Still Quieten

I wanted to create a new portrait series continuing the tradition I started in 2008 with the series called "Despite"

This is the most personal work I've ever created this year. Somehow, all the people here have been influential in my life. Each person in these portraits I've loved or still love with all my heart. There's some people I stopped drawing due to lack of touch or lost of feelings ( not including Montaña ). Like I said, it's very personal.
I enjoyed the time I drew each one.


Total of 15 people, 23 sketches and 11 finals.These are the 11 finals.

Portrait series 
"Still Quieten"
(August - September) 2010
Digital Illustration.
Made in Adobe Illustrator.

I have to make a side note here.
I've been drawing Nattie Gone since 2005 and I find a special interest in the images I make of this character. I made two Nattie Gones the same week and both are so different. I love both, but the strokes and colors are different and it seriously made me think:

How is my stroke?
Is it fluid? organized? sketchy?
How are my colors?
strong? contrast?
Should I even worry about this?
I thinking about it because the consistency here is way off.

6pm “Jugos Sin Azucar”



6pm “Jugos Sin Azucar”

El atardecer simbolizaba el comienzo de mi final del día. Los ventarrones de las 6pm me avisaban que pronto la podía ver. Me ubicaba en su ventana, donde le resumía mi día mientras tomaba de sus jugos sin azúcar. Donde con sus besos descansaba mis ojos, donde me envolvía en su cuello para derramar suspiros de tranquilidad y felicidad.

Screenprinting

This is my first screenprinting project. 
When I was in highschool I refused to take screenprinting lessons because I thought it was useless. Like photography (silly me) I realized this technique is amazing, as well as photography.

I documented the process.


The materials
The design.

I have to say something about theses inks. I used lithographic paint. The red paint is a pain in the ass. It's thick and messy and really hard to work with. The yellow paint is another pain in the ass. Due to its substance the paint is thin and transparent. It takes twice the time to dry. The blue paint is amazing, it's perfect overall. But when I made green paint the yellow took over this cool color.

So here's my 4 hours of pain with the red paint

Forgot to put the paper and I printed the glass

kill the red, kill the red

Linig up the artwork

Bloody red
Blue tryouts





Next day. Green



Finally done after so many hours


This is the result. :)


By the way, the illustration was based on "I shot Andy Warhol" movie. Great movie :)

La Gran Ola del Puente Ortiz



ENGLISH//

This is an illustration I did for my university’s comic and illustration magazine. The theme was to do something about the city, so I did a critique about men peeing on public places. This was the first shocking sight I had to bear since I moved back to Colombia. I see at least one guy peeing in front of me everyday. Seriously, put your dick inside your pants and I use a toilet, while you’re at it, clean your hands. Ugh. So I drew a guy with breasts peeing on the Ortiz bridge in Cali, why breasts? …hummm..

the title was inspired by The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hukosai

ESPAÑOL//

Esta es una ilustración que hice para mi universidad, la revista de historietas e ilustración. El tema era hacer algo sobre la ciudad, hice una crítica acerca de los hombres que orinan en los lugares públicos. Veo por lo menos un tipo orinando delante de mí todos los días. En serio, ponga su pene dentro de los pantalónes y use un inodoro, despues, lavate las manos. Ugh. Así que dibuje un hombre con senos orinando en el puente Ortiz, en Cali, ¿por qué los senos? Hummm ... ..
