New illustration for Medical Alumni magazine. The theme: basically  two neuro-scientists at Tufts School of Medicine have perfected  technology for identifying a nearly unlimited range of odors  ... land,mines, mold, bacteria, chemical spills, etc.. 

New drawing for my unpublished files.

This page illustration was done recently for Ciência Hoje das Crianças, Brazilian children's magazine. A poem of Fernando Pessoa, one of the greatest Portuguese writers. 

We that work with commercial illustration know it is a kind of art that has well-defined rules: text, a defined lay-out, conversation with the AD and a final-art that pleases everybody, being as understandable as possible. 
But besides the every day work, I like drawing to myself and I think that I came to create a "private universe", where there are no rules.  
I always liked Donald Duck and his city full of dogs, ducks, mice that live "in harmony".  I thought: I can do the same! To mix characters, fragmented images, add some phrases, different languages, and make all sort of associations.  Kind of a "crazy-bossa-samba-pop". 
With no "great concept" at all, just the pleasure of drawing and having a good time. As time went by, these "qualities" have been interacting with my commercial work. As a matter of fact,  these drawings make me very happy, and are part of a small book I am preparing to be published in June, with new and old drawings. 
Thank you for your comments about this series Black/ White, you make feel that I am in the right way.
