EvE 2018 artbook
illustrations inspired by Aleister Crowley poem "Eve"
"Eve" is a self-published work, with my personal cartoon style, part of the "Creepy Cartoon" series.
Four surreal pictures where made with colorful mix-media of water pencils and collage with gold paper and dried flower petals.
The Artbook includes the original poem "Eve" from the collection of poems that Aleister Crowley wrote inspired by the great sculptor Auguste Rodin,
named "Rodin in Rime" (Chiswick Press, at London 1907).
Also, my iconography is a reference to the myth of "The Garden of Hesperides". In this pictorial tale Eve takes the role of the last nymph of Hesperides,
determined to save the last apple of knowledge for humanity's sake.

Hecates Reborn 2016
A funny comic inspired by the myth of the goddess Hecate.
"They say she was the child of the Titans Perses and Asteria, others claim that she was a daughter of Zeus with Asteria or even daughter of Hera.
Always at the side of Zeus, she managed to outrage Hera who chased her until she hides under a dead man's procession. Hera stopped pursuing her but she cursed her.
Zeus, who cared for his child, ordered the Cabeiri to wash her in Aherousia Lake.
Thus the curse was removed and after that, she gained access to Hades as a psychopomp.

Nefeli's Menagerie 2016 artbook
Nefeli's Menagerie is a self-published work.
The original artworks that combine this artbook, were illustrated with watercolors and collage of natural materials such as dried flower petals combined with a flexible metal net.
The main idea was about to collect these creatures, but also their natural environment (through the harvest or petals) inside the pages of a Menagerie book.
"An osmosis of creatures and flowers, a journey, exultation of the world that surrounds us microscopically and macroscopically."
