"Vincenzo" the human warrior

Actually, the idea was to call him Breogàn, since I was inspired by the ancient Celtic warriors and Breogàn was the name of the Celic warrior who, according to a legend, was the founder of Galicia (that is where I'm living in this moment), but my better-half (a true Galician man) named him 'Vincenzo'. When I asked why he replied to me: "Ma perché vince sempre!" that is the Italian for: "Of course because he always wins!". Yes, the Italian name "Vincenzo" sounds a lot like the verb "vincere" that means "to win".

At that point, with a motive explaned in my own native language... how could I help choosing this name?

Dark Embrace fan art

In need for a bit of relax, I drawed a fan art for one of my favourite metal band: Dark Embrace (chek them out here)

By the way, they were so kind to use my little draw as their facebook banner... I'm so proud!

Elf sorceress wip

This is definitely a work in progress time. Here there is the first step of a commission: behold the elf sorceress pencil sketch.

Work in progress mermaid

It's an idea I had been thinking for a while, at the moment it's just a work in progress... let's see what happens

Chibi mermaid

Again... speaking of goldfish, a chibi version of a mermaid.

Black moor...

... or black telescope, it's the common black goldfish you can see more or less in every fishtank: here there is my Mermay 20, this elegant curvy beaury ready for a prom.

Muraena helena

My mermay 19, inspired by a picture on one of my father's books where, as I child, I used to see the 'smiling fish' Muraena helena

Orcinus orca

This smart curvy beauty is my entrance for the day 18 of MerMay.

Physalia physalis mermaid

Latley Physalia physalis is always in the news because of an invasion she is doing of the southern Spain coasts, so it came naturally to me to draw a Physalia physalis medmaid as a MerMay day 17.

Cyprinus carpio mermaid

Oooops! Maybe this little Chinese princess butterfly koi mermaid messed up something.

Here there is my MerMay 16.

Keeping on without being able to be up at the day

MerMay 11 Steampunk Periophthalmus argentilineatus

Periophthalmus argentilineatus is a little fish a.k.a mudskipper because of its habit of go out the water and spend some time in the mud. For this peculiar fish I imagined a steampunk mermaid and drawed it in crayons, pantone, and coffee spreaded by a make-up brush since in my new home I didn't brought my watercolour brushes at the moment.

Higher Ground

The day after, I'm definitely still in Eurovision Songs Contest hangover. I loved particularly Denmark's song, performed by Rasmussen (but hey: Austria, Italy, Hungary and Moldova you're in my heart too), and I couldn't help drawing a quick viking themed sketch.

Here there is my trubute all in pantone and ball-point pen to Higer Ground (if you click on the name, you can listen to the song).

Dancing betta splendend

Today my MerMay 10 is setted in Cambodia: a betta splendens siren drawed in pantone like a Cambodian dancer.

Tribute to Galicia: Octopus Mermaid

The today marmaid is a tribute to the land that is my new home: Galicia, where eating octopus is pretty common.

Here there is my Octopus vulgaris mermaid for MerMay day 9

Underwater funk - MerMay 8

Slowly I'm catching up the date. Here there is my MerMay number 8: the Poecilia reticulata mermaid a.k.a. lebistes or guppy: the funky mermaid.

Free your mind...

Mermay 7

This time I choose an African fish: the Noceratodus forsteri a.k.a. dipnoo and gave her an art nouveau touch.

Hello Mr. Mom - MerMay 6

From wiki: "The male seahorse is equipped with a pouch on the ventral, or front-facing, side of the tail. When mating, the female seahorse deposits up to 1,500 eggs in the male's pouch. The male carries the egg until the seahorses emerge fully developed"
