Octavio -- I'm a one of your newer fans, having lived under a rock for a few years now. But wow, what a fresh and sorely welcome breath of creative air you are. All the verve and life in the work you produce is infectious, and musical and full of soul.
That's coming from a guy who grew up in gospel churches; in south central LA, in my own sort of favela life -- then got into cal arts and learned to animate from Tony Fucile & Glen Keane and Mike Ngyun!!
Many mutual friends have turned me on to you as good folks and real talent. I do many projects with Maverix over the years.

So, I just thought it was time to tell you Your vision feels very rare in the field of US animation and comics. Thank you very much for it. Gracias. Can't wait for "Ciudad"=)
Stay inspired my friend!
