VARIOUS WORKS in progress

This was a personal labor of love for me, I created the Rat Rod in Illustrator, I decided to go with flat colors and created the background in Photoshop....

I'm heavily into HOT RODS and Rockabilly, so any chance I get to create stuff like this on my spare time, I usually immerse myself into it.

A total of 2.5 hours...between Photoshop and Illustrator.

This is something I created and Angie was my inspiration as the painting says...

I used India Ink, Japanese traditional Sumi brush, Windsor Newton ultra thin bristle, scanned into Photoshop...PS was used for colors and tones and background creation,,,jumped back into Illustrator to create scroll banner and lettering, hand drew each individual tattoo...

It took me a total of 3.5 hours to finish.

I was messing around with different ink and brush techniques and then decided to throw it into Photoshop and tweaked it some more...

I used up an hour of my time...

This is GAEA....GODDESS of the EARTH...

This was artwork I was commissioned to do for MIAMI DADE COLLEGE, NORTH CAMPUS. I created it for WOMEN's HISTORY MONTH at MIAMI DADE COLLEGE-NORTH CAMPUS.

VECTOR then tweaked in PHOTOSHOP...

This was a design for BLACK HISTORY MONTH at MIAMI DADE COLLEGE-NORTH CAMPUS....it was for a vertical banner.

Banner design for a band I used to front for. Its 15ft across by 6ft. wide. It looked very impressive onstage, everybody seemed to like it.

One in a series of 4 MARVEL COMICS characters transformed into a vinyl toy. All color work was done in Adobe Illustrator first, then I took it to Photoshop for shading in its final phase. Work is pending for now....

A quick color job for a character I created. It is the African thunder god, CHANGO worshipped thru the Afro-Cuban religon-Luqumi or as known as SANTERIA.

ME as a cartoon....Sumi brush, scanned and tweaked P-SHOP style.

Ink drawing on regular 8 1/2 x 11 bristol board, scanned and colored in Adobe Illustrator and tweaked in Photoshop.

Digital painting of a mermaid waiting for what ?, I don't know. I used a picture of my wife Angie sitting in a bar we used to frequent and she looked bored, so I took her picture and upon viewing it on my computer, I visualized the waiting mermaid that got stood up. All done on photoshop, 2 hours...it could be better in my opinion, but what do I know.

One in a series of digital paintings of my father's old neighborhood in Havana, Cuba. more to come...
