Summer feeling

"And bring the summer days, for my heart longs for the warm and quiet days."

This is a doodle I started out as a warm up drawing, but ended up caught in the details, and had to finish it, for myself. I know lately I haven't been posting much here, it is mostly because I don't have much time to draw (quality drawings), but if you want to follow up on my silly and not so silly doodles and drawings too, you can always check my tumblr where I post always fisrtly Tona001.

Hope you are having some wonderful spring days!

La Porta del Cel

La llum dels estius que semblaven allargar-se per sempre

La tímida espelma que balla amb la brisa del vespre

La olor de la fusta de pi i la sal a la pell

L'escuma del mar enredant-se entre els teus cabells

La porta del Cèl - Els Catarres 

"The light of the summers that seemed to last forever; The shy candle that dances with the evening breeze; The smell of pinewood and the salt on the skin; The sea scum tangling among your hair" tried to translate it.

Some weeks ago I went to see Els Catarres, and could love all their songs but the most beautiful, as we had to leave the show just before it ended, and this was the finale song. Today I was listening to it and couldn't help myself. Also, it was a promise I made, to make a drawing based on their songs. Lately all I do is draw cute couples.

The idea of a summer love is really sweet and heartbreaking when autumn comes, but with autumn maybe the relationship grows on and on. And those dreamy nights of summer might turn into hot chocolate afternoons. Hope you're having a great September. 

Feel free!

Don't give me a car.. really! hahaha I believe I have a thing for wind (as I've already said many times) and for speed. Since I was a child I've loved both. I don't know, I love its feeling so here it goes.

It's been a while since I've drawn a quick sketch like this one here, so I felt like drawing one, and this song (that I'm not gonna name) was playing and everything just happened.

Now this is a drawing to say bye to Summer but also, I believe I hadn't drawed a summer piece yet, this year. Well, anyway, hope you did enjoy yours and that don't hate September much, I know it's when work starts again, but it's also when so many good things start again, so don't be to curel to September. (It's one of my favourite months, and it's always been, though I tried not to say it much as a child, when everyone was just hating over it 'cause school had started again. I actually loved meeting old friends again.. yep)

Also, I love doing stuff and when things happen, and it always feels like a new start and a new chance to do things, September.

Enjoy yourself as much as you can! best wishes everyone! :)

New Summer '13 ID

Well hello! I made a new ID 'cause I was feeling like I needed a new one for various reasons. I actually did the last one so quickly, that it was full of mistakes and wushed lines which I disliked ever since the first moment. But here we are now, times goes on and so does life.

Hope that, in a way or another, you're enjoying your summer. I'm gonna be heading to Berlin tomorrow, and I'm really exited! First time ever! Everyone says I'll love it, so we'll see what I find out there.

Have a wonderful summer and hope you get to see some wonderful things and places, and that could be just around the corner, no need to travel to other countries for it. At least summer is perfect to rest under the shade of a tree and read a good book.

Sant Joan '13

 - We buried the pains singing songs,

and the bonfire flames turn the night into day -

Today it's "La revetlla de Sant Joan" which may translate to St.John's eve, but it's quite a big festivity here. Saying 'hi' to the summer, on the longest day and shortest night of the year. There are bonfires (there were a lot more years ago) and people gather around them and throw fireworks and you stay up as long as your body can take it, and dance and jump and laugh while the fire projects both, light and shadow around you.

It was one of my favourites day of the year back when I was a child, mainly 'cause I had a bonfire just by my house. And it was really big! I have few memories of those days, but they're all so bright! I loved it and I would love it nowadays too, but it's to hard to be next to a bonfire, unless you go to some specific places. Also, we eat. We always eat. It's called 'coca de Sant Joan' and it's pretty tasty, but I don't like it that much.

Anyway, I still pretty much like Sant Joan, and I still think it is trully beautiful, and this year we'll have bright full moon too (that if it stops raining and the clouds go away).

Hope you're welcoming the summer on you own way wherever you are! :)

Here's a link that might explain better Sant Joan down here. Images do explain it better! 

PB and Marceline!

Maybe by next summer we won't have changed our tune

Hey! I'm back and with so much time to spend on drawing stuff!! :)

Started this the other day and I wanted to do smth quick, but well, it didn't turn out to be that quick, I guess I gotta work on being faster at doing simple stuff or at least, at not complicating it when I decided I would keep it simple.

PB and Marceline from Adventure Time, because I love the show and I don't think I've posted many fanart online, which is a pitty 'cause I tend to do a lot! I love how those two change looks so much, so you can literally play and do whatever you want with them. 

I am gonna work on finishing stuff this month, drawings I started months ago, but due to exams and work I could never get to finish them, and others which I could only get sketched.

I'm also gonna make some sketchdumps of the drawings I did during this months but never got to post. Most of them only sketches and doodles I did on my sketchbook or the notes from class, but I love them anyway and want them to get somewhere, not to just grab dust in a notebook.

Hope you're enjoying this first days of June, I am surely doing so! Though it feels weird to have free time, I never know what to do with myself 'cause I keep thinking I cannot get anything new started because I'll have an exam to study or smth.. haha, my mind needs to get used at this.

Well, Vacations at last! And so many ideas on my mind, I mean it! so many!! Hope I can work them out somehow.

Hoping the summer is gonna be good!

They say so but..

..It's a game I don't wanna play.

I'm 50% done with my final exams, so I could do some quick sketches today, which I posted on Tumblr, but I'm kinda liking this one, so I'm posting it here too. Like the way it turned out to be, and the tetures, and colours! (I know you're not supposed to say so about your own piece)

Anyway, I'm 50% more happy today as I'm almost done with it, still a week to go, but we'll get there alright, I'm sure! And I've never been really exited about summer, but somehow this year I am, not about beach and not about the sun, but surely about finally being able to have time to start new projects (I wanna play with watercolours, yep!) and so many other things, but also, I'll have time to get to see my friends and stuff, and I trully miss them.

Oh! also, wanna wear nice t-shirts. I guess that's a big reason too.

Hope you're having an alright mid-week. Best wishes for the rest of it.

Summer Feeling

I was just having a little bit of fun when I did this. Inspired by a Vogue's photo.. not much to say about it.
I'm just having that kinda spring/summer feeling, and that's not even close! actually, we are going through the more freezing days ever! at least it seems so... but I don't know, sun is here... so... haha..

Uh! by the way, I love blonde afro... it just looks so good, doesn't it? :) I know this is something really simple... but who cares? I like it!
