Divas of POP Illustrations: Nicki Minaj

Nicki Minaj joins Lana Del Rey in my Divas of POP series. I absolutely love Nicki, she has such an amazing, colorful personality and that's what I was trying to capture with this illustrations.
Truth be told, I often find myself having one of her songs in my head - unfortunately it's not a very pretty picture when I try to sing them.
Hope you guys like my illustration - prints are now available for purchase on my Society6 shop!

Anamorphic Illusions: Creative or Costly?

I think everyone enjoys a great optical illusion, but is it art or just a gimmick? Artists like Felice Varini, whose work is featured in this article has been using them in his career for over 30 years.

Anamorphic illusions are effective when viewed from a specific angle, but as an architect I was always taught that taking into considerations various angles is a must. After all, it's not like everyone will be standing in the exact same spot when viewing your work, and when viewed from any other angle, these type of illusions just look like a bunch of incohesive, random shapes.
By no means am I trying to undermine this type of work, it is in fact pretty cool, yet I can't help but find it quite gimmicky. What are your thoughts? Take a look at more photos next:

New Illustration: The Final Mystery

If you've been reading my blog lately, you probably already know how much I love Antony Morato's latest campaign. Well, the other night I felt inspired, so I decided to create a new illustration based on that.
I felt like channeling an old school detective vibe, so that's the look I was trying to convey with this piece. Perhaps it's also the result of playing Alan Wake non stop for the last couple of days! Take that and add a pinch of Sin City along with an Oscar Wilde quote and voila! Hope you guys like it!

Prints, along with other goodies, are now available for sale on my Society6 shop, so make sure to check it out.
