Hows it going!
I just wanted to share a couple things I've been working on. As of last month I've been working on a children's book called Electrical Wizard! Written by a great author Elizabeth Rusch. It will be published by a great company CandleWick Press. The story is about Nikola Tesla, he was a great electrical inventor! The official book will be out in late 2012 or very early 2013! The second children book is about Baseball Mud! It will be published by Lerner Publishing. Great stories and excited to illustrate them!
One more thing, the piece underneath was for fun, I wanted to paint with a over all blue pallet. I added a design element around the piece with scrap design paper that I had for a while. ENJOY!! Have a good Weekend everyone!!

Hat Maker
Hows it going everyone!!
I've been playing around with different approaches in painting. This painting is about a man that makes hats in Frances. Im experimenting with acrylic, gouache and ink. Hope you enjoy!!
Quote:
“My imagination is on Fire. The universe towers in my mind a great overpowering mystery. The significance of the tiniest speck of bark on the pine tree assumes the proportions of the infinite sky. My brain almost bursts with the effort to really appreciate the meaning of life, of existence. I ardently promise with all my soul to do my best to make my short life of use, to add an infinitesimal light to the world”

Mermaids
Hows it going everyone!!
I've finally finished this piece. I've added a little bit about my step by step process.
The first step is the idea and thumbnails. I used tracing paper for my thumbnail sketches and then refine them until I get a solid idea. I was going to add my ideas of thumbs but its a lot of thumbnails that it will take up the whole site. Ha!
For this piece I got a solid sketch idea and started working around it. I've added some of the sketches that I've drawn with out reference.
Second step is after I have a solid idea I go ahead and shoot reference and refine the drawing even more, just to get the right proportions of the figure and other aspects of the drawing.
My previous post was my final drawing. after I have a very solid drawing I go ahead and transfer it to a bigger paper. My final drawing was drawn in Rives BFK tan paper with graphite and then painted with washes of acrylic and gouache and ink. I've added some images with steps of approaching the painting. Hope you enjoy, if you have any other question about my process write a comment. Have a good 4th of JULY!!
