A simple drawing, done partly out of boredom, partly out of nostalgia. Enjoy!

Bane

So what did you think of The Dark Knight Rises?

Chori Rider - Primera Brasa

Chori Rider - Primera Brasa is a 3-page comic, published on GAS3K.3, an uruguayn comics publication with several contributors and which you can check out here. This short comic focuses on the origin of the Chori Rider, a character in which any similarity to other flame-headed bikers is purely coincidental. Chori fights for the right to letting each person eat what they want freely, without pressure or propaganda from the opposing side. It's a light hearted story and a funny character.

The comic was scripted by my friend Magnus Von Tesla, I drew it and my boyfriend Pedro Carvalho did a great work with the grey tones.

I'll color this as soon as I have the time. It'll also be available in english soon.

Enjoy!

H. P. Lovecraft

Well, I'm finally on vacations and I need to produce some art, so I decided to create some warm-up drawings. This is the first one I did - H. P. Lovecraft. He's sort of a polarizing figure for me, because although many of his cultural ideas are very negative and something I don't agree with at all, his legacy is amazing. He's one of the most influential horror writers of all time, and he created one of the most intriguing and layered mythos of horror literature, the Cthulhu Mythos. Some of his stories are among my favorite horror works, so I decided to draw him.

I used some brushes created by Anjin Anhut. Hope you like it!

VIII International Comics' Festival of Beja

I completely forgot to post this earlier, but anyway. I was invited by the organization of the VIII International Comics’ Festival of Beja (a portuguese comics festival) to have a solo exhibition as part of the festival! It was my first solo exhibition, so I was super excited to have my work be a part of such an awesome festival. Here you have some selected photos. Hope you like them!

If you look closely, you can see my name in there!

Here I am, joined by a mural made from one of my illustrations, Mad Scientist.

This section showcased some publications in which I published comics or illustrations.

One of the most famous pages of A Garagem de Kubrick, poking fun at 300.

Some more publications with my work.

Joined by all the good folks who visited my exhibition.

 

Alien

It’s that time you’ve all been waiting for: a new Mike and Carla jam! This time, we decided to pay homage to the Alien movie series. I very recently re-watched the quadrilogy with Pedro (it was an awesome re-watch, and Alien is still my favorite of the four), so doing the Alien-related jam was extra cool.

This is my piece, check out Mike’s over here (hint: it’s awesome!).

Game of Thrones - Joffrey

Here my part of An Art Jam of Ice and Fire with the always brilliant Mike Horowitz. We had to draw a character and their corresponding sigil. My piece was late, but Mike delivered and awesome rendition of Jojen Reed last week, so if you haven’t seen it yet, make sure you go to his tumblr and check it out.

I love Game of Thrones - both the series and the books (I’m currently reading A Dance With Dragons) - and the hard part was deciding which character to draw. I’ve drawn Ned Stark, Jon Snow and Jamie Lannister in the past, so I wanted to try someone new. I ended up picking Joffrey, because he’s just so damn hateable. I think we all love to have that one character we hate, and for me that’s Joffrey. He’s just so cruel and twisted, I can’t stop myself from hating him with every fiber of my being. That being said, I had fun drawing him!

I just had to resist adding in a speech bubble to make him say “I’m a little shit”.

Stay tuned for more future drawing jams between me and Mike!
