Do you ever start researching aquatic snails native to Mexico because you couldn’t find an easily accessible list of marine snails so you could make a snail form for a niche character in a niche mythology? Yeah

ES|| He hecho una nueva versión del caracolito enamorado. Hace muchísimo tiempo que tenia el esbozo y el apunte de color hecho en procreate y también realice una versión de la misma ilustración en formato vertical para la exposición de postales de @gallerynucleus . Además tengo pendiente una nueva versión donde quiero experimentar con mucho más gouache y menos acuarela! 🐌 En las imágenes podéis ver el resultado final, el primer paso con solo una capa de acuarela y gouache para el azul del fondo, y el esbozo. Por cierto recordad que si queréis tener o regalar una de las postales de la exposición aun las tenéis disponibles en la tienda online de la galería! EN|| I’ve made a new version of the little snail in love. It's been a long time since I had the sketch and the color tests made in procreate and I also made a version of the same illustration in a vertical format for the power in numbers exhibition at @gallerynucleus . I also have a new version pending where I want to experiment more with gouache and use less watercolor!🐌 In the images you can see the final result, the first step with just a layer of watercolor and gouache for the blue in the background, and the sketch. By the way, remember that if you want to have or gift one of the postcards from the exhibition, you still have them available in the gallery's online store!
EN|| I’m so excited to share another one of the pieces that will be in @gallerynucleus Power In Numbers 7 collective exhibition alongside a ton of amazing artists! This time is a little snail loving her life surrounded by bees and pomegranades! In this close up you can see next to the illustration the color tests I did while I was painting. 🐌♥️ All the postcards are 5”x7” and made using gouache, watercolor, neocolors, polychromos and watercolor pencils. The show will debut in person only and is cash and carry, meaning once a piece is purchased the buyer takes it home with them rather than be on display the duration of the entire show. The earlier people come, the more they can see! Opening reception is September 3rd 5:00PM - 8:00PM in Alhambra, CA. You can find more information about the event in the gallery’s web. ES|| ¡Estoy súper emocionada de compartir otra de las piezas que estarán en la exposición colectiva “Power In Numbers 7” en @gallerynucleus junto a un montón de artistas más! ¡Esta vez se trata de un pequeño caracol que ama su vida rodeado de abejas y granadas! En este primer plano podéis ver junto a la ilustración las pruebas de color que hice mientras pintaba. 🐌♥️ Todas las postales hacen 5”x7” (12.7 x 17.78 cm) y están realizadas con gouache, acuarela, neocolores, polychromos y lápices acuarelables. El espectáculo debutará solo en persona y es “cash and carry”, lo que significa que una vez que alguien compra una pieza, el comprador se la lleva a casa en lugar de estar en la exhibición toda su duración. ¡Cuanto antes vayáis, más piezas podréis ver! La recepción de apertura es el 3 de septiembre de 5:00 pm a 8:00 pm en Alhambra, CA. Puedes encontrar más información sobre el evento en la web de la galería.
ES|| La mayoría de ilustraciones que os enseño por aquí forman parte de proyectos personales que hago en medio de encargos y proyectos remunerados. Muchas veces tengo que dejar a medias estos proyectos personales porque no se vive del aire. A principios de año os empecé a enseñar mi experimentación con técnicas tradicionales, pues una cuantas ilustraciones se me quedaron en el tintero, como este caracol enamorado de una granada! No suelo hacerlo pero aquí os enseño un trozo del proceso de creación, en las imágenes podéis ver el boceto y la prueba de color en @procreate. Espero poder acabarla pronto en mis ratos libres y espero que no quede peor que en el apunte de color porque me tiene enamorada! A vosotros que os parecen los colores? 🐌 EN|| Most of the illustrations I show you here are part of personal projects I do in the middle of commissions and paid projects. Many times I have to leave these personal projects halfway because money. At the beginning of the year I began to experiment with traditional techniques, but a few illustrations were left in the inkwell, like this snail in love with a pomegranate! I don't usually do it but here I show you a piece of the creation process. In the images you can see the sketch and the color test in @procreate. I hope I can finish it soon in my spare time and I hope to not make it worse than in this color test because it has me in love! What do you think of the colors? 🐌
