Drawings From 2012. - Just found these pen-drawings, and I had an smile in the mind remembering myself drawing late at nights obsessed with analogies and surrealism, with patience for detail and very excited to show everyone my work at a small local exhibition where I sold these guys for around $60. It actually wasn’t that bad ✍️ #younger #drawings #pendrawings #sketches #moleskine #moleskineart #surrealism #moleskinsketches https://www.instagram.com/p/BuwBHw2nNdY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xza0xdm2o59a

Xmas Time Is Here... 🎶 I have to say this year I wasn’t feeling the Christmas spirit too much, but making these letters and being in my hometown with my fam really helped and now I’m ready!! #lettering #typography #customtype #customletters #typographic #graphicletters #slabserif #woodenletters #craftedlettering #typedesign #xmaslettering https://www.instagram.com/p/BrshTO7n-xi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vmrwyq2n1q1v

I made this ambigram from one of my favorite words in Spanish: SOMOS, which means “we are.” SOMOS is a word that says a lot in 5 letters. It displays symmetry and balance in it’s shape as well as in it’s meaning. #lettering #letters #type #customletters #ambigram #customtypography #typography #script #español #graphicdesign #customlettering https://www.instagram.com/p/BrnKcP-Hf05/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kz6uh3y64rx9

From the structure to the #typeface, I designed this #lettersystem that lead me to then #signpaint the letters over steel tiles, to then compose the #logotype on the front of a cultural center in #mexico. Great project within less than a week deadline. #signpainters #signpainting #enamelpaint #enamelsign #handpaintedsigns #typography #typedesign #shadowtype

This was my first approach for the @CutOutFest, A shot that didn't make it, But I think it deserves the chance to be seen in public - Go ahead man, don't be shy... #typography #lettering #logotype #branding #graphicidentity #eyes #graphicdesign

So hard to get them and so easy to lose them - trust and love, and sometimes People. Very fragile. #handlettering #handtype #lettering #scripttype #stenciltype
