I love your subtle use of color and light.

Rich Green

Really enjoy your character design and style! Very nice!

Javier Diaz

@Peter-Jarvis Thanks for the comments. They are indeed digital. It's a mix of some watercolour and gouache brushes I found.

@Javier-Diaz Hey - really great work! I love your style. Awesome expressions on your characters too, their personalities really come through.

I checked out your site (which has even more great stuff!) and saw you live in Vancouver BC too (well, technically I live in North Delta)! Even more random - and I promise I didn't really mean to creep on you, was just interested in your work at first - but you went to the same college as me (Seneca) too! I went there for fashion design (which I'm not even doing now - graphic design is my day job...even then I'd rather be illustrating! Why we're here, right?!). Anyhow, just wanted to compliment your work and say howdy, neighbour!

Oh - one question... I really love the strokes your brushes make. Would you be willing to share them?

Javier Diaz

@DanetteDraws Thanks so much! Totally cool, it's nice to meet another BC folk on here.

The brushes I use, are from here: http://www.gumroad.com/kyletwebster
They aren't free, but I have found them to be worth it!
