Here it is! First piece of the year. “Light is like water” 10 x 6.5” . Based on a short story with the same title by Gabo. I found the story simple and yet beautiful and compelling. In the end kids quite literally end up drowning in light, an idea that spoke to me in such a personal way that I decided to do my own take on it. This one’s acrylics/color pencils and I ended up doing some small adjustments in Photoshop. The original painting does have iridescent acrylic which is not easy to scan but you can see it better in the pics.  Rare for me to say this but I’m quite happy with how this one turned out, especially cus I’ve been increasingly interested in using more graphic elements in my work and I really enjoyed that part of the image. Anyway, hope you like it! and off to the next piece, so stay tuned and for more updates follow on on IG @diegoillustration

I'm not big into fan art but GoT is back and I thought I would do a few of my fav characters. And since snakes have been the apparent theme lately here's a little Ellaria Sand. Also I missed the first episode. I'll do a more relevant character next time.

Throwback to a piece a did earlier this year and never actually posted. I felt like I wanted to revisit it a bit but soon I'll post the full final version. #graphite #digital #photoshop #Diegopenuela

My process is usually slow, and now that I can only work a few hours a day is even worst. But I still trying to do a bit every day. Very crappy pic of a current #wip #graphite and #digital #photoshop #Diegopenuela

More #sketches, #graphite #Diegopenuela

So, retaking some #painting practice with a #portrait. If I was rusty with drawing I'm even worst at this. Anyway. Inspired on one of my fav characters from #GoT. Hopefully I'll do a better rendition some other time. #acrylics #sketchbook #Diegopenuela
