I got a really nice surprise today. My piece Queen - The Miracle ( [link] got a DD! Today was going to be Freddie Mercury´s 65th birthday. Although I did this piece 6 YEARS ago (OMG) the good thing is that I did this piece with my friend :iconjorgepacker: , so we both got a DD.

To celebrate Freddie Mercury´s legacy in music and his birthday, I did this new piece as a homage to him: [link]

Hope you like it!

Hey Everyone!

Let me get started talking about my The only Apple deviation ( [link] ). It´s an illustration I did for the Greek magazine called Go Natural.
Two months ago, :iconblasianonna: suggested it for a Daily Deviation and Deviant Art made this surprise for me.

Also, I made a video about the creation process of this piece. You can watch the creation process from the pencil sketch to to final vector illustration.
:thumb99683265:

Watch the extended version here (21min): [link]
Watch the short version here (10 min): [link]

I hope you like it.

Let me tell you about my prints. I deactivaded them for I while. Now, the only prints I have available are The only apple and The cat and the Moon pieces:

  

Also: I´d like to thank :iconvector-artists: for a bunch of features they have given me in the last months.
Here they are:

Don´t forget to go there if you can see a lot of good and beautiful vector illustrations.

The next news I´m gonna leave to the next journal.

See you then!

10 things about my art

Sun Aug 17, 2008, 7:07 PM

My World Visitor Profile Map

I´ve beem tagged by :iconstudiocartoon: to write 10 things about my art. Well, I´m gonna try write the less I can...becauseI may star a book here...lol

1- I didn´t have a lot of friends when I was a kid, mainly because I moved from one city to another a lot, so I drew all the time.

2- I´m luck that my parents never tried to divert me from the artistic life. As blocked-minded my father can be sometimes, he never tried to make me follow another kind of carrer. But they weren´t as encouraging as they could´ve been as well.

3- All my time in school most of people used to think me as a cocky person because I used to show my drawings, but I only showed them when people asked me to.

4 - My first water color pencils box I won from my Math teacher, when I was eleven.

5 - When I  entered Graphic Design graduation I denied my artistic part for most of the time, and I regret to have thought this way once in my life.

6- My first exposition was a colection of works from my city´s art society, which I don´t live in anymore. I exposed just three art pieces, all oriental themed.

7- I have a paste A2 sized and an A4 size in which I keep all my private creations. I only show them to very close friends.

8- I hate to follow just one style. Tradicional or digital, I have the unbareble need to change it. From manga style, to comic, to realism, I can´t keep just one. I used to think it was a bad thing, cause my style is not recognizable, but now I like this, because each style I land, I take the things I like and add to my current on, whichends up to be the mixture of every style I already drew.

9- I can´t draw sad an macabre things... Well, technicly I can, but I just don´t like it.

10- I think that my art is made for me to express myself in anyway I want to. But I also think that I have to leave something useful to the world with my art. Otherwise why would I be able to draw? Not just to pay my bills I guess.

Well, thats it.
Hope u enjoy knowing a little more about my art.

Hello Everybody!

I´ve had been having some time lately, ´cause january is not a very good month for freelancer jobs, so I am having time to draw for myself. I´m gonna be posting a lot of illustrations this year!

To be closer to you I have some exciting news!
:new:First, I want to make new prints with some of my old deviations, can you help me figure out which of them are your favorites? Here they are:

:thumb44861962: :thumb74011282:
:thumb60868906:   :thumb74073212:

As you can see, I´m changing a little bit from vector art to digital painting. Well, I guess it´s normal, I don´t like making the same things, I like changes. But I´ll always go back to vector from time to time, as to water colors, and other styles.

:new:YES!WE HAVE POLLS!
You wanna help me in the next illustratiôn? Here´s the deal:
There will be four polls asking about the elements of my next illustration, and you can thecide which they´re gonna be!
Quick! We´re already on the third poll! Here are the links to them, you can still vote!

POLL 1 (main character): [link]
POLL 2 (scenario background): [link]
POLL 3 (scenario main element): [link]

I hope you help me OK?

Best wishes for all! PEACE and LOVE!
Kisses from Brazil!

A great news is that I want some help from you to decide how my next illustration is gonna be like.So PAY ATTENTION:

There will be 4 Polls here, to decide the four basic elements of it: Main Character, Background Scenario, Wheather an Main Scenario. You have one week to vote for each category, then I´m gonna draw the combination of the four things you decided ok?
Each poll will have 3 diferent options so you can combine the polls´answers in a creative way!

The first Poll is already on, CHOOSE THE CHARACTER!

Hey there!

Stay tuned! 2008 will be a year of exciting news!
I´m working very hard to bring very cool stuff. Sorry, but the thing you will see less and less here is vector art based on people´s face pictures. As I´ve been really busy with work,´I´m focusing my free time on 100% created illustrations. Most of them with kids themes.
But probably I´ll post  some extra art this year yet.

I hope u like it, please stay tuned!

See ya all in 2008!!!

Hey, Kris Barz now is a subscriber!

Hey guys!
The best news in this post is that NOW you can have my prints here at DA. I´ve picked out jus a few from all of my deviations, the ones I noticed that please more people an that I imagine you would want to have in your home, as a print, canvas, mousepads, whatever you decide!

:new:You can purchase my last three deviations: Frogy Frog, Afraid and Night Up, all vectors of brazillian animals from Atlantic Forest. They were part of my monography to graduate in Graphic Design.

:shop600462:  

:shop601065:

:shop606179:

The final Illustration of it was this [link]

:shop601585:
The other two deviations that you can purchase are Orange Nightfall, which is my "most viewed" and appearently tha one people like the most.

:shop601667:
And Flirting Sunset, the one I like the most, because of the romance feeling it has. A funny thing about this one is that months after I submited it, I found out that the two people on the original photo were two girls!!! XD
Well, I liked it even more (no, I don´t have a woman-woman action fetiche) but I do support same-sex relationships.

:new:Other News:
My Graduation Party is this friday!Tomorrow! YAY!

I have some news for you!
I´m creating another DA account just for my works as a Graphic Designer! I´ll continue posting my illustrations here, though.
In the other DA you can check my work in Packaging, Advertising, Logotypes an so on!

The adress is: [link]
The avatar is the same as this one!
:iconkrisbarz-design:

Hope I see you there!
Feel free to watch!


As I´ve said before, I´m really busy from my college final work, but I´m drawing vectors in the little spare time I have once in a while, as you can see on my last vector deviation > [link]

I´ve also just updated my ID, you can check that out here > [link]

So let´s cut to the chase. The artist I´m talking about on this journal is E-motional, his nickname here in DA.
:icone-motional:

His work is very original, such as varied. He can draw from pure manga style, photo-based vectors (but still mantaining a stilized art), to a very original series with influences I believe is from Mucha.

Besides the beauty of his work, the thing about his art I like the most is that he creates a lot in his images, he goes beyond the original photo.
Check his DA page: [link]
I recommend it!
