The Owl (Fussyket partner)

The fussyket would be so lonely without her owl. So I created this coffee owl to accompany her. :) I like the way this turned out, especially the coffee cup element. I can so relate to Mr. Owl's caffeine boost! since we have the same big eyes and because i stayed up from 6pm to 6am the previous day to finish a freelance storyboard illustration (even though i only did the coloring stuff).



Made using watercolor on paper. This was done on intervals, created the base colors and added the details last week, i was just too busy to post this before. :( Added a somewhat pointilism effect for the detail, for the leaves I used 2-3 different shades of green.

Celebrate Art Exhibit

Awesome! One of my artwork was exhibited at the Pocket Universe Art Collective in saGuijo Makati Yay! This was a contest with the most number of likes in facebook. Thanks to all my family, friends, and relatives who liked it! Truly there is strength in numbers! :)



The gallery pocket universe is on the second floor of Saguijo Bar + Cafe adjacent to the Snow Tattoo Shop (Tattoo designs are by Sarah Gaugler!). Anyway back to the gallery, it is a small cozy room, what made it really cool was the black painted walls that made the artworks stnd out. :)

The entry I submitted was the first watercolor painting i did this year! you can check out the detals of my artwork here.
 



I want to give a BIG hug and thank you to all the people who came. It was very heartwarming to see people appreciate art. (especially if you made it!) :)

Meow | pussycat illustration

This was one of the many sketches I made for a project. Too bad this cat was not chosen in the final stages of the poster I was making. So I made a promise to myself that this cat sketch will see the light of day! hehe So this Saturday morning   I decided to paint my cat. The style was inspired by Maurice Sendak's classic children's story "Where the wild things are". And behold my masterpiece!  :) Around 15 mins to sketch and ink and about an hour to color. happy rainy weekend everyone.
