Wait for It — 🔊First of all, you need to watch this with the sound on 🔊 Now please read this story. I don't know about you, fellow human, but sometimes I get projects that remind me that I'm getting a little too comfortable. While you are working on it, it may be a bit frustrating, but once it's over, you appreciate the whole experience. You appreciate being challenged by the client. You appreciate when th...
My Second Anniversary! — Two years ago, on this day, I started working full-time as a freelancer. I thought this was going to be a temporary thing. But here we are two years later; I'm still doing it! It hasn't been easy; in fact, it has been super challenging, but during this time, I've been so blessed to be able to work on some fantastic projects with some fantastic clients. Sometimes I can't believe the kind of thi...

Happy Thanksgiving! — I'm finally able to share this animation. Boy, this was a fun project. A little challenging, but fun nonetheless. Lately, I've been working a lot with Lottie and because of it, I need to rely more on skills than tools, which is cool, but sometimes a little frustrating. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this animation as much as I enjoyed working on it. But even more important, I hope you enjoy your fam...
Style Test — Hi-Ho! Here is an illustration I did a few weeks ago to test a style. For this project, I also did a little experiment of my own and put to the test a book I got on Kickstarter called "Dynamic Reference Sheets" by Kibbitzer. The book includes a LOT of references(male and female), and it helped me give my characters are more natural/organic body language. If you are interested in the book, you ...
🎃🧛‍♂️Happy Halloween 🧛‍♂️🎃 — 🔊First of all, TURN THE SOUND ON! 🔊You will be glad you did 😉 I always like to mess with my avatar and make it seasonal, but this time I wanted to do something extra special for @dribbble weekly warm-up. I did this animation using a template I build using joysticks n' sliders. You can check that template here! I hope you all enjoy it and Happy Halloween! Don't forget to hit that "L" and "Sha...

Hilltop Rats Tee — I've said before, and I'll say it again. Designing for bands is one of my favorite things to do; in fact, I got into design because my band needed a logo. To this day, I still design everything from flyers to all sorts of merchandise for the band. With that introduction, I want to share one of my latest projects that is a t-shirt I designed for the Tacoma, WA band, Hilltop Rats. I hope you al...

Emoji Me — On my Instagram stories, I've been talking about building a template to animate my avatar using joystick 'n sliders. The purpose of it is to be able to use it in videos related to my brand, maybe even bring back my youtube channel and have illustrated me instead of real me. Who knows? The possibilities are endless! (ish) I asked for people to send me emojis so I could try to replicate them jus...

2015 vs 2019 — It's fun to see how my style evolves over the years. On 2015 I created this monkey as a mascot for my band Agente 86 (www.agente86.rocks.) I've been tuning it up here and there, but I didn't realize how much it changed from the original version. Always fun working on projects where I can combine music and design!
