Religion, Fe, y Cultura!Today, Juan DiegoBack home (in Mexico) today is known as "El Dia de La Virgen" and I am not gonna go into details of how, where and why we celebrate this day, all im going to say is I am loyal to my faith, and I love my culture, so here it is!Again the same shape for my characters, i...
Going back to creating characters with shapes, and after almost a week of not coming up with anything new, I give you POLECIA.Its suppose to be Policia, but back home people who are stereotypical from a lower class or considered not educated use pronounce the word like this.This guy is a clingy cop from Yekotitlan the name of a town I invented.Remember to...
This morning I was more than committed to designing a permanent logo once and for all, but the outcome wasn't what I expected.I love the colors, and I think that's what I am gonna stick with, the target was to go for that Japanese-ish look, the white in the middle its suppose to be a Y, but it ended up looking a lot...
El Maistro (the mechanic) Its suppose to be El Mecanico which actually means The Mechanic but Maistro is what we call them back home, some....SUPER SIMPLE! thats what I usually aim for, and to be honest i think this one is one of my favorites, i think i just found the shape for all my characters. This guy is wearing his nice blue...
This is probably my best illustration yet, it is very simple but the meaning of it and the fact that this will be all over the place.For those of you who don't know I am Ballet West's Graphic Designer/WebMaster, well they are doing this new thing called, Sports Night at The Ballet, which I am not really sure what it means yet, but...
I've been really lazy, the last couple weeks, holidays, work, portfolio, family and all that cool stuff, but I am back.Yeko Studios is what I would want to call my business when I get to that point, i saw something like this somewhere but I don't remember where, and I thought well that looks easy and cool, so i went at it, i...

This one took me longer than I thought it would I was hoping to finish it in a day, but I usually finish and retouch my design in a day designs at work (hopefully no one from works actually reads this) but any ways, I give you COCHINITOCochinito (little piggy) I kinda wanted to play with shapes, arcs, and all that stuff on...
Latinos in action is a Class/Program Both at the Jr. high and High School level, that inspires bilingual Latino students to utilize their language skills in supporting their school and district community and propels these students toward a career through education.I went SUPER simple today, since I've been designing for this guys, thats the pattern I try to keep simple and eye catching,...
I finished this at Barnes and Noble while waiting for a client, thought it wouldn't take more than two hours to complete this but i was wrongThis was by far the longest design yet, I wanted to do something with text that looked cool, and tried a few different things until I came up with this, It was done in Photoshop and letter...
Today's design was very special, because it was inspired by my son Ale, he drew it on a piece of paper, and we both traced it on illustrator.He was very exited about it, everything started super cute, and lets do a cute huevo (egg) then I dont know if it was the fact that he is not over halloween yet, but he wanted...
El Movimiento its a company that does pretty much EVERYTHING haha, they have a radio show, the dude is a DJ, they do promotions, etc. he is been asking me to do his logo for a long time, so I decided today was the day, and here it is...This one was kinda hard, I came up with many ideas that I thought were...

While browsing pictures on the computer I came across a picture from a guy doing graffiti, and it reminded me of the time when I used to do crappy gratifies on walls back home, so I said why not, drop the mouse and lets go back to color pencils and paper.This is a graffiti of my sons name "Alessandro" Im usually not that...
I am not gonna lie i got a little lazy today, but here is the design of the day.This is the design of a taxi from back home, I made something like this along time ago in flash, I just wanted to make it a vector see how it turned out, I could probably just have exported outlines to illustrator but I wanted...
Day two of Design in a Day, i was thinking about making a JellyFish, but SOMEONE Im not gonna say names (Adriana) Recommended that I illustrated my Facebook status, I was thinking about doing some characters to illustrate it but that would have taken me way more than a day, so i just decided to use typography and had fun with it, i...
This is the first (i hope) of many designs I will be doing to keep up my skills.I decided to pick this tutorial to improve my illustrator skills i also loved the colors used for the sun, they are bright and very eye catching, and it looks very simple but nice, there are a few things I think I could change but this...
