Illustrations

Special focus is shared to engage with all audiences, as to rekindle a sense of wonder, inviting through illustrations that transport viewers to a world of magic and awe. Inspired by the beauty of nature, fables, and everyday life, to spark imagination and hope through each unique story. And as  I illustrate, I enjoy the process of imagining the characters, the color palette, and details of which also permit to be immersed in an enlightened state, bringing characters to life through storytelling, dreams, and close encounters with the world. It is a blessing to be influenced by inspirational fables, wildlife, and people, encouraging familiarity,  guidance, and emotional connection.
In the process of crafting the visual narratives so a broad range of materials, including gouache, inks, markers, and pens, support to express personal connections and experiences on paper, cardboard, and other surfaces as I feel are attuned to such endeavor. It is with much gratitud that illustrations have graced the covers of journals and literary reviews, including the National Library of Honduras' Juan Ramón Molina collection. 

I'm also grateful that artworks participate individually and collectively in projects that comprise illustrating art in the form of illustrations, posters and paintings that grace books.  Such examples, published by the National Association of Writers in Honduras, including Antología Voces de la ANDEH, La Biblioteca de las GN, and various children's stories and fable books, such as El Libro Que Escribieron las Hadas, Historias de Natalia, Cuentos de Africa, Erase una Vez..., and many others.

 

It is also a profound honor to be included international community projects that serve a worthy cause and of which raise consciousness towards humanity. Honored to participate in the Antología de Poesía Internacional de Mujeres Originarías, a remarkable project that celebrates the significance and beauty of women worldwide.Featured artwork, comprised paintings and illustrations, rendering tribute to the strength and resilience of women from diverse backgrounds.

 

 

 

Erase una vez... La Fábula (Fable) is a captivating narrative that weaves a collection of stories, each conveying valuable messages through the endearing representation of wildlife characters. This charming tale transports readers to a world where animals come alive, sharing wisdom and lessons that resonate with audiences of all ages. And, of which I’m genuinely happy to participate with art that celebrates the value and appreciation of fables.
