ANA HINOJOSA

A sneak peak into one of my backgrounds and their process. Done for my senior project at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design.

A couple pages of my pencil comic about the story of a kind-hearted boy named Gustavo who has left his home of possum hunting family through the wooded palm leaf forest only to run into... "The Enemy".

Illustration done for Rookie Magazine for an article titled "Waited Time"

December 2016

The two pieces done for the CLAWS Exhibition that was curated by Allegra Lockstadt and Meghan Murphy and shown at the Public Funtionary. 

These two pieces compliment each other by being tied to the Latinx queer identity (Caribbean centric) and were a response to the 2016 Orlando shooting that took place at Pulse, a gay nightclub. Bearing the words "DON'T FORGET ME" in Spanish on the back of a jean jacket for the wide range of Latinx members of the queer community that were killed that night. Every other aspect of these illustrations are for bringing luck and prosperity to the Latinx queer community and to show carefree queer characters not having to worry about unfortunente things like the shooting coming their way because of who they are.

Couple pages from the Fruit Kid webcomic that is still underdevelopment at the moment. Follows main character Ezra into a fantasy world of fruit beyond consuming where he is given a very tough responsibility outside his regular dishwasher/delivery boy job.

Short pencil and ink comic about a man falling in love with a more-or-less real shark to a point of trashing his own home to get closer to her.
