A colored pencil sketch filled in with Copic marker. I ended up scanning the sketch and turning it into a sticker.

Quirky Botanicals and Friends Colouring Book. My first colouring book, all hand-drawn illustrations that started off as doodles -- as a way of destressing and relaxing, taking breaks from 'real life' and work. My form of joyful creative therapy! It's available at Amazon worldwide and Barnes and Noble online.

Taciturn. I don't know any other creature most temperamentally disinclined to talk than fish. I have a few at home and they are a very quiet company.

I wanted to draw a house that had been destroyed.

This is a section of a very large drawing. The entire drawing was a massive doodle that could be used in a children's book one day.

A second go at my drawing 'Animal Parade'. I wanted to try a different approach, a bit darker.

Westworld. Lockdown series no.3! Mixed media.

One of my favourite series. I'm trying to strike the right balance between the abstract and the realism, and I think I try to do that through my use of colours. It's the most rewarding feeling when you use unexpected colours and they come together somehow! Acrylics, watercolour pens and posca markers.

Mixed media drawing of a genius loci - the protective spirit of a place. Part of an upcoming series for prints, cards, and stuff!

Slowely saying goodbye summer, see you next year

For the past years I have been mainly painting in acrylic. But since my last show I have taken this time to return to my love of drawing and am mostly experimenting. I am using fountain pen for the first time and really enjoying it.

A friend suggested this. I’m really glad he did.

Happy to sharing with us my final plate of Dwarf Jay (Cyanolyca nanus), there are a few illustration for this taxa that is endemic to Mexico. Dwarf jay show patterns of occupancy consistent with habitat specialists. Like raccons, Dwarf Jay have a black mask and is predominantly blue. Technic: hybrid media (graphite, colored pencils and SketchBook Pro).
