The Bronx Botanical Garden

Published on August 31, 2009 By Eddie Pena

I went to The Botanical Gardens the other day and instead of drawing flowers I found myself in the middle of a cooking demonstration. It is one of many summer-long exhibitions the Garden is hosting.  It was fun drawing these guys, but the best part was eating the food! Thanks.

Chartres Cathedral

This is a drawing I produced on my trip to Paris. Inside the wacky yet beautiful Chartres Cathedral I came across this statue of what appears to be the Virgin Mary being carried by angles into heaven. It really caught my attention; it brought the design of the supernatural to life.

This was the last stop for Bravo’s open casting calls for a new hour long competition series among 13 up and coming contemporary artists.

Yes, I was in front of the White Columns at 5:30 am on a Sunday morning. There were a few other tryouts there that looked like they had camped out all night.

IAGO/Deception

Published on July 13, 2009 By Eddie Pena

Iago is a fictional character in Shakespeare’s Othello. I had been reading Othello and began to think about to best way to describe Iago, the deceiver, manipulator, reptile. His tongue split down the middle ready to speak dual truths.
I know people like this, they come to believe their own truths and they believe [...]
