Here’s one of the jitney buses in my local community. #art #watercolor #sggchjrdvbgdtbgggdvhjdssc sigh. Feels like I get farther and farther from doing something new

I took part in #tekenuurtje2023 with this photo for Digismith by Jaime Cabrera Huidobro. I forgot it was supposed to be an hour, took me way longer. Went for an ukiyo-e and Mœbius look.

It’s campaign season again and this is what I see on a daily basis in my city. Look everything else I’m reposting, this is old. We no longer have party voting columns like this. #art #vote #campaign #watercolor While I’m at, vote Zohran Mamdani. Don’t rank Cuomo #nycmayor #nycelection

One of favorites. Most of my paintings are realistic but sometimes I’ll do one where I insert Colombian mythological or folkloric figures into my US hood. This is El Mohan, I made him a little more Jason Mamoa than how he’s traditionally depicted. #art #watercolor #jerseycity #nj #Colombia #elmohan

In following HudPost, I saw a lot of overturned cars so I decided to paint one of my own #carflipchallenge I was embarrassed cause I based one officer on a real one I know, I just changed him for the worse. Turns out I didn’t go far enough in the changes and he found out 😐 #art #watercolor

Drew myself a while ago. Wanted to capture some of the stress I get when I art. I don’t know how people have fun doing this. Maybe you need to get over that line, where you don’t make mistakes and things come out like u envisioned them,but that requires lots of practice which I don’t do anymore #art

Keep forgetting to post here.This is from one of my travels. Haven’t really traveled (not fam visits) since covid. I would like to start again but I’m rusty.

Here’s another oldie. I have mixed feelings on this one. Like the subject matter and technique but something feels off. Maybe bad composition or not enough contrast. Not sure.

Forgot to post this. I gotta admit I’ve been a little more active on the 📕 app than on here. And why am I self censoring? 🤷♂️ #art #watercolor #lapola #westnewyork #war

This is one of my favorites. I wanted to display the old Union City with the Cuban botanica in the back, and a Mexican or Central American man in front.

Here's one I did based on something I saw. I thought of skipping this one, as I am skipping posting old work that I don't like. I still like the colors and spirt enough, there's just some sizing, spacing, or perspective things that look off to me.

Keep forgetting to be as active here, especially since I've been spending too much time on Xiaonhongshu. Here's another oldie. This was based on real life, except he was on the other side of this overpass, facing away from the city, and it was day time. 😐

I took a photo of these iconic steps in West New York, NJ and it reminded me of a Hasui Kawase shin-hanga print. So I tried to emulate the style, a bit. Long versions in my YouTube #art #watercolor #watercolour #illustration #hudsoncounty #urbanart #hudsoncountynj #westnewyork #westnewyorknj

Only 4 of my Hudson Co. watercolor series this year. Sure I could've added some commissions, fanart, and storyboards, but this is the main reason for this page.
