Meet Felipe Novoa, a professional illustrator, graphic designer and photographer based in Bogotá, Columbia. His singular mix of urban art, lowbrow style, mischief, humor and eye-popping colors has made him popular not only with fans of his illustrations, stickers, pins and T-shirts, but as a commercial artist.

His work has appeared on everything from luggage and clothing to a recent, very cool ad campaign for Columbian beer, Cervesa Poker. He’s also been a featured artist in Columbian art magazines, Bacanika and Cartel Urbano and been published in two books by UK-based Stickerbomb (UK).
Below Felipe Novoa tell us more about his work, particularly his erotic art, which is what really caught our eye.

When and why did you become an illustrator?
Everything has been a process. When I was a child, I loved to draw my favorite TV characters and I also drew the things that I saw around me. After a while I interested in graffiti and urban art, at that point I created my monkey brand, and officially became an illustrator while studying graphic design at university.

What is your process? Do you draw by hand on paper first or go straight to your computer?
At the beginning I drew everything by hand, then I traced that on tracing paper, scanned and applied the color digitally. I was saving money for a while and 3 years ago I was able to buy an iPad and now I do the whole process on it. I use two programs, Medibang Paint and Procreate.
