Today's Yeko Monito is dedicated to my sister Norma Yeli, I posted a video of this cartoon's intro on facebook, and she reminded me this was her favorite cartoon and wanted me to make a Yeko Monito of it, so I did, i hope you like it sister.
Heidi is a 70's Anime Cartoon, of a little girl who lived in the Swiss Alps, sweet cartoon, I might make a whole series of famous cartoons, but we'll see. I also posted the video of the cartoon intro on here in case any of you want to watch it.

In
El Texan
A friend of mine requested this, so here it is, this one was kind of a challenge as i always mention my lack of drawing skills make little details a little harder for me, the hardest part i think was the Longhorn on his belt buckle and the hat.
El Texan or El Texano, my friend is from Texas and a Longhorn (UT) so she wanted me to do a Ranchero guy with the Longhorns logo somewhere, and this is what I came up with I hope everyone likes it.

And just like that Yeko is back, this is the first one of the Monito Series where I use gradients, one of my friends from back home StakPortfolio (Jose Quintero) is doing his own series i guess., and he plays with gradients a lot, so I said why not, and this is what I came up with, I am a big fan of Lucha Libre and Blue Demon so that is the reason for this Monito.

This one is dedicated to my friend Jorge since he is the one that pushed for this one.
Very self explanatory Mexican Gangster dude with tattoos, I put LUPITA on his chest to resemble how cholos get their gf names tattooed, I had a lot of fun with this Yeko Monito, that i had to make two versions one without a shirt and the other one with the usual cholo outfit.
so here it is today's design CHOLO!

El Club America, my favorite soccer team, they are playing the Mexican derby this weeekend against some team no body cares about...
The Monito is not an actual player, I based the look of it in no other than myself haha, dark skin, lame hair, tired eyes, oh well I hope everyone likes it.
The tittle comes from one of their quotes/phrases, Odiame Mas which means Hate me more, there is no middle point with America, you aether Hate them or Love them, so here it is.
ODIAME MAS!

EL CHAPULIN COLORADO...
The Red Grasshopper was a tv series back in the 70's and 80's i think?
and it is still very popular these days, I think it has become part of the Mexican culture, I want to make a whole series of monitos for Chespirito, I just hope i don't get in trouble, but for now here it is El Chapulin Colorado

Finally I am back!!!
I have been so busy with work and other projects that I havent post in a long time, but here I am again.
About two weeks go I attended the Latinos in Action Conference, and met a couple of dudes from Cool Speak, Carlos Ojeda Jr. and Ernesto Mejia, I was very impressed with them, so I promise I'd make them a Monito.
and here they are. Carlos I based his cartoon on the facial expression I though he was making when he graduated from High School and his friends were all shouting CHU CHU, and Ernesto's was all about his outfit, vest and tie.

A leader of the Mexican revolution in 1910.
The dude is a Hero, I remember hearing about him before I even started learning about him in school, he is a very popular character in Mexico, I wrote "Tierra y Libertad" (land and freedom) at the top because I guess that was one of his sayings.
It took me some time to figure out how to do the bullet belt, but at the end i think it looks pretty decent, one more of the Yeko Monito series

Estoy seguro que alguien le va a poder dar un buen uso...
I started restoring my yeko portfolio, to a more personal portfolio instead of a commercial portfolio I have been kinda busy lately with other projects, that is why i havent have much time to launch my portfolio, but today i created one of the sliders for it, and i it is about my Monito Series, I hope you all like it, don't forget to like my Yeko Facebook page.
Obviously a Valentine's day post.
I don't really have someone to make cartoons for, for valentines so...
Super self explanatory what would cupid say to all those who don't have a significant other to celebrate valentines with. I mean its obvious that you can celebrate with people you love such as your family and friends, but our society usually makes it about romantic relationships so here it is, a cupid who ran out of arrows.
This is a little out of my style, but this wasn't originally my idea.
About a week ago my friend Mauricio Pablo posted a picture of one of his drawings on fb, we talked and he made a sketch so I could make it digital.
About a week ago my friend Mauricio Pablo posted a picture of one of his drawings on fb, we talked and he made a sketch so I could make it digital.
So here it is, I made some changes to the original sketch based on my abilities, and what i thought it was best for the design of the sketch. by the way this made me remember why I always try to keep it simple, it is a pain to be drawing every little detail, specially because if you know me you know I am not good at drawing, and it takes me double the time t
o come up with stuff like that, but I was really happy with the overall result, what I like the most are the cracks on the heart.
I posted a picture of the progress, It started with Mauricio's sketch, when to Illustrator, and finished details in Photoshop.

I haven't posted in who knows how long but oh well
The Latinos in Action (a nonprofit i work for) confeence is coming up in March, a lot of the colleges and universities here in Utah have a chapter of Latinos in Action at their school, and they are all going to be at the conference.
So thats what my post is about today, I woke up at 5:30 AM today i have no clue WHY!, but instead of wasting time laying in bed i started designing the shirts for the Colleges, and this is what i came up with.
by the way the picture is kinda big, so it might take a minute or two to load

Frida Kahlo was a Mexican painter, and to be honest I don't know a lot about her, I have seen many of her paintings and self portraits, and I know she is an icon when it comes to Mexican art.
This is the first one of the Munequito series that has eyes, a mouth, and the body shape that all the new ones will have, it took me a long time to finish this one, I was really happy with the result.

Honor a quien honor merece! its al old saying from back home. It is more than obvious why today's design is about Martin Luther King JR.
But more than just being Martin Luther King JR. I did it because he is a very big influence.
Live by example they say and i think one of the best examples you can live by is this man's, there is a quote from him that I LOVE and made me want to make a tribute design about him today
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”
so here it is i hope you all like it. Don't forget to visit my portfolio at: www.yeko.co.uk
