Baby kingdom

I made this illustrations for the walls of the nursery of my baby Anya(pictures coming in the future when she gets here :) ).

But thought they where to cute not to share. So I'm showing them to you and if you want your own print of it, is now available on my Society6 store!! 

You can get this designs in a variety of print sizes, pillows, wall clocks, bathroom curtains, mugs, etc.

Hope you enjoy!









1 Dibujo al dia en abril / 1 Drawing a day in april 2014

#1dibujoaldiaenabril is a Instagram movement in the Dominican Republic that invites everyone who is interested in drawing to make one a day for that month. A list of words is shared with one concept per day that everyone works with. Is super fun and I know is old and that I haven't being sharing much here but I found the folder with my files and wanted to share some of my last year drawings. 

Hand drawn and digital coloring in Photoshop.

This was a proposal for a promo that didn't see the light.

Tip for designers amd illustators: when the client don't like it or want to go in another direction but you love what you did: use it in your portolio or show it on your blog because no job is lost and everything you create will give you something in return even if that is just experience. 

And who knows if that becomes the piece that will call your next client.

Am drawing Everyday on April


As part of a gig on Instagram am making a drawing every day. There's a theme list. And today's was Hair Style. 

Here in the Dominican Republic we do a hair style that more than a hair style is a thing you do to your hair that makes it flat and shinny, you keep it while you're at home and when sleeping and the next day or at night when you go out your hair is ready to party.

Every women does it even me at least twice a year but every women does it and a lot of them on daily basis. The name of the style is Tubiand they say is miracules and sure is. So Inspired on a Hindu Goddess that's  how Santa Tubi or Saint Tubi was born. And pray to her next time you do a tubi your hair calms down.

How to make a tubi separate your hair in half brush it around your hear and pin it. Repet until all your hair is pined making almost a halmet. Put a net on top and pray to the Santa Tubi she will be able to do the work.

Ps.Is it a dominican Thing or someone does this somewhere else?

But even if other people does it can't imagine they'll do it more than we do.

Just have fun

 
Soon making an Illustration of this Video. Don't take life so serius, making fun of yourself is so fun!  

Give yourself a break


Friday is almost here, lay back for a moment put on a song that makes you happy, close your eyes for 5 minutes and forget about the rest. 


Giving you breaks to take care of your self makes your life better and also the rest of the day less stressful.  


No need to move from your desk (if you work in one like me) or stop what you doing for to long to do this.

 

Today I picked Mumford & Sons, Here are the Songs am listening to...  

If you want just pick one and enjoy the .... out of it :)
