Digital Illustrations 01

New York's Finest

This piece was created for @newyorknico’s #bestnyshirt contest on instagram. The point of the contest was to create a tee design that demonstrated the pride of New York in some way. Although this piece wasn’t chosen as a finalist, I was able to produce a few through Custom Ink for people to purchase and all of the proceeds went to charity.

Sketchbook Project

This is a personal project of mine. I took the most recent sketchbook I filled, scanned all of the art and created this visual mock-up of it for everyone to see. I included personal items and objects that were inside of the sketchbook as well that I collected over the few months I drew in it. Displayed are daily sketches of people I drew on the train, people I care about, and other random sketches.

Air Max Illustrations

I started this series for Air Max day in the month of March. I sketched some early Air Max sneakers from the late ’80s and early ’90s, then mocked them up on Photoshop to create the vintage ad look.

Air Max Day 2020

I created this piece for this years Air Max Day for a challenge that the brand Extra Butter put on instagram.

Charlie Brown Redesign

The idea was to redesign the popular cartoon character Charlie Brown, but in the style of an artist that I admire. I decided to emulate the style of James Jean. Sketched on paper, scanned and painted on Photoshop.

Feed 'Em Gunpowder

This piece was inspired by a verse by one of my favorite artist, Biggie Smalls.

“Got the rottweilers by the door, and I feed 'em gunpowder, so they can devour, the criminals trying to drop my decimals”.

I illustrated and mocked up the piece on Photoshop.

Autonomia Completa

Complete Autonomy. I got this idea and sketched it out in pen during a trip to Italy and illustrated it on photoshop.

Oscar 1992

A friend of mine named Oscar had me do this illustration of him dressed in retro 90’s club clothing. Ski pants, retro The North Face apron, ski jacket, bubble vest, crazy goggles, and a pair of Adidas Nite Joggers. He dressed like this for a collab project he worked on with Adidas to promote the Nite Joggers. It was inspired by his party and dance history.

Arm The Kids

Arm the kids digital illustration. Sketch scanned, and finished on Photoshop. This was inspired by retro club posters.

We're All Monsters

Illustration sketched on paper, cleaned and inked digitally on Photoshop. This piece was created during Inktober and used for tees.

Casanova Don't Run Single

This project was inspired by a popular song here in New York by artist Casanova and the logo of the popular coffee chain Dunkin’ Donuts.

To create this I illustrated the logo on adobe illustrator and created the custom album mockups as well as the Spotify mockup on photoshop.

Four Shadow Pez

This is an illustration I created inspired by vintage advertising from the ’40s and ’50s for candy. Sketched on paper, scanned and painted on Photoshop.
