Tora!


Tora! Tora! Tora! Tora! 

Well, I think I've never talked about Tora here, but she's my beloved character. Made her few years ago, trying to write all the story, but I must accept I'm not good at that. It has been so long since I last draw her, and I was already missing her. 

She's the new queen of "Rubturbs" where, as you can see, red is the main colour. And yep, they are all from a land with 4 different countries, and each one has a different colour. So Rubturb's colour is the red one, and the royal family has red hair and red eyes too. They are desert people, and I love to imagine her wearing baggy clothes, and, though you cannot see it, going barefoot.

"When you first saw her you could not take your eyes off. Her red hair sparkled through sunset, as if it was fire itself. Her clothes, dancing with the wind, seemed to be part of that fire too, and as she approached she always looked in your eyes with her deep red ones. And then, that was it. You were enchanted."

And They Will Fall


...To Where You Dream.


Just wanted to draw that moment when you're reading a book you love and you start crying because of what's happening to the characters in it. You feel the way they feel, you get to live their story.. and that's something I love about books, how much you can get into that story and make it yours.

Trying to find a book to drive me away again.. not lucky. Anyway, in a few weeks I'm gonna start something I'm very exited about. I think it's gonna be something wonderful! which is not an easy thing to say.

Still so many work to do, but it seems that step by step it loses weight, so soon I'll be able to draw whenever I want to, and man, that is really nice. Exited about that too.

A Fool


.. I can't help being one. Sorry.



New ID. I just started drawing and ended up with this.

Why is it so easy to draw oneself? maybe it's 'cause we see ourselves all the time in mirrors and stuff.

little adventure at night


"The stars were watching that little girl, running, jumping, playing and hiding under the moon light, and their shine was brighter than ever before when they smiled."

If you listen to an imperfect and simple song, done by a teen trying to show all the love that is in the heart and filled with early dreams, you'll get the feeling, I hope.

Nothing really big, just wanting to draw one of those childish adventures moment. I loved them!

The Dark Side


I've been thinking about it lately, and the fact is that I believe we all have both, a bright and a dark side. You know?  But sometimes I just walk my steps backwards before posting something 'cause I'm afraid someone will just ask, "are u alright?" "what the hell is going on with you?" and I'm just like "I don't know, nothing's wrong really, but at the same time, everything is wrong, you know?"  it's not that something depressing has happened, it's just that the dark side is showing up. 

But you know? so many people are afraid of that darker side of themselves and of the ones they are surrounded by. Not that they are aware of it, but it's just as if they would not like to accept it. I don't know, I just feel that if you're sincere about youself, you'll cry as much as you'll laugh, 'cause if you don't have reasons for crying, you'll never have reasons for smiling.. I feel that if you don't have that dark side, you'll never have a bright one. The brighter you are, the darker you are, like when you add contrast to a black and white photo, and the black becomes darker and the white, brighter.


That's it. That's maybe the reason so many people cries at night, alone in the dark, afraid of what the ones you love will say about it. And there's no big reason for doing so, you just do it 'cause you feel like crying, as well as someday in the morning you'll smile just for the sake of it, 'cause you want to. But isn't it a beautiful way to go about things? To feel, to feel everything that surrounds you, as if every moment was important, 'cause if not time just rushes by..

Good night. Cry or Laugh tonight, but do what you feel like doing, and keep it pure.




I said Hi in the garden


Just one little thing. A moment. Inspired by a lovely bird that was standing on a flowerpot while rain was pouring down. I was listening to The March Of Time.. so maybe it took part in the inspiration thing too. Well, I'm pretty sure it did.

Lately I've had a growing love for Pauline Baynes and E.H. Shepard drawings, I love the way they're so simple but so complex too.. and the way they draw those small scenes filled with magic and lots of feelings. So I'm trying to add a moment, a kind of a backround to my drawings..

Hope you like this little sketch..

See ya soon. (I'll go back to colours soon)

Sing it to me


sing it to me


Wouldn't it be nice to say "I've Finally Found You"?... and what about being said so? I'll keep hoping.

(Just something random.. enjoyed drawing the clothes.)
