Zoorealism.
This was a call to Miami artists to create an artwork representing Miami culture for Miami Institute of Photography. This installation was a mix of illustrative animal icons from Florida's natural habitat and a tangible set, recreating the most popular table game, dominoes. The symbolism of the illustration is that the person sitting in front of the piece is immersed in the experience of what makes Miami a multicultural place.

Cuando baila.
By El Rapha
Proposal Illustration for a single cover on Spotify, Cuando Baila by Artist El Rapha.
The song tells a story of a woman who enchants a man with her captivating dance. The inspiration behind my proposal takes place during the pandemia where the musician plays the latin congas on his balcony across hers from day to night. There is nothing more amusing than to see her dancing as he serenades her with his performance.

Father's day.
A social media post for Zumba that celebrates the role of a supportive father who helps and plays with his children. The dad bod is not built in the gym but instead in daily interactions with one’s family. A physique that isn’t solely based in muscle, but in heart and mind as well.

Mezcalandia.
A personal project that came to fruition after an amazing trip to Mexico City and my immersion into the vast new world of mezcal. This inspiration led me to execute a magical and surrealistic land where the drunken worm is King to all, surrounded by my own interpretation of Alebrijes and Mexican aesthetics.

Saved by the yarn.
A personal project that began after some friends had made a social media post about a black cat they were looking to re-home. I wasn't looking for a cat but I had a friend that was interested in adopting who just couldn't take him immediately. We then decided I would host the feline until she was ready to take him but after two weeks of living with the cat, we created an unbreakable bond that made it impossible for me to surrender him. I instead created this illustration and printed it onto a canvas in hopes that it would suffice for her. It wasn't enough to salvage our friendship which couldn’t outweigh the love that this cat and I quickly developed for one another. I named him Poe and he still remains in my care.
