TRON UPRISING ART TEAM

2012-02-02T01:06:00.000-08:00

I´m really excited as Tron Uprising is looking really beautiful.
My art team it´s amazing and I want to thank to ALL of them for producing such a peculiar and incredible artwork.

Here they are all of them. Check them out. Provably the best gathered team ever. Hold your breath:

Neil Campbell Ross: Key piece, one of my favorite artist ever and big influence. Thanks Neil. I´m always yours. LIMBOLO

Craig Mullins: Does he need and introduction? Master of technique and a real painter. Every piece is always the best, You all know him. A real privilege. Thanks man. CRAIG MULLINS

Joon Ahn: Master of good taste. This guy it´s too much. He´s been producing most of my favorites pieces and the M*****cker still surprising me more and more. JOON AHN

Vaughan Ling: this young fella it´s only 22 ( or even less? 20 may be ) and he has the greatest technique already!!!. But most importantly: He´s taste is something else. I´ve never seen something like this.Thanks Von, you ROcks. VAUGHAN LING

Robh Ruppel: Amazing technique, amazing artist and a real classic painter .( such a difficult feature now days ). Thanks Robh. ROBH RUPPEL

Joseph Holt: Incredible detail, and also so great taste.He did produce amazing pieces and was kind enough to teach me some photoshop tips that I use every single day. Thanks Joseph. JOSEPH HOLT

Joe Feinsilver: A GREAT young painter. Super HARD worker and talented as hell. His Blog has real treasures. Please check them. Thanks man. JOE FEINSILVER

Darren Bacon: His pieces are soooooo elegant and his technique is amazing. ( this sort of techniques I don´t understand! ). Thanks Darren, l love your pieces. Please check them. Thanks man. DARREN BACON

Annis Naeem: A REAL painter also, amazing designer and a future Director, so watch out for this Master. He recently did an amazing video with his paintings, Check it out. ANNIS NAEEM

With all of them I´ve been learning as hell and I feel my painting skills did grow so much by just revising and checking their artworks.

I would love to show something here, BUT as you must know Mickey Mouse wouldn´t be happy. So we better wait.
However, I can show this poster i did some time ago for Comic Con.

Character Designs by Rob Valley ( Whom you all know ) . I´ve been working with Rob for a long time and for one reason or another our work is been part of very interesting productions, as Beatles Rock Band, XBOX or some Motorola adverts... Here in Tron Uprising not only his characters designs were superb, also his story boards are probably the most beautiful parts in this show. I hope we´ll do a book ( comic book ) only with his panels, pure joy for your eyes ) ROB VALLEY

Meanwhile...We still working on the series. I hope you all like it or I kill you.

About 4 years ago I was working on "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1". The script was not even done yet so I was working from the book creating very quick sketches and inspirational images for the team. I'm very glad as this visions make it through the film on it's final stage. Here are some of those images and ideas.

Sorry for such a rude introduction, but some LOSER just censured my blog to Google. So now Google, kindly enough, would advice you that some content on my page is ... ( not really remember the exact words).

I guess that the main reason is for nudity.
Anyway, sorry if somebody feel offended about my artwork, but I like sexual areas out of my toilet.

This little drawing I post today is a completely different story, but careful, if you look closely, you would notice a nipple under the shirt...GOD! and what a nipple! shit! run run, little fucker, go to the toilet.

Anyway. Does anybody knows how to take this band OFF?

A quick painting to show an idea for a shot.

PITCH

2010-05-18T03:19:00.000-07:00

After my Pinkman.tv I´ve been approached to pitch some commercials.
I did this image as a final style frame for a pitch. I didn´t win it though. Quite a shame, I was happy with the style, It could be a nice piece.
However I have lots of stuff, storyboards more images lots of BGs.... SO I guess I´ll do a piece with the material at some point.

...

Después de los videos de Pinkman.tv me han pedido dar forma a varios proyectos. Esta es una imgen de uno de ellos. No ha salido, desgraciadamente . Pero decía ahí arriba que tengo mucho material, así que imagino que haré una pieza de animación tarde o temprano con todo esto...

I did this silly Making-of, so people could understand more or less my way of work.
I´ve been working as hell in each animation so it´s very upseting when people think that it´s rotoscope of sh-----t . Here is a little explanation-of.
I hope you like it!

Hice este Making-of con el fin de medio explicar como trabajo.
He trabajado como un animal en cada animación y me duele en el alma que la gente piense que es rotoscopia ( de los cojones ).

