🇩🇴🤓🗽Afro-Latino artist/freelancer. Wears Hawaiian shirts, lifts weights, and loves Yakuza (Like A Dragon) + Nintendo. Opinions= mine.
Two months after buying it at NYCC, I'm finally reading This Place Kills Me which is on many best 2025 comics and graphic lists. I haven't even put together my list yet! 😅 But I love the limited color palette and use of digetic music. I'm rooting for Abby!🤞 #booksky #comicssky

I've been working on a holiday card all day for a friend who I'll mail it to. It's been fun! I took creative liberties on the back of the card to paint by feeling. #watercolorart #holidaycard #illustration #caturday

Between hitting the gym and anxiety over some pain on my right clavicle that I may have worsened at said gym, I'm having a hard time sleeping tonight. So many things on my mind even though I know things are going to work out. Anyway here's some pics from last night's event.

On the phone with a customer service agent: "I have here as your email your first and last name, Juh hone to contact you." As someone who's done outreach work, I get it but it was torturous to hear. 🙉

I turned on my PS5 for the first time in a few months and I was floored by how gorgeous this tarot art style portrait of all the big Resident Evil characters are! 🤌Hats off to the artist who did this! It has cool details that nod each character. I would buy a tarot card set.

Winning first place in bar trivia tonight after coming in 7th place last Thursday is redemption. But it also helped that we had 5 people and the round were questions we had in the past...which we did not get right. 😅

@chiitan.love pencil sketch. I need to tighten up the pencils but it's coming along nicely before painting it.☺️

Saw this leaf caught on a fence with horrible Thanksgiving traffic in the background going to the GW earlier today.

To Philly we go for PAX Unplugged. A bit of a 5 o'clock shadow going but it'll be fun! This will be year 7/21 PAX shows. Make that choo choo sound. 🚂

Pencil sketch of Mexican director Guillermo Del Toro and Cuban American actor Oscar Isaac. Based on a GQ YouTube thumbnail of the two in conversation with each other to promote Frankenstein. It'll be fun to ink + color it.

It's been a while since I posted art. Here's the one and only Jon Stewart from @thedailyshow.com.

That was easy! I had to wait a full year to vote on Halloween, one of my favorite holidays to get this sticker. And to be honest, I wouldn't have it any other way! 😁 Off to the rest of my day which includes performing in my 9th Village Halloween Parade. 🎃 Happy Halloween! Please vote.

Another year, another New York Comic Con going 14 years strong. It's still wild that I've been doing as long as my oldest niece has been alive. I usually buy exclusives and love hitting up Artist Alley and catch up with friends.

I saw the Brazilian Muralist, Kobra the other day working on a mural outside the Eden Gallery on 52nd and 5th. What an absolute legend! His documentary was damn good. He famously said he would never do a portrait of himself.

I don't really care about the English VA (the bits that I've heard are fine). But all I wanted was Okinawa in HD. Please let the combat be good and hard (I doubt that) since it's in the Dragon Engine. That's all this diehard Yakuza fan wants. 🤞Mine getting a glow up DLC is great!
Yakuza Kiwami 3 (with JPN/English voices) is officially announced

Observations in the subway: Far too many dudes have moustaches. They're totally in thanks to the likes of Timothy Chalamet and Donald Glover. I've thought about trying one out on my face for a few days. But not Ned Flanders or Ron Swanson thick. 🤔 I need to draw these dudes.

The PlayStation turned 30. It's wild that this thing sitting in my closet is that old! I remember getting the PSX as a joint Christmas gift from my mom and uncle from my dad's side for my brothers. I don't know if those memory cards even work anymore! 😅

I drew myself along with some con friends the other day while feeling nostalgic for Otakon this weekend in a blank two page spread in my most recent journal. I was inspired by Emil Ferris's work in My Favorite Things Is Monsters.
