We’re celebrating Book Week in several locations across the Cayo district in Belize. I designed this poster for the occasion!
Illustrations for "Living Together"
Here are some samples of the illustrations I’ve been doing for the updated versions of the “Living Together” textbooks for primary schools in Belize.
New Children’s Book: “Charlie’s Adventure”
A new year and a new book illustrated! This was a short one about a boy’s adventure through his dreams, written as a song.
New Children's Book: "How Tommy the Anxious Turtle Learned to be Brave"
Here’s the second in a series teaching children about how to manage their feelings, with this one about a turtle overcoming his anxiety.
New Children's Book: "How Henry the Angry Dragon Learned to be Calm"
I recently illustrated this book as part of a series teaching children about how to manage their feelings, which was the perfect excuse to draw a little dragon going on a suburban rampage!
New Children's Book: "Our Stick Tree"
I’ve just finished illustrating another book in the same series as My Frog is Faster, in which children decorate sticks to make their own Christmas tree. Knocked this one out just in time for Christmas!
New Children's Book: "My Frog is Faster"
I’ve illustrated a new children’s book, My Frog is Faster, about schoolchildren collecting frogs to have them race! Was a lot of fun drawing many goofy frogs. Here are some sample pages from the book.
New Children's Book: "I Can’t Hear You"
I’ve been commissioned to illustrate a new children’s book. As it’s tailor made for deaf children, all the text is accompanied by hand signs for the letters.
Tamoanchan
More concept art for my book, The Tree of Life! The land of Tamoanchan, with the city of Tulan at the fore, and the sacred tree known as the Yaxche in the distance.
New Bookmark Design
Recently finished writing my fourth book and figured a new book deserves a bookmark. So here are the heroes of The Tree of Life!
Yum Kimil's war generals
I did some designs for two gods who make their debut in The Tree of Life: Ahulane, god of archery, and Chac Chel, goddess of water!
The Realm of Rain
Teelo and Nikte Ha doing some cloud-spotting outside Chaac’s palace in the Realm of Rain.
It feels so good to be bad
I present to you the dastardly villains of The Jade Necklace!
The Death god Yum Kimil upon his throne, with his right-hand man Camazotz, the Bat god, and his left-hand lady, the Dead Queen.
Chapter illustrations for “The Tree of Life”
Illustrations for my next book are well underway! Hoping to have it finished early next year.
School Reader
I collaborated with Cubola Productions to make a few illustrations for a reader to be used in schools in Belize. It features various Belizean artists illustrating its collection of short stories. Here are my contributions!
Rex gamer
Designed this little mascot for Sky Tyrannosaur using Magicavoxel, a 3-D modeller using voxels.
The Art of Seafoam Empress
The game project I’ve been designing art for is entering its final stages of development, so I figured I’d show some of the concept art I made for it.
Seafoam Empress is a hybrid on-land/underwater platformer where you play as Athena, a brave young mermaid who embarks on an adventure of exploration to rescue her kidnapped brother from the hands of Fortis, an evil scientist/deep-sea diver.
It’s been quite a journey working on this, and I look forward to being able to play the finished product!
Some more concept art for my next book!
The Tree of Life, in 8-bit!
I present to you the heroes of The Tree of Life in pixelated splendour (for no other reason than that I really enjoy making pixel art). My favourite is obviously Lord Yaaxu doing what he does best.
Nikte Ha with her father's lightning-axe
This character has undergone a few changes, not only to her name and design, but also her backstory. I wanted a female protagonist who’s very different from Itzel, and I think I’m managing that. Despite her heavenly upbringing (or in large part because of it), Nikte Ha is hotheaded, a little conceited, and just generally rough around the edges, but if she shares anything with Itzel it would be her tenacity.
