Pattern

Some insects pattern.

A detail.

I'm doing a lot of patterns lately for a project. This is one that I'm sharing, because the Illustration Friday theme compels me. I just can't avoid it...

Hope you like it.

Reencarnacion

Usually, I don't post any kind of Graphic Design work samples here. The work I do at my work is more or less confidential, and I do very little freelancing. Because, I'm going to be honest with you... usually I hate working directly with clients.

However, when a friend asked me for help with the image of her new store, I couldn't say no.

It's been fun, she is very cool and a good artist, and she love what I did for her.

Reencarnacion (reincarnate) is a little store that rescue old furniture, from the 50's-60's, and refurbishes and give new life to it, all with Maricel's style.

So I designed a logo that reflects that, I think is very self explanatory...

New life on old wood, and playing with the duplicity of two lives on the letters.

An important part of the design elements is a pattern, to be used in bags, gift paper and all that.

...but the first we did, is a wall paper, very cool.

Well, maybe I'll update this with more elements, but don't hold your breath, and don't wait sitting, go outside and play with the dog...

Cheers.

For the new version of this blog...

Here is repeated:

Now I should start putting all together...

yeah, any moment now...

one eye white owl

First sketches, I already had a good idea of what I wanted.

I like to draw in blue pencils, it allows me to have more layers on the drawing.

Finished sketch.

Ink with a old pen.

You'll see this guy in the near future in his rightful place.

For now, I hope you like it.

not MIA, and what I was doing all this time...

My poor Crónicas blog it's been left aside all this time. That saddens me, really, but I wasn't idle.

My wife Sol and I have been busy planning and starting a little side business, based in origami, flowers and all related stuff of use for baby showers, bride showers, birthdays, etc.

We are just starting, and while Soligami's blog it's been online for a while, we are just going to make it really public, this weekend if all goes right. It's time.

Soligami is a local business, that means in Lima, Peru, so all that blog is in spanish. Is not planned for international business, but maybe if you really want something from it, we could work something out.

Take a look, I'll love to have some feedback from you guys.
