Erick Montes Multi Media & Design

01 / 2018

This page is attributed to the road map of seasoned experience that I have acquired through the last 20+ years in digital graphic design, various printing processes and different types of multi media productions I have been a part of. I have also been able to explore new ventures in different aspects of multi media such as photography, large format giclée prints, digital fine art production, and more recently video production through higher education. My vision is to create a body of work with innovative ways of digital art production with newly acquired higher education skills in combination with new and improved digital printmaking materials.

I hope that you enjoy my work as much as I have the pleasure of creating the best version of my digital artwork and the stories behind their production. The essence of art has always resided naturally within me as my calling to inspire a new generation of internal reflective art becomes alive, which in turn has the potential to promote self awareness and motivation of oneself through art for a better outcome in our everyday struggles.

This is a visual story reflective of emotional inspirations experienced through everyday life, to make a change for the emotional beings that we are factually known to be.

BEFORE GOING DIGITAL

BEFORE GOING DIGITAL

06 / 2018

Before I landed on the digital side of things I would at times sit for hours studying comics and re-drawing some of my favorite comic characters at the time mainly in the likes of spawn. When image comics was making it’s presence known in the early 90’s, as marvel cards where becoming one of the hottest buys, i began to take more interest in drawing them. This gallery will include some of my pen and pencil work on different medias featured in grayscale digital format, even though they were drawn in black white. I chose to and preferred to dig out some of the strokes that cannot be seen by the naked eye, which can explain the blur in some of the pictures due to the closeup focal points of such pencil stroke details. Most of this work was drawn in the time of my teenage years before graduating high school and moving into what would become the beginning of my printing experience and further interest in digital art design production.
