Human 2.0: A Celebration of the Tech that is Changing Our Lives

A commissioned volume by Big Picture Press and author Patrick Kane, for which I provided the cover and interior illustrations. This project explores the frontiers of medical engineering, focusing on the technological and biological achievements currently reshaping the human experience.

The process involved translating complex scientific concepts—from bionics to advanced surgical systems—into a cohesive visual language. By developing a detailed series of illustrations, the work provides a visual record of how we are evolving through technology. This publication is designed to endure as a long-term cultural asset and educational resource.

Production: Big Picture Press + Patrick Kane Release Year: 2023

Estela Undrowning (HarperCollins)

I was commissioned by HarperCollins to illustrate the cover for René Peňa-Govea’s Estela in Undrowning. For this project, I tried to capture the protagonist's emotional and ancestral connection to her environment, creating a singular image that grounds the narrative’s themes of memory and resilience.

The process involved balancing "street-level" authenticity—incorporating cultural markers like the 29 Sunset bus and bamboo earrings—with a disciplined, structured composition. By focusing on the flow and movement within the portrait, I provided the publisher with a cover that acts as a definitive visual anchor for the story as it reaches a global audience.
