"Carlos Huante's work is a grand play of passion, his forms are taut with agonies and ecstasies, his images bite like chisel and hammer. A monstrously beautiful body of work."

Iain McCaig, concept artist
Terminator 2, Star Wars-Episodes I, II and III

Carlos Huante was born in East L.A. in 1965. Besides chilaquiles and Yerba Buena (mint tea), Carlos grew up on stop-motion monster movies. Since that time he has pursued his passion for the arts by creating some of the most original monsters and characters, for both film and animation, ever seen.

Monstruo is a collection of Huante’s personal, original work featuring a wide range of monster and character designs, from simple pencil sketches that magically capture the gesture of his subject, to full-color digital and traditional media paintings.
