el justiciero // less messing, more editing






hello! hope you're having a good weekend so far. i decided to get on with editing some drawings for the show... a lot of them still feel unfinished and i think i should take some out/// it's just good to play with arranging them together to see a narrative develop. but... are they working + together +...what do you think?
for those of you who haven't been following the development of this project, here's a link to the track it's inspired by. enjoy!

OH MY! thereza!! these are amazing. unbelievable. i don't even know where to start. out of curiosity, the 'BUENOS DIAS' and 'CHA CHA CHA'... are they paper cutouts? or painted? now i want to go cut out letters...
but first, i have dos hijas con MUCHA hambre, and my el justiciero already came to my rescue this morning, so now i guess it's my turn :)

great work! brilliant!

Amazing, you are overruled :) you should present each of them in the show! I enjoyed listening to the sing, while watching your drawings. Will you play it in the show?

parisa mahmoudi said...

They are really fantastic!!!So happy to find your blog!Love it! :)

gracia said...

Great work... all of it. Editing has never been a strong point of mine, I feel. I cull the wrong things.

I am really liking these recent drawings of yours. So otherworldly and distinctly yours.

Happy working, g xo

Charlotte Tollstén said...

I love them all.

Rynke said...

They are really nice!! I like how for example the red one with the mustaches is a bit more solid :)

Jo Cheung said...

You're sooo talented! I can't wait to see your show too :)

Kiwitz said...

i´m so excited about your project, cause these days on, i´ve been listening a lot to Os Mutantes.

I love them and I love the way you´ve traduced their psicodelic music!

Anairam said...

Brilliant! I love it!! And I do not think anything should be removed - they ALL have to stay! (The one thing that jarred a bit for me was the "torn" format of the first yellow introductory bit - but that is just a personal preference - I would have had the top of it straight and just the bottom torn ...) Oh, I wish I could attend the show!

lea said...

oh this is the full el justiciero story, very lovely drawings - all of them! i'm especially fascinated with the one of the guns shooting flowers and the close up of his mask covered head. don't take anything away! you really get a sense of one story in all the small fragments put together

marie-louise said...

So many news - you are a working hero these summer days!!!!!!!!!
And it look so good!

LSA Illustration said...

It´s nice to see them together...I like like and just like the mixing of letter/cut/drawing...Go for it girl...awesome :)

nathalie et cetera said...

Yes, after chaos comes organization... and soon a story. If you throw away some of these images, I hope you will salvage the mustaches. I love this simple illustration!

Mary said...

LOVE them all, the story with the soundtrack is just perfect!

Jane said...

oooo these are lovely! I specially like the one with the hot chocolate stack...

Aris said...

Thereza your characters are amazing! So skinny and so strong! They walk and carry themselves with such confidence and strength even on such little legs. They have such a presence and I love the colorful world they all live in. Well done!

acozendey said...

Enfim apareci...

Acho que o trabalho está muito bonito, os personagens estão muito legais, as inserções de texto também, tudo bem gráfico! Essa imagem final é o arranjo proposto pra parede? Tz as únicas coisas que me covenceram menos foram o sol e o pássaro, apesar de que gosto da idéia do sol, e gostei dele acima, mas aqui tz esteja um pouco perdido, sei lá... Será que ficava bom maior?? Não vejo a hora de ver os originais na exposição!!

le petit said...

ohhh they´re fabulous !!! i looove them!! but...ammmm i think you have a couple of spelling mistakes :S .maybe i could help you out? i´m mexican btw :) :) "paga lo que deBes" is with B, socuerro is actually "socorro" and ayuda-me is "ayúdame"....then you have tiengo chocolate quiente which should be "tengo chocolate caliente"....sorry if i´m meddling too much, i just thought you should know that, just in case......and your illustrations will look SUPERB !!!! :) cheers