"A guy walks in the street and a painter kicks a bottle of painting. But he is ready with an...UMBRELLA."
This is advertising now days. There are people thinking out there.

Anyway, the job was a nice 1 year campaign, so it could allow me a much confortable living... It didn´t happen though.

I show you the first rough and the final ( 6th version ) after many many changes.

Pues eso, una ilustrachione para una gente. Al final todo quedó en nada.
La idea era que un tipo accidentalmente golpea un bote de pintura. Pero el ejecutivo de turno lleva un paraguas...

2009-10-07T06:21:00.000-07:00

We are living in a complex time. Internet, rights, politics, copyrights... blah blah blah.

During the last 2 years I´ve been working in various SECRET projects as HARRY POTTER 7 ( SEVEN already?... jesus christ... ), GIjOE, Dorian Grey´s Portrait , Beatles Rock Band ... Cartoon Network future series ( those really made me happy, I must say )... BUT I can´t show any of the stuff around.
So I should wait some time till I show more of my Beatles work.

I think that the best is to be more OPEN and try to go according to our present time.

Gentlemen, internet and digital media is beyond control. So LET IT BE, LET IT BE , LET IT BE, LET IT BE ... Whisper words of wisdom, LET IT BE. ( I´mnotsure´s copyright )

...

Y decía que me dieron un toque por colgar las imágenes de Beatles Rock Band. El juego ya ha salido a la venta, y yo, tonto de mí, haciendo publicidad gratuita...
Alguien entiende algo?
Bueno, el futuro de internet ,el arte y el digital media así corre peligro y por una cosa o por otra acabaremos todos en la carcel.

Un boceto rápido para una historia.

Selected by Antonio Lopez!

2009-08-31T15:30:00.000-07:00

Ole, ole, ole.
Después de una intensísima semana pintando sin parar y escuchando a Antonio López García, vuelvo con buenas noticias y cacaos mentales varios

La semana ha sido increíble. El último día, rodeados de prensa concejales y otras fieras el increíble Antonio Lopez elegía las que a su juicio fueron las 3 mejores. Estas obras pasarán a formar parte del fondo del ayuntamiento de Albacete bla bla bla.
Un trocito de prensa:

Antonio López señaló que hubiese preferido no seleccionar ninguna obra ya que todos los jóvenes artistas han hecho un esfuerzo enorme, «pero parece que había que elegir tres y así lo hemos hecho. seleccionando los que más nos han gustado».
El nivel ha sido muy alto, según ha destacado el artista manchego Antonio López, que además repetiría esta experiencia por todo lo que ha podido aprender y enseñar. «Para mi tiene mucho sentido estas reuniones de pintores de diferentes edades y lugares, todos con la intención de mejorar y aclarar las dudas que podemos tener, en un momento en la pintura de una enorme confusión ».
Las tres obras elegidas han sido muy diferentes. La obra del joven Alberto Mielgo, refleja la propia sala -taller donde se ha desarrollado el curso, «la historia de lo que ha ocurrido» es como lo definía López . Un bodegón de Juan Sorrocha, ha sido otra de las piezas seleccionadas y un desnudo de la artista Laia Arnaú, realizado sobre una modelo que posó para los alumnos durante el desarrollo de la cátedra

He aprendido muchísimo, tanto, que mi trabajo me parece una autentica porquería.( Bueno, ya no tanto ) Necesito tiempo para pensar y digerir.
Desde aquí gracias al señor Antonio, pintor alucinante y persona increíble y ahora mas admirado que nunca.
Y gracias a mis compañeros de los que he aprendido cosas geniales, en especial a Bernardino Sanchez Bayo ( Una pasada de artista y nuevo en mis links ) , Francisco J Ortega López ( nuevo en mis links ), Lara Arnau Rosell, Rodrigo Hurtado Parra, Jose Angel Ramirez Cuenca y Blanca Quintas.( Estoy indagando a ver si tienen cositas en la red )

Y aquí el link de prensa, por si quereis leer todo:
PRENSA/Press

So, After a crazzy, extremely busy and intense week, I'm back with good news. My painting has been selected as the best of 24 for the painter master and great human been Antonio López García!
I'm extrremely happy. I did learn a lot, I bring back many answers, and my painting has been selected. Too much, too much.

If you funcy, you can read a bit of the press, where they mention the thing ( but is in Spanish...)

PRENSA/Press

Take care!

ANTONIO LÓPEZ GARCÍA

2009-08-23T08:24:00.000-07:00

I´ve been selected among 19 other painters to participate in 1 week masterclases with the great painter ANTONIO LÓPEZ GARCÍA.

