Just starting a new personal project, as a tv series yonkie…
Stephen King’s short tale Illustrations
Posted by Nuria | Editorial, Illustration, Sketchbook, Uncategorized | No CommentsUpcoming new project! This time an illustrations set about a Stephen King’s tale, “The Man Who Would not Shake Hands”.
Last friday, Zander magazine team launched the last issue, with a cover illustration by Alfonso Zapico, author of “Dublines”. The alternative cover author is “El Irra”, a comic illustrator from Euskadi.
The party included a drawing battle in which I took part, but as always, I had a superhero theme for the drawing (last time it was Iron Man, now Thor…) and I was out in the first round :/ Maybe next time!

Salem, my albino cat is my muse for the all day inspiration. Here is the proof!! One of my all time favourite posters, a 19th century French one by Théophile Steinlen has been reconverted in a Salem homage!

Yesterday, one of my best friends finally got her nursing degree, so this is my “congrats” illustration for her.
Mer, I’m so proud of you!!!
I’ve been playing these days with an ipad app that helps you to create a handwritten font.
This is my font, a handmade Helvetica, really cool to make your small texts (I think it works really well in 12pt or even less…) look a bit informal without losing the helvetica perfection!

This new member of my family has inspired some illustrations I’ll show soon :)
I cannot wait to finish this project!!
This is a header for an alternative magazine (what we all know as hipster).
Finally, I got the illustrations for the Pop up I had to make for the “Illustration Techniques” subject. I just have to print, cut & paste :)
New work in progress: Packaging Restyling
Posted by Nuria | Branding, Color, Graphic Design, Packaging | No CommentsI am working on a complete restyling proposal for a real brand and its packaging. I wont say the kind of product yet… Just that it is an international company, based in Asturias, with a wide range of food products.
By now, I alredy have the color palette I will use for the three main products.
Fuzzy bunnies, big-eyed girls, meat, magic, and mystery
Pinxit, whose title refers to the Latin term meaning “painted by,” is organized by the themes of Ryden’s major exhibitions—The Meat Show, Bunnies & Bees, The Tree Show, and so on—and includes collected essays by Yoshitomo Nara, Carlo McCormick, and others, and a new essay by culture critic Kristine McKenna. Ryden’s paintings and drawings are reproduced using the finest technique available, and over a dozen of the paintings are foldouts that open to a staggering 150 cm (59 inches) across.

Due to my BB addiction, I decided to start my new sketchbook with some Breaking Bad character drawings, starting from my favourite, Walter White. In my opinion, this tv serie is one of the best ever produced, and this is my tribute to it. Read More
