BUEN DIA, BUENA GENTE.

I'M RENE, STANDING HERE ABOUT THREE YEARS AGO
IN FRONT OF MY CORNER STORE DECIDING THAT THERE'S NO BETTER TIME LIKE A PANDEMIC TO REEVALUATE MY LIFE CHOICES AND START
EARNING A LIVING BY DRAWING STUFF.

A few days later, Natalie, my wife and creative collaborator, helped me distill my approach and
came up with a name for the studio:

YUMA (what cubans on the island call the states
"se fue pa' la yuma")

YORK (the last name of the city I call home).

WORK:
Inspired by our surroundings and the latino culture
we've been raised with. Vibrant colors, organic
shapes and imperfect lines all brought together
to create images that make you happy.

GOALS:
Solve your illustration and design needs and foster a positive experience throughout our collaboration.
We want to make you feel like a neighbor,
not just a client.

LOCATION AND TOOLS:
Washington Heights home studio and primarily
digital tools (ipad, adobe suite, etc), but we're not
afraid to get our hands dirty with ink, posca pens,
acrylic paint, and polymer clays.
