I finished this illustration just yesterday... I am working on a book and this is one of the finished pages.
I always thought that all the people and animals in the Circus were part of a big family... at least we can clearly see that they trust and support each other as a family.
If you like what you are seeing please check out my online portfolio or even better join my Artist Page in Facebook! or if you are more into fast sketches you can also check my sketch book out... See you there!

This weeks sketch... I decided to go for a creature/monster desguised as a Jack o Lantern.
I totally loved it...
I have been SUPER Focused on improving my overall skills, (I wake up everyday at 5:00 just to sketch for a couple of hours before I go to work), and Monday Artday is a great way to keep improving my creativity... Anyway I hope you like it

So in a couple of days is my dads birthday, and he asked for an illustration... he is an architect and likes art... so I decided to make something refering to buildings, but also with a more artsy feeling...
I am not crazy about it... but I think it came out pretty good for being the second digital illo I have ever made.

I made this illustration as a Christmas gift for my wife. She is dancing on our bed with our 2 ferrets
the one she is holding is called Man.bear.pig as the South Park character and the one holding her leg is called Maricica (a Romanian typical name)

This book became a great project after many artists decided to donate their own work.
Every artist in the book will illustrate one story and the funds will be donated to help sick children.
If you want to learn more please visit http://goodstogold.com
I already got my story from the author and made the first illustration... which I HATED so now I have been working really hard to make a more artsy and deep representation of the story.
Here is the illustration I finished: (but will not be using)

Here is a snippet of a project I have been working on.
The book has no publisher yet... but I am very optimistic and think it will be available by the end of the year.
The story is about a Robot that wants more in life than just being a robot so he goes out and looks for his real call trying to fit in as many different things in many different places.
These are only the first rough sketches... many of them will never be published and most of the story is still unillustrated...
I will post the sketches in the order they were intended, but bear in mind that there might still be illustrations in between.
Anyway I would love if you could give me your opinion.

This is a character study I was doing for a book... then all of a sudden I got a new idea and I kindda forgot about it...
I didnt really like the boy's face but who cares I am not going to continue with this project... or at least not for now.
