"Memento Vitae" My latest mission was to create a sculpture that would use new technologies to amplify ancient art techniques. Contrary to 3d pens, #lostwaxcasting casting is a process that's being forgotten in modern times. How could I mix these two arts? This piece is my first successful #3dpen sculpture to be cast in bronze. Boy, has this been an exciting process. Thank you @3doodler for your amazing art tool. Also, skulls. #3dprinted #petzval85 #skullart #mexicanartist #artistamexicano #3dpenart #mementomori #mementovitae #skullartist #diadelosmuertosart
It finally happened. After a couple of attempts, I finally cast a @3doodler sculpture in bronze! I'm extra proud of this first #bronzecasting of the year. All of the #3dpen details and traces are still there! 💀 #ringskull #3doodler #mixedmetaljewelry #mixedmediasculpture #bronzepatina #artbrussels #mexicanartist

First couple of days in my new home in Brussels. First priority: decorate the apartment with this King Kong puzzle that has followed me all the way from Sebastopol, California. Also, I still don't have a proper table. #sunnyvibes #kingkong #newyorker #supersoaker #mexicanos #bruselas #brussel #digitalnomad #bruxelles #1000pieces
Back to creating art, it's been a busy couple of months!
I finally got back to sketching with my @3doodler. Here's an Alebrije - a Mexican folk artform first created in Oaxaca by an artist called Pedro Linares. My #alebrije has the features of 6 different animals. Can you find them all?
