INDY CAR ILLUSTRATIONS

This is for a newspaper special page about IndyCar Series. Is about the race, pilots and all about Mexicans being in this competition.
This is the pilot and car.

SNAKE BOOKMARKS

These are some bookmarks i made with gouache.
I love work over black paper, colors gain more brightness. I should probably buy a sketchbook of black paper.

MARCH READING

  

During March wanted to read something a bit long and more interesting. I ended reading this books. My favorite was Carol despite the flat story, maybe because i had movie scenes in my mind it wasn't boring. The girl on the train was boring and unreal as hell, i still don't understand why is so popular. I hope you find nice books to read and recommend.

The Virgin Suicides / Jeffrey Eugenides
Carol / Patricia Highsmith
The girl on the train
 / Paula Hawkins
Mile 81 / Stephen King

BOOKMARKS!

I like to have something nice between pages instead of tickets or any other piece of paper.

This year I decided to buy more books and because of that I've been needing some bookmarks, I painted some.

WATERCOLOR CRYSTALS

I only painted three crystals because it was a little difficult to paint, the texture is weird and because of the game of light, but it was fun at the end. 

BEAUTIFUL HANDMADE POTTERY

Pottery i would like to have in my tiny kitchen. 

COLORFUL BEETLES

I remember when i was little going to field to seek some bright and colorful beetles. I liked to watching them fly and moving on the grass. My sister and i had a carton box to collect some of them and compare which were bigger and brighter. We use to draw them on our school notebooks with color pencils and crayons. This beetles remember me those days.
This illustrations are part of Inktober challenge.

A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE / A DANCE WITH DRAGONS

 

I can't wait to see the next season. And also i can't believe that John Snow is dead, he is one of the main characters and he is part of the prophecies. I hope they make the story similar to the book.

A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE / A FEAST FOR CROWS

A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE / A STORM OF SWORDS

The best part, the red wedding, unbelievable.

A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE / A CLASH OF KINGS

The second book in the serie and i haven't read it yet. Has taken me years to finish the first book, because i was reading other books. But i have an idea of what happen. My favorite part is when Daenerys find her dragons which were stolen, and when the army of white walkers shows up and starts to clump.

GOUACHE BOUQUET, GOODBYE SPRING

I've painted some bouquets in gouache, it's been a long time since i used gouache and i really like it. The best thing is that I can make layers and layers of colors and be less worried about making a mistake and ruin everything, like in watercolor painting.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE / A GAME OF THRONES

 This is the first book in the serie A Song of Ice and Fire, A Game of Thrones. At this point everybody knows what Game of Thrones is. As a fan i did this watercolor version of the well known cover book. 

Without any doubt, the main part in the book, as in the tv show, is the death of Ned Stark, Lord of Winterfell. 

He is so naive. 

SOME INCREDIBLE WATERCOLOR ARTISTS THROUGH HISTORY

Rosas / Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912) 

Watercolor artists have made very important and significant work and have marked stages and movements. They were incredibly talented and they could capture the essence of the places, the personality of the characters and bright colors of nature in landscapes.

Thinking about it and how the style has evolved i have been searching paintings and  selected some ones.

I love the styles, techniques and details on them. Please take a moment to admire every piece of true art.

Enjoy.
