There's an edge to Alé Mercado's illustrations. His work conveys emotion through gritty texture, aggressive, bold line-work and uncluttered, well-organized page structures. Some of his work is reminiscent of Edvard Munch and the Expressionist prints of Kirchner and Pechstein.
Alé is also no stranger to typography. In some of his work he incorporates different typefaces that compliment his illustrations nicely. And Alé uses color sparingly, which is another element that adds to the atmosphere and intensity of his work.
Alé's Facebook page displays a good amount of his designs and illustrations. He also incorporated an Events tab which offers a list of upcoming events.