ANTONIO LÓPEZ GARCÍA is now days one of the most important painters and also one of my very very favourites artist of all times. ( No doubt about it )

To be selected has been one of my best goals till now, so I have to swallow as much information as posible and enjoy such a great company during this very next week!

You can find a very interesting video about him here:

ANTONIO LOPEZ IN BOSTON

Y como bien decía, he sido seleccionado junto con otros 19 artistas para participar en la primera Cátedra Extraordinaria Ciudad de Albacete. Un taller de pintura a cargo del pintor ANTONIO LÓPEZ GARCÍA.

ANTONIO LÓPEZ GARCÍA es uno de mis artistas favoritos desde que tengo uso de pincel.
A fecha de hoy , el artista español vivo más cotizado .
Que queréis que os diga, que un pintor figurativo sea tan internacionalmente considerado, por encima de tanto arte , artista y movimientos de arte tan "SOSPECHOSOS" es algo que me tranquiliza y me motiva.

Solo haber sido seleccionado para el taller ya es para mi la madre del cordero.

Esta semana va a ser un antes y un después. Nos vemos a la vuelta!

Un video muy interesante aquí:

Life Painting Competition Cronicles...in Gran Canaria

2008-11-11T06:00:00.000-08:00

Nowadays in Spain there are many Life Painting Competition. A great way to keep alive this fantastic way of painting and also a nice excuse to spend some hours on Saturday.

I did take part on one in Gran Canaria during our last visit to our friends Fedra and Gareth.

On this particular competitions there are some basic rules:
The painting has to be done between 10:00h till 13:00h and has to be from life.

As I did win La Caja De Canarias award I'll post how it was the day.

Huge thanks to Marvelus,( alias Pachu) , Fedra and Garteh, the great models.

_

En la última visita que hicimos a Fedra y Gareth a Gran Canaria, tuve la grata sorpresa de toparme con un cartel que anunciaba un concurso de pintura rápida. Modalidad que me encanta.
Aquí las crónicas de lo que pasó...y me llevé un premio muy majo!

Las reglas para este concurso eran simples ( aparte de otras...)

Pintar de 10:00 a 13:00 y pintar del natural.

Gracias una y otra vez a Marvelita, Fedra y Gareth, que aguantaron las tres horas que duró la pintura posando y posandolo bien.

Shampoo commercial concept... Herbal Essences...In my defense I have to say that none of the ideas are mine. It's great that for this things they usually don't have too much time to have more of their ideas. Nice guys though. They pay, so I should shut up.
I'm happy with the final result anyway, so I share it here.

Y como decía, la cursilada esta forma parte del trabajo que hice para un anuncio de Champú. Se me pidió una fuente que escupiera champú dentro de un jardín con setos en forma de pelo, cepillo de pelo y pelo de pelo. Publicidad para idiotas. Bueno, no hay que pasarse, que pagan.
y como quedé contento con el resultado final, lo pongo.

FELIX cat's food

2007-12-03T05:03:00.000-08:00

Many of you know those commercials.
Very realistic classic full animation.
Long time ago in my early days in Uk I was doing the animation for some of those commercials. Lovely work to do.
Also I did some art work :Those three panels were a new Art direction that we wanted to give to those commercials, simple and minimalist line work.
Unfortunately ( this word is the most ugly of the words ) the client still as traditional and as classic as the work that they want, so my proposal was rather trendy for them. You know, apparently cat's owner usually live in the 18th century.
I post it before I hate it , as it has....5 years old!
All is done with inks and Xerox, when I didn't have a clue about how to use a computer.

Alguna vez se han visto estos anuncios en Spain.
Hace ya tiempo, en mis primeros años en Londres, trabajé como animador para algunos de estos anuncios.
Además hice algunas cosas aparte de la animación, como estos paneles. Son parte de la dirección artística que proponía para alguna serie de estos anuncios. Un trabajo más más minimalista y lineal.
Pero el cliente resultó ser conservador y tradicional y rechazó la propuesta.
Los hice hace 5 años con tintas y fotocopiadora. Por aquella época no tenía ni pajolera de usar un ordenador ( no tenía siquiera uno propio!)

Class of 3000 Art Direction CARTOON NETWORK

2007-11-19T16:35:00.000-08:00

As you can read in Cartoon network Turner pressROOM:
"Class of 3000 enlists the talent of various guest art directors for each episode’s music video segment. Every song created by Andre “3000” Benjamin for the series will be accompanied by a video, animated by some of today’s most highly respected animation directors, each known for their own unique animation style."
Names as: Alan Bodner , Bill Sienkiewicz ( one of my most admired artist ), Kyle Baker and many other artist around the globe.
I've been asked too to do one of these art directions. Here are some panels that I did for them:
Many thanks and admiration to those who were working on this video ,there, across the Ocean.

