New house update 🌻🌿

Hello guys!!! How've you been? I missed you.

I'm so sorry for the radio silence. This past week was rough, but things are slowly coming together.

The worst part of the move is finally done, so theoretically, everything should get better and better from now on! I've been painting furniture non stop since we moved, something we couldn't do in our previous apartment due to the lack of space. Our shelves and tables needed varnish and I also felt a bit adventurous and ...

Stranger // preview + moving update

Hello guys, happy Sunday! 💕

I finished something super quick yesterday and here's a lil preview :)

I miss drawing quick little conceptual illustrations, especially when there're birds telling harsh/ hurtful stuff lol I find it a bit cathartic.

I hope you like it! By the way, the texture used here is from L...

Shirt cut meme // preview!

Hey guys! I got to finish this, here's a little preview 😊

Making this definitely gave me a boost of inspiration to work on my comic !! 

I think I'll post these on IG later today.

Take care!

Sketches, doodles + lil life updates 🍊☀️

Hello my dear patrons! How're you doing?? 🍒✨🐤

Today I have just a few sketchbook pages and some messy doodles to share. I haven't been drawing that much lately, but I wanted to catch up with you because I feel I've been a bit quiet.

Long story short: We're supposed to move next Wednesday but our new kitchen won't be installed and ready until July 10th, so we're planning on asking if que can stay two weeks more in this apartment we're currently in. I really don't want to pu...

How I draw & paint hair // step by step

Hello guys!! Hope you're doing fantastic 🐥✨

Here's a small but highly requested tutorial on how I approach drawing hair! This is what I do 99% of the time, not a mind blowing process at all lol but hope it helps!

Just for extra clarification, this is what I mean by selecting with the lasso. The first pic shows how my selections normally look, then I apply a bit of gradient from a side (trying to avoid painting the whole selection) and second pic is how it should look! You can...

Water superheroine // color sketches

Hi guys!! How're you doing? ❤️

Today I got my copy of a book I worked last December and it's always really nice to see your stuff printed on a pretty book!! It was going to be in full color at first but then it seems like there was a change of plans and they went for a "sketchbook feel" approach, which I really liked too. 

But I thought about sharing with you the color versions I did since they won't be seeing the daylight anytime soon 😂

Here's Maritza, my water-...

New coloring pages 🌜🐟

Attached below are the .png files. Feel free to use them for practice!

Cheers,

Ohuhu's 5th anniversary // Trying a new technique 🌜☄️

Heyyy guys! Hope you're doing well! 🌈✨

I wanted to share with you some new art I just finished to post on Tuesday :D Ohuhu reached out a month ago to collaborate for their 5th year anniversary and ask me to do a post using their markers. Of course I said yes because I've been enjoying their markers  lot and they are no doubt the best Copic alternative out there. They also were kind enough to send me their pastel colors set to try out.

The postal service here in my countr...

Drawing session // Poscas + alcohol markers video

Hi guys ❤️ 

I recorded the process of this sketchbook page some weeks ago and I finally finished editing it last night, so here's a video for u ! Sorry for the ugly lighting, it's winter here in my country and days are so freaking short, I always end up drawing/filming at night.

I used Copic markers, Copic multiliners for inking, a Tombow Fudenosuke pen for line weight, Posca pens and Kuretake white ink on my Artgecko Freestyle sketchbook :)

⋅✧✶ Sketchbook tour ✶✧⋅

Hi guys! Hope you're doing well and staying safe :)

Today I have a few more sketchbook pages to share with you, I've been sketching a lot lately and trying to keep it very very simple! With all the moving situation there's stuff to take care of pretty much every day so it's been hard to sit down and draw for long periods of time, but can't complain. 

I've been thinking a lot about my sweet Lucky these days, she was my childhood dog and she passed away in 2017 at the age of 16...

Not named // Redraw from 2014 🌼

Hello again my dear patrons! ☄️

Here's a lil preview of a new illustration I finished today :)

I wanted to do a redraw of an old piece and I chose this drawing that I made back in 2014

It was inspired in a phrase I heard a looong time ago "Lo que no se nombra nunca cicatriza" which translates to something like "what's not named can't be healed" which I always th...

Jellyfishes // Digital step by step 🦑

Hey guys! How're you doing? ✨🌞🌻

Happy June! Welcome new patrons 🥰 I hope you like it here!!

Here's the step by step breakdown of one of my latest illustrations! I wanted to post this sooner but time flew by, I'm sorry. When I do these kind of  painterly and lineless illustrations it's usually 20% layer effects and 80% painting/rendering the hell out of it. I made little annotations at the bottom of some images describing some of these steps.

Favorite Procreate brushes *updated*

Hey guys! Happy Saturday 🌻

I wanted to make a quick update on the brushes I've been using for Procreate. I have these long periods of time where I don't use my ipad for months and when I get back at it it's like starting from scratch and it's frustrating sometimes. 

So I made this list for you but it's also a lil reminder for myself haha

You can find the Mega Inker here<...
