Hello Internet!

Hi io9!

Today is an awesome day, I've been featured in io9! I can't say how happy I am and to hear all the nice feedback from everyone about my art. Since my website MrMauro.com can't handle the power of the internet, I'm going to post some of my more recent projects here.

for anyone interested in commissioning work, feel free to contact me @ MauroBalcazar@gmail.com


on to the work :-)

Here are 2 Mural I designed and painted for the Newark Venture Partners in downtown Newark NJ. I went with a very futuristic art deco meets tron feel. It took almost 3 solid weeks of non stop painting to get done.





I did a movie screening this Christmas and illustrated a poster for my favorite Christmas movie, Jingle all the way. Here's my design for the poster we gave away at the screening. also included is the invite i painted for the event.

                              

Now that the X-Files is back on screen, i thought its great timing to show you a design i illustrated for threadless' X-Files shirt contest. Based off of my favorite episode, "The Unnatural", here's Josh Exley in all his Baseball glory. watch the episode, it will make you cry, sorry not sorry. 


Heres a new take on the "Martian" illustration i did. It's based off of a scene in the book i quite liked with Watney trying to pose for a picture as the Fonz. Really liked the book and I hope it shows in this piece. 



lastly, some digital paintings i did on the ipad a while ago of Iron man. This was a fun way to destress after a long day.

Wait 'Till They Get A Load of Me!

I just re watched Batman (1989) on Netflix and wanted to do something different. I've been meaning to draw the Dr Seuss' Grinch for a while and i thought Jack Nicholson's introduction line was perfect to use for the Grinch, re interpreted of course :-)

Merry Christmas Grinches!

A Christmas story...sort of

I drew this originally as part of a friends magazine art project but dates got pushed back and I thought I could still use it somehow in time for Christmas. Here's a little story, albeit a weird one, about Christmas and well zombies sort of. enjoy and Happy Xmas- Mauro

Christmas or Bust!


this was a fun one. I love motorcycles and I'd be the 3rd elf riding the Ducati for sure. I thought it's be neat to do a biker gang style with santa and a few of his biker elves. Drew all the styles of motorcycles that I love. This is like a Christmas style "Wild Hogs". lol happy Holidays and hope you enjoyed it as much as i did - M

It's Turbo Time!! Turboman art and shirts by Mauro



It's Christmas time around here. thought I'd post this up, can't remember if i did years ago. One of my favorite films of the holidays has always been "Jingle all the way". I drew this as an homage to the film i grew up watching and to the character of Turboman!! It reminds me of my parents going crazy to always try and get me that 1 coveted action figure for xmas. (they had a crazy adventure trying to get me power rangers over a decade ago, makes me love this movie even more :-))

Here is some art i did and a t shirt design. you can still buy it for cheap on my store.
happy holidays.
