First time painting my face like this! Inspired by Sylvia Ji's awesome Calavera Catrina Paintings.
Below is a picture of the painting I tried to emulate, "Por Vida":

The results:

Took me almost 2 hours. I have to say not bad for my first try! Next time I'll get some nice brushes for the small details. :)

I also got arsty fartsy on my poompkin. Made the "Forever Alone" dude on one side, and of course, the human centipede-y on the other.

My Progress so far...

2010-05-28T01:20:00.000-07:00

Decided to do a 3D version of my character, Bruxa Maluca. It's hard trying to turn something flat and graphic into something with volume and space and ish. Hopefully I don't sleep on this one and take a million yrs to do or just never finish. New motto: Gotta finish what you start!

In the meantime, Japanese CHOLAS!

Future of Arizona? tsk tsk...

2010-04-26T16:38:00.000-07:00

Watching M.I.A's new vid sorta reminded me of what might happen in AZ after passing that new law (but in a more crazy-extreme-far-out way of course). As a brown person, I totally feel that this law is racist. Because let's face it; not all illegal immigrants come from south of the border--or have a brown complexion. Sure they make up for the majority of illegals that come to the states...but still, I think this law is gonna make things uglier, and not really solve the problem. Anywho, enough about drama-fo-yo mama-politics; Can't wait to see M.I.A. again this July =p

I like a nice music video...

2010-04-12T18:20:00.000-07:00

Especially one that inspires me to draw...

PS: The chick reminds me of my mum when she was young-minus the testicle stabbing.
And I want Eric Wareheim to direct B+A's future music videos. ^_^

Nothin' sexier than having severed baby arms around your waist I say...

2010-04-07T10:51:00.001-07:00

waiting3.mp3

Was listening to this awesome mix by DJ Umb called India Calling...
which then inspired me to draw up Kali à la Pin Up...
which then gave me the idea to create a future series of Sacrilegious-yet Sexy Pin Ups.

So hopefully, if I'm not too lazy...I'll create the next blasphemous babe...

I was trying to draw something of a Marvel/Bruce Timm style--because I need more of that in my work..but instead, ended up drawing me a zombie.
It's hard to get away from that comfort zone (which consists of drawing penguins, hot chicks, monsters and trannies)...I must push harder!
~~ Push it really goood. Damn. Salt-N-Pepa stuck in my head now.

Practicing for next Kung Fu Competition.

2010-03-03T15:00:00.001-08:00

So...Just drew a little sloth for a little friend from far away.
And the other day...
I was my friend's hair model for a Disconnection Haircut Class at her salon. It was her first time teaching, and I've always had her style/cut/dye my hair since I was 18--So I wasn't nervous or anything. I wish her students luck though...Because they're going to have to recreate the SAME cut on either a real person or mannequin. Intense shit yo!

Damn aRLO, It's about time!

2010-02-11T02:23:00.001-08:00

Indeed it is. I don't know why I haven't done this sooner. But today I have decided, after a nice bathroom break, that I should start a Tranny series (Good incentive for me to update this blog too!).

I don't know, there's just something about the lady-boys that I just...!
The first to pop this series' cherry goes to my friend Kev; who did a tranny scene in Nic Chev's short film, The Last Laugh.

Anyway, enough blabbin', and without further adieu, I present to youu...
TRAN-SERIES NUMERO UNO!

That's Mr. Sugah Lips to you bustah ;)

Vote for my new art entry!!

2010-01-19T18:43:00.000-08:00

Happy new year everyone!

Hope all is well.

Just want 5 seconds of your time to check out this entry that I made, and rate it Please.

http://www.artistswanted.org/feiticeiraflame

You can vote once a day, and it would help a lot.

Idk where I'm ranked since I joined in the very last minute.

But it's fun to do these things. I think it helps me figure out where I'm at in life by asking me to simply write a short paragraph of myself.

I wish I could have put in more art entries, but I'm kinda poor and they charge 10 bucks for each entry, so I chose the ones that best fit me as a self-portrait.

The Flippin' the Bird One is of me wearing a dress I designed for the iSCREAMgarbage line. I chose that image because for almost 10 years, I've been working on this project/line with my friend Rebekah. I'm her lead artist, and model. I also contribute my mind and thoughts to the iSg blog on Weds. (So check that out)

The 100 Years Old is basically me in the future, and how awesome it's going to be. I've loved penguins for God knows how long, and I still don't know why. I think they are little aliens from outer space that just accidently crash landed into the Antarctic and thought it was a pretty cool place to chill. ha get it? chill? =p

The Split Thoughts One Heart is just another version of how I function. I seem to have a weird wishy-washy mentality-Some may say unstable. But in the end, I tend to follow my heart, cos I feel that it's the only thing pure inside me. My brain is too fucked up. Take me to the kittens!

Ps: Also if you haven't... try to donate some money to Haiti. I'm poor but I was still able to. I know there's a lot of poverty/corruption in this world, but Idk, it felt really good to do something that's going to make a difference in somebody else's life. I hope that country will one day be stable...It's tough. Idk life is tough. But we can make it happen. :)

She asked me to draw her. Haha I don't know what she was thinking (since i'm kinda scared of drawing real girls). Couldn't decide if I liked mono w/ some color accents, or just colored. So I just did both =p.

Bruxa Maluca a.k.a. Crazy Vodou Bitch!

2009-08-06T18:56:00.001-07:00

A female character I've been (slowly) creating at the Animation Academy...I'm not really into drawing comic-book style designs, but I'm making an effort to. So I've been looking at a lot of Bruce Timm, J. Scott Campbell, etc. for references (but I noticed that they don't have any black characters...maybe I haven't searched hard enough cos i'm not a comic-book nerd =p ) ...

get over here!

Creating different styles by just meddling with layers, brushes, colors, etc...

Masking tool is one of my best friends =D

Made this doodle of Bosco Delrey and wasn't sure which version i liked most. Just fiddled with layers and stuff. Drew it in Illustrator.

Old drawing of my friend Adam...Was a sketch, but been wanting to color it and just never had time to until recently...
