The Book

 

 

Why ZURDO? what does it mean? the word itself means “lefty” in Spanish. It’s a trait I share with my mother, it’s no revelation that left handed people are in the minority of the population, growing up I would hear these stories from my mother and uncles about how left handed people were mistreated in their childhood, forced to use the right hand and punished if they did otherwise, as if there is something wrong  or evil with them for using their left side, something…”sinister” which is a synonym for “left” in Spanish, “siniestro”. I had the privilege to not grow up in that generation,  as a kid I was encouraged to use my left and have creative freedom to explore whatever I imagined, so ZURDO is that, the embracement of that left side.

 

In this book I plan to revisit some of my favorite artworks from my 15 year career as an artist, featuring some familiar work from covers and character designs but also showing some of the personal art that has never been seen before. This book features some of the behind the scenes process work, exploring the different medias from my digital process to my work in traditional art like markers and watercolors. In the end it will be a retrospect on my evolution as an artist. I’ve always felt looking back at older work can sometimes be a wise teacher.
