This piece will be at the @whitdelarts members exhibition tonight. It’s inspired by chasing Jackrabbits or “liebres ” in chihuahua. That memory has been stuck in my head for some time so I had to paint it. • #illustration #art #painting #drawing #ink #liebre #dibujo #pintura #illustracion #tinta #mixedmedia (at Detroit, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsyplx4BiIk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kqmme4woie2q

WIP. Tilda Swinton is so good in Suspiria. Also, the soundtrack by @thomyorke is haunting and beautiful.

Gouache study of a shot in Roma, a film by @alfonsocuaron , Cuarón’s storytelling left me incredibly inspired. @lwlies had a great interview with Cuarón in their last issue. • #illustration #roma #alfonsocuaron #painting #gouache #study #sketchbook #film (at Detroit, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrlqVOeBLBZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=apouzk6soqpi
