MY ICONOCLASTIC DEAD (Guillermo Del Toro) - "Que es un fantasma?"

¿Qué es un fantasma? Un evento terrible condenado a repetirse una y otra vez, un instante de dolor, quizá algo muerto que parece por momentos vivo aún, un sentimiento, suspendido en el tiempo, como una fotografía borrosa, como un insecto atrapado en ámbar. Un fantasma, eso soy yo."

-My favorite narration and lines from "El Espinazo del Diablo"

Guillermo Del Toro is a passionate man and leader that has influenced me tremendously. As a person, with my work ethic, as a producer of different projects, and as an artist. This is my tribute to him in the "Dia de Muertos" fashion for the Autumn Society's THE ICONOCLASTIC DEAD show in Guru Gallery this Saturday, October 1st (Mexico City).

I will be flying out for the event, and am very excited to be part of our new and latest branch, Autumn Society Mexico (with German Orozco, Jorsh Pena, Rosario Ruiz, and Anita Mejia). Until we meet again and updates soon! "HASTA LA VICTORIA SIEMPRE!"

3D!

Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger!!! "Terror! Eaten In An Instant"

 
My SUPER SENTAI (known as the "POWER RANGERS" in the US) tribute for the upcoming KAMEN RIDER VS SUPER SENTAI Anniversaries Tribute Exhibition, at the Japanese American Cultural and Community Center this Saturday!!! Brought to you by the fine folks at Q Pop and Christopher Mitchell

My piece is inspired by the "Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger" episode "恐怖! 瞬間喰い" (Terror! Eaten In An Instant), featuring ...Pudgy Pig (ドーラキルケ).

In my version, the Rangers obviously don't make it....

GUILLERMO DEL TORO TRIBUTE

This a tribute I did for one of the most influential artists / movie directors in my life. His name is Guillermo Del Toro. My illustration tributes his 3 original films: Cronos (the cronos device), The Devil's Backbone (Santi, the ghost), and Pan's Labyrinth (the Faun). I also did this to coincide with a signing and screening for the release of Cronos on criterion DVD. The criterion also includes Del Toro's short film Geometria, which was a real treat to watch on a big screen and features a lot of the ideas and elements that he implements into his movies today.

Del Toro spoke about learning & growing in an art medium (for any artist) by making mistakes and borrowing inspiration from others. He also spoke of his early influences of Mario Bava and Dario Argento (who inspired him heavily on color palettes and lighting of scenes) films.

All in all it was an amazing night with a super inspirational & bigger than life human being, who speaks from his heart, and makes the work he wants to make regardless of what anyone thinks.

Prints will be available soon @ chogrin.etsy.com
