My friends of Calavera Comics have their new apparel brand, Fistful was founded by illustrator Alexis Ziritt, designer Mark Malazarte, and graphic designer/Renaissance Man “AZN Mike” Houlihan. Inspired by cult and genre cinema, Japanese and European comics, Mexican culture, movie poster design, plus the whimsy and aesthetics of the Silver Age of Comic Books, Fistful specializes in creating hand-rendered art, bringing the Calavera Universe from print to apparel form.

This is an artwork I did for a very special friend, began as something little and ended up being something much bigger, I think is one more step in the developing my own style, were more than three months to work on the aesthetic I wanted to obtain and we are satisfied with the results.

This is the beginning of many works to come, I hope you enjoy it.

Cementerio La Recoleta

Published on Monday, 12 April, 2010 in Photos and Travels. 0 Comments

La Recoleta Cemetery is a famous cemetery located in the exclusive Recoleta neighbourhood ofBuenos Aires, Argentina. The layout of the cemetery was designed by the French engineerPróspero Catelin, and was remodeled in 1881, while Torcuato de Alvear was mayor of the city, by the Italian architect Juan Antonio Buschiazzo.

The Cemetery includes graves of some of the most influential and important Argentinians, including several presidents, scientists, and wealthy characters. Internationally, Eva Perón is the best-known person buried in this cemetery.

The entrance to the cemetery is through neo-classical gates with tall Greek columns. The cemetery contains many elaborate marble mausoleums, decorated with statues, in a wide variety of architectural styles. The entire cemetery is laid out in sections like city blocks, with wide tree-lined main walkways branching into sidewalks filled with mausoleums.

While many of the mausoleums are in fine shape and well-maintained, others have fallen into disrepair. Several can be found with broken glass and littered with rubbish.

Each mausoleum bears the family name etched into the facade; brass or bronze plaques are added to the front for particular family members. La Recoleta is one of those cemeteries where the tradition of engraving a death date but no birth date has been maintained.
