Been a few days of total lockdown and kids schedule is still unfathomable. As usual, silly animation in between jobs (done in one night max, which happens to be my shift these days). Stay healthy! #motioncomics #parenting #lockdown #coronavirus #freelancerdad #freelancerlife #illustratorsoninstagram #adobeaftereffects #kids https://www.instagram.com/p/B-P4q9LqW_m/?igshid=zwtm79xuz65c
With mainstream sports gone for a while, classics like caber tossing, cherry spitting and slippery stairs are here to get you glued to your screens these lockdown days. Illos for @espn. AD by Linda Poucher.

I drew some of the most eccentric moments of Heavyweight Boxing icon Deontay Wilder for @espn .He lost the title on Saturday and was defeated for the first time ever, really interesting guy to illustrate though. #deontaywilder #sportsillustration #illustration #comic #portraitillustration #portrait #digitalart #digitalillustration #wacomart #adobephotoshop #illustratorsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B8_nFTpKS40/?igshid=44c83wd0l1m5
This small spot Superbowl illo wasn't used by the client in the end but after watching the jaw-dropping performance of JLo and Shakira I thought it was worth updating their outfits and throw some flames and sparks 😊 #superbowl2020 #superbowlmidtimeshow #jenniferlopez #shakira #editorialillustration #illustratorsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B8MX8JRiS7n/?igshid=c1jbvur94pcl
And the @chiefs conquered the Superbowl in a great game ! @patrickmahomes , @cheetah and @killatrav can now chill in Miami Beach. New drawing I did for @espn social media. Swipe image for close up and the sketch/alternative universe that never happened (maybe next year 49ers!) #superbowl #sportsillustration #editorialillustration #kansaschiefs #patrickmahomes #tyreekhill #traviskelce #comicstyle #adobephotoshop https://www.instagram.com/p/B8HNAPCirsz/?igshid=1hg2ieckar6gw
How to make a flyer in 8 seconds (or how to reuse walk cycle tests with After Effects 😁) . Quick illo I did for the new screenprinting workshop @esdipberlin @voltaire.lab #illustration #animation #motioncomics #motiongraphics #comics #digitalart #digitalillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/B73cF6DCTTl/?igshid=qxgeczgqaywa
A great project from last year I hadn't shared yet . I had the pleasure to participate in a fully illustrated issue of Werte magazine, contributing with a portrait of Triodos chairman Aartde Geus and a page about sustainable goals. Beautiful design by @bpcontent and art direction by @geschewendt (who was incredibly patient and flexible with my schedule last summer) #illustration #adobephotoshop #editorialillustration #portraitillustration #portrait #comic https://www.instagram.com/p/B7lUVkwivUO/?igshid=18qy3d28so7gt
I have not synced this Tumblr blog with my Insta account in ages. Trying to get up to date with recent stuff. Little animation I did over my own drawing featured in THE ART of STRANGER THINGS : Visions from the Upside Down, published by Penguin a few weeks ago.
Here go some spot illos for @sportsnet about high performing athletes getting back on track after pregnancy and maternity leaves. #illustration #illustratorsoninstagram #maternity #sportsillustration #melissabishop #meaghanmikkelson #taylerhill #editorialillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Q_sRoC5Qe/?igshid=bvvnydscukri
Drawing the battle scene from the last Avengers move just for fun in between commissions. It started as a composition exercise (the sequence is stunning and thought it would be nice to try framing the whole thing in one pose) but then I had some time free. From sketch to final in a day.
I collaborated with German children´s Magazine GEOmini to portrait some famous pirates/anti-heroes. Here are the printed mags with Robin Hood and Klaus Störtebeker. I sketched in Procreate with the iPadPro, inked by hand with a brush and cleaned up using a mix Manga Studio and Photoshop.
Time for some fan art of the Guardians of the Galaxy. Turning a sketchbook doodle into a quick full color illo using Procreate and the iPadPro. A few hours in 45 seconds :-)
Some years ago, when I was still an art student living in New York, I did a piece about information bias in media which became sort of an appreciated image in my portfolio. During these last weeks we have seen an unprecedented animosity and disrespect against the press and journalism at an institutional level -all over the world but more dramatically in the US-, so I felt it was about time for an updated illo with a more current and fair view . There might be not such thing as objective information, but amidst the chaos of fake news, social media and dubious leaks, we need independent journalism and accurate information more than ever. Governments who mock or deny that basic right are certainly on the wrong path. Original piece below!
A couple of pictures of my event at the Apple Store in New York some weeks ago! Really fun to make a punk character from scratch and have the chance to talk about my work in front of many illustrators and friends.
My first entry ever for the monthly Character Design Challenge. It was centaur-themed so here she goes doing a kick-kick-flip-flip! Again, I drew her with the iPad pro and Procreate app, which work nice and seamless together...
Another illustration using the iPad pro and Procreate only...getting ready for my event at the Apple Store in NY. Full video with the process in my Facebook page
