Woof!

How adorable is the new addition to the Pin the Tail games on my etsy shop? You tell me! I fell in love as I was drawing it... Notice the bone pattern in the background, drawn by me as well :)

Pattern Bundles

I always look for ways to play with color and to find a good use for my doodles and drawings.
These adorable pattern bundles are just the thing!
For those who are lovers of traditional scrap booking, book making, stationary, cards, among other crafts, these designs will prove to be a great complement to your creative ideas. All of the patterns are created by me, and you can find them for sale at my Etsy store!

Cute Stuff

 

Besides all the serious design stuff I absolutely love drawing/illustrating cutesy stuff. I love hot pink, bows, ribbon, glitter and other girly things. So here are a couple of things that have been occupying my hands and my thoughts lately. I love birdies, so chickadees proved to be a source of inspiration for several designs, and let's not forget "the puppy-faced bunny" just in time for easter!
These and more will soon be available as wallpaper for your phone on my Etsy store. If you like the design and would like me to convert it into something else for you, just message me!

Vectorized Portrait

I love doing portraits, I don't care if they are in oil, pastel or digitally drawn. My husband was the model for this one (he is of course, one of my favorite people to look at <3). I was experimenting with color and the simplification of shapes. I think I can still simplify even more, but I didn't want it to be to abstract. Which color do you like the best? I'm particularly drawn to the yellow one, that specific hue reminds me of mangoes (kind of weird right?).

If you would like me to vectorize your portrait, just send me a message for more information!

Looking for the perfect gift for that special someone? Have his/her picture turned into a digitally hand-drawn stencil!

Cheesy & Sketchy

 

 

The other day I sketched a mouse (shown on top) on my phone with the stylus my friend Vanessa got me for my birthday. I loved the shapes and the simplicity of it, so I re-drew it and developed it further in Adobe Illustrator. I thought it was an appropriate time, since Sunday I painted a cat and posted it in my other blog.
How cute is he?!?
I made another variation of this one, but I will show you on my next post...

Sushi!!!

I found the most adorable tumblr blog while browsing the internet the other day...
It is called "Daily Sushi" and it was created by Argentinian blogger, web developer and illustrator: Joel Betancourt. His idea is to feature a sushi-related illustration every day, so it is wonderful place to find inspiration and to discover fellow artists working on both digital and natural media.
Your visit to this site will be highly appetizing, even if your palette does not really care for this Japanese delicacy.

Bird and Ribbon Illustration

 This is an image from my "digital sketchbook." I wanted to draw a bird and use the colors of the Quetzal (even though it is not supposed to be one). I also wanted the bird to hold a ribbon which then became the initial of my name.
I created it in Adobe Illustrator, my all-time favorite software!!! For all of you starting as graphic designers or creative professionals, that is definitely a must-have!!!
