7 deadly sins

One week ago i graduated from the National Academy of Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria. My diploma work is called “7 deadly sins”.
These 7 posters portray the 7 most objectionable vices. My idea was to connect all of these posters to the modern-day society.
Hope you like them.

Gluttony

Wroth

Lust

Envy

Sloth

Pride

Greed

Wacom Ads

I got something different to show this time. I made these Wacom ads for a school assignment.
The task was to create 3 advertising posters for any product or company that we want.
It was free to choose.My love of Wacom products incited me to create these funny pieces.
Maybe after reading the slogan you already get the idea.
The traditional painting is something great, but if you’re the type of artist that doesn’t want to
dirt himself or can’t handle with traditional brushes and oil colors,
you better choose Wacom tablet to bring your ideas to life.
I tried to contact the company and ask them what they think about the idea and if they like it,
but never found an e-mail of their advertising department or PR. I know that these posters
are pretty aggressive and can’t relate to their image by no means, but thought the idea
fits well for digital drawing.And since my favorite tablet brand is Wacom, i chose to advertise them.

Jimmy Mack Book cover – oil painting

bocho — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 01:11:10 +0000

It’s something interesting this time. The summer of 2009 i was commissioned to do a book cover for “Jimmy Mack” by Lawrence Hilliard. As far as i remember the story is about a Mafia boss called Jimmy Mack. He owns a record label too. The scene is laid in the Harlem renaissance and the youth of New York.
Since we talk about Harlem and a record label in this story, my idea is to make something crazy of these 2 elements. I immediately came up with the idea of putting real records and turn-tables on the project building’s rooftops. I grabbed my painting brushes and oil colors and created this, then i created the typography for the title. Here are 2 versions, the naked art and the layout itself. Hope you dig it. You can order the book here.

Unimaginable pin-up.

bocho — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 23:38:06 +0000

I just finished my work on this pin-up. It will be included in the 1st issue of the comic book “Unimaginable”. It might be a top secret, but I’ll share it with you. I saw some of the finished pages of this graphic novel and they look awesome! The characters look very neat and original. My choice was to draw Lank; half grasshopper, half man. But anyways, let me tell you little more about this book. : Writer - Tom Pinchuk, Penciler – Kurt Belcher, Inker - Levi Skeen, Colorist – Zachary Turner, Letterer – Matt Nelson and it will be pulblished by Sean O’Reilly and Arcana Comics, pretty soon. Stay tuned for more info and don’t forget to check for more updates here in my website and Arcana Comics.
