I did a couple of illustrations last October for Vivid Creative Media. These illustrations will be used for custom paper goods and gifts.

Illustration Friday’s theme for this week is “Racing”. Running events are all around the country these days. It’s good that people now are more involved in healthy activities like running. I’ve tried joining one year ago, and I’m hoping to participate again in the future.

Since it’s the spooky month of October, let’s keep the terror coming! It’s all about “Spooky” things in this week’s Illustration Friday.
The mythical creature in this illustration is called an Aswang. Aswang is a generic term used in Philippine mythology for supernatural beings like manananggals (half-body of a human, with bat-like wings), witches, shapeshifters, and lycanthropes. These creatures are described as having an ordinary human body by day, then transforming into a monstrous creature (usually animals) at night.

I was supposed to submit this for Illustration Friday’s “Immovable” topic. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to upload it last Thursday. I have to make sure I get to submit on time next week. Here it is anyway. This particular scene shows true friendship as immovable.

There is something fascinating about monster characters. Their uniqueness and out-of-this-world characteristics must be the factors making them interesting, for me at least.
There’s this blog called Monsters in Real Places(MIRP). They allow artists from all over the world to submit art for the MIRP community. For the submissions, they require the use of any photograph, and as the artist, you should create and add a monster into the photo. I got interested in the blog, so I made something to share with the community. Unfortunately, the blog has been idle for months already, so I’ll just share and post my work here.
Chasey on my desk. He's actually my cousin's dog.
You can visit the MIRP blog if you want to see the other submissions. Happy weekend!
**Update: It has been uploaded last September 8 in the MIRP blog. Check it out here.