Y como digo,
tal y como Turner press rOOm nos cuenta:
Class of 3000 ( cartoon network) contiene en cada episodio un vídeo musical. Cada canción creada por Andre "3000" Benjamin , irá acompañada por un vídeo cuya dirección artística se llevará a cabo por algunos de los MAS GRANDEMENTE RESPETADOS Y ADMIRADOS Y ACLAMADOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DIRECTORES DE ANIMACION DEL MUNDO MUNDIAL !!!!! JESUS CHRIST!!!!! aportando su autentico y único estilo. ( esto es increíble, agarrense ) Entre otros : Alan Bodner , Bill Sienkiewicz ( viva este señor y la madre que...), Kyle Baker y YO ( o yo y los otros ) y otros tantos artistas increíbles."

Con algo así mas o menos podemos dar por aprobada la traducción del Turner Press. Quizá un poco mas cálida mi versión.La manera mediterranea de ver las cosas. SI no les importa, me voy a tirar aquí este pedo, que por una vez no pasa nada.

Aquí os dejo alguno de los paneles que hice para ellos:

Investigando con el Cartoon y sus posibilidades en este trabajito que se me encargó para un pedorrillo anuncio de cereales.
Hoy día la animación , aquella tan bonita y tradicional, tan solo encuentra regularidad en los anuncios de cereales.
Esto se llama crisis.

Investigation in Cartoon and its many possibilities.
Work for a Cereals commercial.
Cereals commercial are now days the only way that animation ( 2d... ) is finding regularity... That means CRISIS.

Hola hola.
Gracias por tan Magnífica respuesta a mi anterior amarga-POST.
Hoy os enseño mi ultimo trabajo para Honda, de la mano de la Agencia VillarRosas ( Barcelona ), buena gente. Gracias especialmente Enric y Patricia.
Ha sido la gran locura: tan solo 4 días para terminarlo( de un Jueves a un Lunes). Pero todo fue estupendamente a pesar de la pérdida de color de tres o cuatro pelos, de esos que me cubren la cabeza.
Técnica: mucho dibujar y todo pintar.
Gracias.

Some bullshit send this project to the bin. The worst is that I'm always in the middle. Some bad movements,some bad talking, in the end some bullshit.
This is dedicated to those people who work in this business in a DiRTY way without any CLASS, STYLE, EDUCATION or EMPATHY. Will be a day, will be a day...The piece above is not finished, anyway.

Pues nada , que una panda de mierdas han echado mierda de toro por ahí y todo apesta... con lo honesto que es uno y la de porquería que le rodea.
Este proyecto se fue a la mierda por el movimiento serpentino y reptiliano de alguna babosilla.
Este dibujo que aquí veis se lo dedico a aquellos pobres de espíritu que trabajan en esto pisando con mala uva. Y no cuento más que no quiero manchar el blog.
El dibujo no está terminado de todas formas.

my way of work y mi manera de trabajar

2007-05-02T16:50:00.000-07:00

Bastante gente me pregunta siempre como trabajo, es digital? blah?
Pues cada vez trfabajo de una manera, y nunca sé como voy a trabajar la próxima vez.
Tengo mis propias técnicas, y para mí funcionan bien.
Me fuí por todo Londres( mentira, mi vecindario y alrededores del curro) y tomé apuntes y fotos para crear una calle enorme.
Siempre dibujo antes todo. Si no tengo una base de dibujo no sé por donde empezar. Con lápiz , regla y tintas Pantone.( que me encantan )
Luego escaneo y comienzo a pintar.
El resultado final está abajo.

Un abrazo

Few people ask me how I work .
I have my own techniques and is the way that work fine to me.
For this work at Xbox:
First I went all around London. I take lots of rough , drawings and sketches and photos.
Then I draw everything . I always draw everything before to get in the computer, otherwise I don't know how to began.
For my drawing I use pencil and pantones ( I love those materials)
Then I scan everything and start painting on top of my drawing.

You can see the final result

The final thing...
Al final, todo junto.

EXHIBITION 23th-28th April

The exhibition will be running until Saturday April the 28th. So If you want to visit us you still have time.
It would be great to see you.
You can see me in the picture with a stupid expression under some of the canvases.
I will post some of the pics of the canvases, a bit more close.
