The Art of Ricardo Matute

A long overdue gift for my gf. I was experimenting with Splatoon species again; it's jellyfish this time. She's a comb jelly.

First up, Snack Bite! More info on cordd_comics on IG.

A commission piece I did for my GF. She wanted a human version of her grumpy cat Jack.

I like designing Splatoon-inspired species and characters. I was experimenting with sea slugs, and wanted to have males and females display a more extreme sexual dimorphism.

I drew this while streaming to a private party. I had no ideas so the de facto plan, as per the norm, is boobs hehehe

When you haven't drawn in two days, and you're trying to get back into rhythm

I wanted to draw a cute Animal Crossing icon for my gf, so I did

Beetle redesigned for another top secret project that totally has nothing to do with Splatoon.

My gf wanted some demon concepts for a thing I'm not supposed to talk about. None of these are final so it's probably fine to show em.

These are some sketches for a character I was trying to conceptualize. I wanted to play around with some hair i usually don't use.

(Send me some OCs to draw if you want.)

A hedgehog girl for a thing I want to do. Any similarities to another hedgehog girl, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.

"They say that Spring itself was at her beck and call." A portrait of a friend inspired by a cheesy line I thought of while drawing. Also was fun to finally try backgrounds for once. Go follow beardonuts8 on Instagram. She draws really cute art!

*This is a test of a drawing thing please ignore and have a good day*

I found an older drawing from my DA days, so I redrew that too. My bee boy became a bee man.

Top one is from 2015, when I was starting to learn Clip Studio Paint for the first time.

Lene, from one of the Fire Emblem games I never played!
