Warhammer 40000
Here is a fan art painting of Warhammer 40,000, which you can see at the bottom of this page. My drawing is not a reproduction; I created it to study values, layout, perspective, dynamics, and camera view. The focus was to make the composition more dynamic while drawing the same character along with all his details and accessories from a different angle, using only values.

Portraits
2023
Here are some traditional portraits I painted using soft pastels. I generally enjoy exploring human gestures, eye and facial expressions, as well as values and colors to achieve an interesting rendering. Since childhood, I have observed my environment and the people around me extensively to build my visual memory over the years, and I have always felt the need to draw everything.
Jerry Mouse HNY
2023
Here is the complete process of a short animated clip I created featuring Jerry Mouse fighting COVID-19. This project served as a course to primarily teach the use of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator, as well as how to work in Adobe Animate and Adobe Premiere Pro. Throughout the process, I provided advice on the basics of 2D animation, referencing both of my all-time favorite books by Preston Blair and Richard Williams.
Canon Boy
2023
Here is a very simple cartoon character I designed for the drawing classes to gently introduce students to the art of character design and development. I generally start these courses with basic shapes to ensure that the material is comprehensible for everyone, including complete beginners. This course covers a variety of digital techniques and emphasizes organization in Adobe Photoshop. After gaining knowledge from this course, students can advance their skills and tackle more complex designs for their film school projects.
Saint Seiya
2023
The goal was to draw inspiration from the original Saint Seiya manga character from the Knights of the Zodiac anime, using its iconic gesture. The challenge was to change the lighting from the reference and create an entirely new composition from scratch that does not exist among the reference images available online. The focus here was primarily on studying composition, gesture, and values, while also enjoying the process of drawing a manga character I admired greatly in my youth. I created this drawing using Adobe Photoshop and completed the final rendering in Adobe After Effects.
I have uploaded a timelapse of my entire drawing process here.
Cutie Pie
2023
Another art course I created focuses on teaching colors and values through the design of a cute kitten. I believe this is also an excellent way to explain how to paint fur digitally without using downloaded brushes.
Chats
2023
Here are some traditional cat portraits I painted using soft pastels. My focus was primarily on painting fur and accurately interpreting colors—after all, a black cat isn’t just black! There are many other colors in its fur, such as greens, blues, and browns, which, when combined with values, create a more realistic rendering of the fur. The first drawing was made using sanguine pencil and charcoal while observing my cat, serving as an excellent exercise for capturing feline expressions.
Spidey Infinity
2023
In this course I designed for my students, the challenge is to draw the Spidey Infinity toy, focusing on replicating the superhero landing pose from the provided statue photo. Students will start with a rough sketch and develop it into clean line art. Using the same lighting direction as in the reference, they will create their artwork in a comic style, incorporating hatching and action lines into the composition.
The final step is to animate the character in a seamless loop, followed by post-production enhancements.
Link Tears Of The Kingdom
2023
The objective of this illustration was to use the Link statue as a reference to create a completely new composition, following these steps: line art, shading, lighting, coloring, rendering, and special effects (FX). I have also cropped some close-up sections, so feel free to zoom in for more detail.
Spring Apple
2023
As an art teacher, here is one of the many digital drawing and painting courses I created to explain values and how to use colors on a simple shape. In this course, students will learn to render a proper apple under a chosen lighting atmosphere, such as a spring morning outdoors. I also provide valuable digital techniques in Adobe Photoshop to replicate traditional art in a digital medium. Once students have completed this painting following my guidance and demonstrations, I generally encourage them to attempt the exercise using different lighting atmospheres.
Petit Pierre
2023
Here is a drawing I created, inspired by one of my two brothers named Pierre, and it's dedicated to him. As an overly sensitive little boy, he used to cry a lot, but he was also quite active, often getting bruises at school from fighting like a little brawler and coming home with a black eye. I remember he would always injure himself while attempting stunts to entertain the other kids and bring them joy.
