For this Illustration book I took inspiration in the Mexican culture and some of the things that I like of it. I combine normal stuff with some things that I like and represent Mexican culture like the food, myths and legends and the fauna and flora of the country.
I did some quick thumb nails in a sticky note, thinking in the elements that I wanted to represent in the illustrations, the I selected the ones that I like the most, then I did the sketches for everyone of the illustrations in a piece of paper correcting the things that I didn't like to leave them the way I wanted them. After I had the sketch, I passed the drawing to my iPad to drew it digitally and make some final corrections to the drawing. Finally, when I had the line art done and the way that I wanted, I selected a color palette and make the final details to finish the Illustrations.

At the end, when I had all the drawings finished, I organize them and printed the book.
