HOME

This piece was made on Illustrator combing multiple elements to create an ocean landscape. Lately when I think of home I think of the ocean and it's tranquil nature. I also added birds to represent flying home and to make the piece look more realistic. 

NANDO

"NANDO"  is a culmination of a custom hydro-dipped inspired background with text warping and 3d effects added on top. I used ray-tracing to enhance the 3d text and even added a shadow to make the text look more realistic. "Nando" is a nickname my friends call me since my middle name is Fernando.

WAVE

Wave combines what I learned with warping text with a custom liquid design background. I created the background on photoshop and then moved it to Illustrator to add the text. I created lines multiple colored lines and distorted them to create a hydro-dip inspired background for this piece.

NITRO

"NITRO" is the first evolutionary step I took going deeper into warping text on illustrator. Although the piece is simple, the text is warped and turned into a 3d object. This gives the text a much more realistic look.

I have always been a fan of Star Wars and especially the opening crawl. I used Illustrator and text distortion to imitate the opening of the movie/logo. 

The Peak

This piece was made in Illustrator and depicts a mountain landscape. The "Peak" is supposed to represent a flag standing on the top of the mountain. I used warp effects on the text to create the flag effect. The birds and mountain are assets I found online that I altered.
