Narval


Narval, is another take of the unicorn simbolism idea of a previous illustration, Secrets. I went back to my older technique of making the digital painting seem more free and traditional-like, while still leaving some lineart. I´m experimenting a bit to try to decide where I pursue a cleaner style, or a more "traditional painting" style on my digital works.
The colors have more gradients and are better, unfurtunately, the blog format doesn´t help. You can see a better version at my deviantart account 
Tools: black pen for initial lineart + photoshop+ tablet.

La Caida


La Caída (The Fall)
Oils in MDF.
Measurements: 35 X 72cm



"Don´t break me down
I've been travelin' too long
I've been trying too hard
With one pretty song

I hear the birds on the summer breeze,
I drive fast, I am alone in the night
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble,
but I, I've got a war in my mind
So, I just ride, just ride,

I just ride, just ride"

f
rom "Ride" by Lana Del Rey . Album- Born to Die (The Paradise Edition).

La Creacion de Eva




La Creación de Eva/ Eve's Creation

I tried to continue being careful creating a soft color pallete with some strokes of more saturated colors. It was also important in this picture to convey a sense of rythm and dancing from the way the curves related to each other.
Tools: black pen + photoshop+ tablet

Secretos




Secretos/Secrets
Continuing the series of illustrations, this time attempting to reach a middle-ground between something more graphic-designy and a proper digital painting. I worked very hard on the piece, specially to get the color pallete to be harmonious and the contrast relationships to be accurate. However, the file conversion from my photoshop file to a .PNG (JPEG´s quality was too bad, so it was quickly discarded) was a headache. I almost had to do 26 samples, before arriving to a decent result, and it has still lost a lot of the file quality and small gradients the original image had. Hopefully, this will not happen on the printing stage as well.
Regarding the concept, as you´ve probably noticed, I included  the lilies and the orchids again, since their meaning is quite opposite and appropiate to what I wanted to portray, alongside with the medieval simbolism of the unicorn.

Guadalupe


I tried to play around with a different color pallete this time, using more vibrant colors and a tropical atmosphere. I really wanted to portray a certain kind of feeling in this picture, but I am completely at a loss about how to describe it, but I hope you guys can see it through.
