Here is something on the board at Fian Arroyo Illustration...right now. Donating my illustration services to fight cancer (my mother died from it...so its personal) to Grind For Life an organization that raises money through skateboarding events and an online shop to help people with cancer...great organization. This is a sketch in progress for a skateboard deck. Buy a deck and help kick cancers ass!!!!
I'll post final art when it is completed.

Just got back last week from Toyfair in NYC. I attended as a guest of MindtwisterUSA to help promote and sign autographs, for the games I did artwork for last year, Skateboard Madness and Fandooble. It was an amazing time, hanging with the Mindtwister family and checking out all the new products coming out this year. Got to pitch some ideas for a new product line and got a great response. So great, that i will be starting on that real soon partnering up with Jesse DenHerder Design. The only bummer was that I caught a chest cold while up there and am still trying to shake it...UGH!
Below is a pic of me at Toyfair next to an Incredible Hulk made out of Legos....I think I could take him on. Just one out of a ton of really cool things to check out at Toyfair.
Just tweaked the site with some font changes and switched the slideshow on the home page to images in my character design and mascots portfolio. I also added some images to the portfolios. Lemmewhatyathink!
Working on art for a logo for a new fishing tackle company coming out soon. Still trying to figure out direction with that one to see what kind of killer image can be incorporated into the logo. Also, I am starting on a new children's book about a surfing platypus, its going to be super fun to do!!!
I'll keep ya posted on both projects as well as posting art from recent projects that are still waiting to get clearance for from my clients. One is a series of character designs for children's vitamins and the other are illustrations for a supercross motocross board game, can't wait to post them.
Heres the final illustration for my holiday ecard I sent out to my clients and potential clients for www.fian.com.It was a remake of a scratchboard illustration I had done 20 years ago for a holiday card of mine. I really enjoyed bringing it back to life in a different style and adding some modern touches by putting in an ipad and Facebook. The original had the reindeer holding up a centerfold from Play Deer magazine instead of the ipad. If I can only find the original illustration or printed card and post it.
