Grunge, Punk, Rock & Roll and Skyscrapers, Seattle hits you harder than you can imagine with all its passion and messiness. Spending my Birthday in Seattle was a dream since I was 19, since I discovered that music’s branch that crept into my veins and slapped my face with a metal glove. Only one year ago I would never image something like that, but finally I was there, and all the words are useless. Seattle is a beating heart of art and music, dirty, nostalgic, euphoric and sad, Seattle was a dream, and I lived that dream on a very special day!
A bit for fun, a bit for exercising, I present you the first part of my speed painting series based on one of my favourite DC Comics characters, The Flash. I recorded this video with Quicktime on my MacBook Pro 2011 with a Wacom Cintiq 13HD. This is just the first part, a fast sketch to set the space and figured out the character position. Hopefully, next week I’m gonna publish the detailed line-art and the inking section. Enjoy!

We all like slick, simple and super clean design, but sometimes when it comes that kind of client, could happen that we’re forced to throw our skills into the trash bin and bend over at the immense power of money or the infinite emptiness of our client’s brain. Create a shitty 2000s button in CSS3, and bring back the web2.0 graphic style with the strength of a kick in the nuts.
In this tutorial I’m gonna show you how to radically change the front look of the blog page of WordPress. I suggest you to start with the default theme from a WordPress fresh installation, because this code could not works with some heavy customized themes. In this case I’m gonna use the default Twenty Eleven WordPress Theme, so, let’s get started!
Do you start your artwork with pen and paper? But at the same time regret that your work is stuck on paper until you have scanned the image? Then Inkling is an indispensable tool for you. This digital sketch pen allows you to sketch with a real ballpoint pen on any paper.
Life changing decisions. How I’m going to handle my decision to moving to Canada, my future job, and my life in general?
I’ve never been a good storyteller because I always end up to ramble between different topics, and I can’t just focus on one argument if nothing practical is involved, like a tutorial or a product or a job. Just like now, I’m talking about nothing, so, it’s better to get started with something understandable.
