Upcoming exhibition: Running plants

A series of new paintings and prints by illustrator Ana Aranda and myself will be showcased in the fundraising event that will
take place in Berkeley Marina, alongside with the association One Heart World-Wide  http://oneheartworld-wide.org/

 One Heart World-Wide helps pregnant women in rural communities in Mexico and Nepal
to decrease unattended home births and prevent maternal and newborn deaths.

Currently they have been helping the Tarahumara community in México to cope with the serious hunger problems from the past months.
...

For this collaborative project Ana Aranda and I have been working on recycled/reused and found objects as well as experimenting with printmaking techniques.

Ephemeral: Moon Dog

My friends invited me to draw/paint at Pigeon Point Light House and the surrounding beaches. 

I decided to do ephemeral art and painted the spirit of a Moon Dog on one of the fallen tree trunks. It will be washed away as soon as the rain falls down. 

If you have time, stop by this Light House, so gorgeous! 

Thanx for stopping by!

London!

This poster was made for the Transport of London contest with the theme "Secret London".

I picked the a kid's vision: lots of colors, lots of fun and full of imagination!

(I didn't win but I hope you all like it!!!!)

Peace!

Here's another Children's book dummy I did for a contest. 

This one is a rushed attempt to write and illustrate a story, therefore, it needs a lot of revisions and corrections.

It was an experimental project, I used ink on Mylard, great surface to explore random, uncontrollable textures.

Please, critiques are welcome...  eventhough is in Español....
