1. What drew you to comics?
i always loved art since when i was studying in grade-school and high-school. my school used to put me in competitions with other schools and i usually won. but when i was in high school my friends introduced me to trading cards and comics and since then i got hooked collecting and drawing. i was fascinated with the x-men at first with all their colorful designs and powers then i got introduced with infinity gauntlet and that was my first comic book i bought in the store from then i decide that one day i would make drawing a profession.
2. Please tell us about your creative process.
first off, i studied advertising arts and then changed to architecture. from there i trained myself to be very professional and always precise with work. when i changes profession as a graphic designer and eventually an artist my professionalism and detail to work went in the process of my drawing professionally. if there is a job i usually imagine the concepts first and look at references on what i want to make. then i do drafts and thumbnails. then i transfer that to my drawing paper and sttart outlining them and give them details. after that if i am stisfied with the work i ink it. after ink i color it using watercolor, markers and other forms of materials. i also do digital art as well. the process for that is usually the same.
3. You have worked on some very well-known characters and titles — any you’d like to share about, in particular?
i have my own indie comic book here in the philippines and i have published some work here as well. but largely i do sketch cards for companies like marvel, dc, topps, cryptozoic, dynamite, and other companies. but right now i am a co owner of a sketch cards company that hires more than 60 artists here in the philippines and we distribute the artworks only in china. we usually do set on a regular monthly set. but right now i am working hard on a lot of marvel sets for upperdeck.
