JavaJava


Ok first off I want to thank Eirik of drawinks.com for being so awesome and allowing me to do this. I can't take credit for the idea because it was a doodle of his epic art that sparked the initial want to play with this! Rhinos are an animal I feel that do not get enough attention. both for their majesty and rarity. Many of which are critically endangered. The idea came to me immediately when I saw Eirik's sketch to place two and two together. What two do I speak of? well Javan Rhinoceros.. and Java (Coffee!)

Aullido Verde


Back in Sept I got an email from a professor at the University of Puerto Rico of Applied & Environmental Geophysics, asking if he could use a piece of my art to help educate children in grades K-12 about environmental awareness in the country. While sadly the image he asked me to do was designed for someone else, I happily volunteered to create something new and better I feel suits the cause.

The name of the project is called "Aullido Verde" that means the Green Howl in Spanish. Since their university's mascot is a wolf I felt it was fitting. Professor Acosta-Colon and his staff were most pleased :)
