CISCO'S SKETCH PAGE

NYC•UWH

2011-11-29T11:47:00.000-08:00

I haven't blog in ages. Here's a logo I just finished for a co-worker's Under Water Hockey team. That's right...Under Water Hockey. You can look it up and check it out....it's getting very popular in some states. They're trying to register here in NYC. Hope everyone likes it.

I'll Transform your World!

2010-05-03T06:04:00.000-07:00

A couple of months ago, we were pitching for Transfomers 3 Movie at my job and they wanted to do a girls apparel line. My boss asked me to draw a cute Transformer robot for a girls top....so I sketched something out, scanned it, outlined it, colored it, and designed the graphic for the top. It all took about 2 1/2 hours.

Save the Date!

2010-04-30T06:24:00.000-07:00

I asked my wife's cousin, who's getting marry in September, if I can design her wedding invitation card. She said yes, and so here I started with her Save the Date Magnet Card. I'll be starting her wedding invitation card next month.

A Valentine's gift for my cousin's girlfriend

2010-02-03T13:30:00.000-08:00

One of my thousand of cousins, ask me to do a pencil drawing of him and his girlfriend for Valentine's Day. I tried to do it as fast as I can, but it took me a while. I feel rusty...need to get back on the saddle.

My Bats Kids

2009-11-13T11:12:00.000-08:00

This was done for the drawing jam. The theme of the project was anything related Halloween. So, I decided to draw the kids as Batman, Batgirl and Robin.

Disney/Marvel Mash Ups...Daredevil Jack & Elektra Sally

2009-10-05T05:49:00.000-07:00

We had another drawing jam at work and the theme was the Disney/Marvel Mash Ups. Disney had bought the rights to A Nightmare Before Christmas, so I decided to do a piece with Jack & Sally as Daredevil & Elektra.

Disney/Marvel Mash Ups...The Black Quack

2009-09-10T19:27:00.000-07:00

WOW!! It has been a while!! Sorry, for not posting anything for a long time. Anyway, most of you know that Disney bought Marvel...can't wait to watch the X-Men or the Fantastic Four CGI Movie by Pixar (just wishing). A couple of my friends and co-workers are drawing Disney/Marvel Character Mash-Ups and I feel inspired by every ones takes on their favorite characters. I figure I needed to do something cool and sexy....like what if Daisy Duck could be the Black Cat from Spider-Man...but she can't be called the Black Cat. I thought of the Black Duck but its too obvious, so I came up with the Black Quack.

More stuff from the Drawing Jam

2008-11-01T19:23:00.000-07:00

The first two drawings were from the first start of the Drawing Jam back a couple of years ago. The project theme for the Mighty Mouse was to draw your favorite cartoon or comic book character into a more futuristic look. The second piece was to draw an Old Dark Knight. And on the Justice League of America piece, I drew every artist that was involved and contributed in the Drawing Jam as a superhero. The project theme for the JLA was to draw a portrait of a co-worker...well, I drew more than one...lol.

Mighty Mouse

Batman

JLA

Some stuff from the Drawing Jam

2008-10-04T20:06:00.000-07:00

Sorry that I haven't posted anything in a while. At work, we had a weekly drawing jam. A group of co-workers were given a different project every week and each person would use any type media to interpret the project theme. At the end of the week we would show and pass our finish art around to our friends and co-workers. It was fun while it lasted, a lot great art came out from this little group of talented people. Here are some stuff that I've done and I'll be displaying some more when I can.

What's your worst phobia?

R.O.T.L.A.

Ralphie & Millie

2008-04-28T05:59:00.000-07:00

One of my thousand cousins asked me to draw a caricature card of his niece, Millie and her fiancé, Ralphie, for their 'Go Away' surprise party. He wanted me to draw them flying away in a rocket or an airplane. I heard everyone love the card, and his niece started crying when she saw it.

Lola & Michuu

2008-03-19T11:33:00.000-07:00

I did this caricature sketch of Lola and her pet cat, Michuu, (I think that's how you spell it) for Monica's birthday coming up this Friday. Happy Birthday, Monica!

Sorry, I haven't posted anything in a while. I have being very busy at work. Hope everyone enjoys it. Have a great Easter.

Final Fantasy

2008-01-10T06:58:00.000-08:00

I am a big fan of the Final Fantasy video games. I used to play for hours until 4-5 o'clock in morning back in the days. Now, I can't even stay up pass 10pm. This is a piece that I never got to finish and hopefully one day I will. I had some of my college friends strike a pose for character references, and of course yours truly is in the painting, too.

Baby Tigger

2007-10-04T10:45:00.001-07:00

I just found this around my desk. It was drawn a while back when I was working on the infant dept. They wanted a Baby Tigger pose driving a toy car.....but of course Disney didn't approve it because Baby Tigger its not suppose to drive. Then later on they came up with a Baby Pooh & Baby Tigger styleguide driving toy cars.

Teen Titans Go!

2007-09-17T11:15:00.000-07:00

I forgot to add this one to the "Sketches of my kids" post. Remi was a big Teen Titans fan....and actually he still is. He was just watching T.T. this past weekend in his room while playing with his T.T. figures. I kinda miss watching the show with him on Saturday nights.

Remi as Robin and Ruby as Raven

Sketch of my Bat-Kids

2007-09-17T10:06:00.000-07:00

I had nothing to do at work this morning, so I sketch out my kids as the Bat-Kids on my little sketch book I carry around. I'm going to be using this sketch for a more finalize detail (render) drawing around Halloween. Hope you all like it.

Caricatures on the Subway

2007-09-12T05:54:00.000-07:00

Sketches of a Co-Worker

2007-09-07T12:50:00.000-07:00

I have to seat in front of this face everyday....so I had to draw him. But I don't blame him, he has to seat in front of me everyday...lol The first one was a quick sketch done in pen ink brush and the second one, I was trying more of a caricature sketch. Jesse in ink pen brush
Jesse in blue pencil

My Kids Birthday Invitation Cards

2007-09-04T18:18:00.001-07:00

Wassup!! I'm going to give this a try because my co-worker/P.I.T.A. friend, Jesse, has being bugging me to put my shit up. I feel that I don't have much to show and when you have 3 (wonderful) kids you feel like you can't do anything...not even 5 minutes in a day...lol.

Here are some of my kids birthday invitations cards I made a while back. I'll post more stuff when I get a chance.

This was Ruby's first card

This was for Logan's first card

This one was Ruby's second card

And this was Remi's fourth card
