Hola Amigos, one of my favorite games to play as a kid was a latino board game called “Juego De Loteria”, it’s kinda like bingo, except that we played with pinto beans.  This game’s been around since my great grandma was a kid- so these illustrations are vintage vintage.  This download contains a zip file containing a jpeg document with nine different graphics.  These graphics are great for adding an antique/worldly element to your designs.  This file can be used in any image viewing/editing software.  You can use these vintage illustrations for personal works only!

Hello again friends, I usually don’t enjoy being injured, but when I do- my favorite way to do so is by skateboarding.  Nothing beats pulling off an ollie 360 flip nosegrind and landing on your ankle all wrong.  In honor of our injured heroes we’ve created a set of skateboarding vectors that would be great for any grunge design skateboard art, t-shirt, or poster- or whatever you’re working on.  There are six skate board art vectors in all, this free download zip file contains an eps file useful to anyone running adobe illustrator 8 or higher.

They may be kind of creepy looking, but these figurine vectors could be used for lots of different looks. If you’re fortunate enought to have Adobe Illustrator CS3, you could quickly Live Paint this couple for a more traditional looking graphic element.

Four figures in all, they are based on traditional painted dolls in the Native American Yuma tribe of the southwestern United States.

I just love ancient artifacts. So I was very pleased when a family member gave me the gift of a sculpture he made. It was one of a series of three sculptures, all slightly different… all excellent. The figure is a rendition of traditional Peruvian/Pre-Columbian artifacts. Hand crafted of clay and painted with gold accents, it has become a favorite item of home decor. It’s truly a museum quality piece from the hands of a very talented artisan hobbyist, who seeks no acknowledgment here for the work.

Happy day friends, today’s freebie is a collection of Classic Indian Henna design vectors.

The file is in eps format functional to any running adobe illustrator 8 through adobe illustrator cs3.
