Come Closer..
.. if you want me to smooch you.
Sketching a little bit. I love doing so. And this time, the idea of a couple in a cute moment came to my mind after listening to some cheesy songs. I coulnd't help it.
The thing is that I totally failed the girl, she was supposed to be brunette, but it ended up in a kind of Brown-Blonde. And she was supposed to have a much more pixie cut, but well, this was how it turned out.
The other day I was talking about knowing that something is going to end while you're still living it, and this making you feel sad, well, this time is about those moments, even though you know they'll probably end someday, you must enjoy them as much as you can. Even if it's just for some seconds, then for those second make it big! Live it!

The last night
I did a little piece of illustration.. I was playing with new brushes and I made up this text after doing the illustration (though I added more details after the text was written) Hope you like this little thing, I don't think it needs much more words, really.
I wanted to make a moment in which you're seeing/living something that's so beautiful but you know that soon it is gonna end, and though you're enjoying that moment the most, you can help but thinking about its ending.
It makes me think of this song by The Field Mice called When You Sleep

The Drums Study
So as I told you some days before, I needed to practice, and so I did. I was searching through photos when I come across this, and I decided that this was the one, so I started, and drawed and drawed, and I know this is just a rough sketch, but I'm proud of myself, after so many time, I still remember how to draw using references, and that felt alright. I want to keep practicing!
Just to tell you, things like this really help me, not at first, but as "days go by" (oh, yeah, I'm just so clever, jk) I realise the practice gave its fruits.
Today has been, actually, the very best day to post this 'cause something so nice just happened to me. I was walking into the kitchen when in the radio I heard "The Drums show in Primavera Sound" and then their music started playing, the live version, you know, with everything in it, and it was so fantastic! It felt like being there once again, seeing the Drums live (though I could not be in Primavera this year). I know I could go into the internet and just go through the live shows, but it's much more magic when it's a surprise!
Well, hope you like this little drawing, I'll keep on trying my best to improve.
Here's another little sketch I did, some Virginia Astley for you too

The Secrets I'll Keep for Myself
".. those are the things I wanna keep for myself. The secrets I'm not going to tell you."
This was mainly thought for tumblr, but I did like it enough to post it here. I don't know why, but so many times I feel some thoughts or some self secrets can't be trusted to anyone. At least not at first. Maybe in a way I feel that if I do, they become something real. Something that's there, and reality has always been so cruel, so I try my best to keep reality away from my secrets. Some of them.
I just hope you don't think that by "secrets" I mean something bad. Some times they are, not always. Secrets can be really good things, and a mix of good and bad might be the very best combination.

The Moonlight
This was not supposed to be named "The Moonlight" but "Claire de Lune" because of Tomita's song, which I'm listening right now. But it happened that when I though of Claire de Lune, I didn't want this, but something a little bit different. And I could not achieve it, not today, but I'll keep on working and trying untill the day I'll be able to post the drawing titled "Claire de Lune".
At any rate, I do like this one for what it is. It's something simple, but I like the idea.
Long time ago when we were studying poetry in school I was told that the moon was seen as a bad symbol. Whenever the moon appeared, something was going wrong. I did not understand that, I actually thought that the teacher would say "the moon means magic, something wonderful and mysterious" but no, it isn't that. So the thing is that I got it all wrong, 'cause I thought, and I still think, that the moon has so much magic with her and love, mystery, even adventures!
I don't know, it's obvious some bad things can happen at night (even the moon has a dark side), that's true, but there are so many other wonderful things happening at night. And so many wonderful landscapes that can be found!
Imagine a lake, at night, with the moon reflected on its pale waters, and there is someone there, looking at those waters as if they were the night sky, and the high trees are all around. Everything seems to be white and blue because of the night and the moonlight, and there is some mysterious magic going on. Why people forget about the magic? It's just so important! magic is all around us. I just wish they could see so.
My own Portafolio!
Hiya guys! I'm pretty exited about this, 'cause I've just finished setting my own Portafolio, and that's pretty cool, because I've never done something like that.. it's as if it was professional or something, though I know I'm not!
Well, anyway, there I post my drawings and illustrations, nothing new from what I post here, even something less I guess, but there is no text there and it's like having it all together. Hope you'll pass by and maybe like it.
(You'll see some signed with Puchi and some with Tona, but know that it's always me)
pd. The funny thing is that I like cats, but I prefer dogs... (not pretty good at drawing dogs though, sorry).

What Could I Say?
How close am I to losing you?
Me pretty much right now. Just felt like drawing the present scene to try and capture the feeling. When you're down for no reason at all.. maybe because it's past midnight and I'm here all alone, maybe it's because of the music, or things I've come through during this last hours.. I don't really know, the thing is that it feels like this.. as if you know something's going wrong but you don't know what could you do to make it better. Not only about yourself, but even when you know about someone who's sad, but don't know what to do, 'cause you feel as if any word you speak would be meaningless, and a hug would not be enough, and as if you, as a oneself, would not be enough.
Maybe I should just go to bed right now, but I don't really want to, though I know the more I stay here, the more bitter the feelings are gonna be.. there's something so powerful about night, and one of its big powers is bringing buried feelings and memories alive once again.
Today I've read something that went "You can love someone so much... but you can never love people as much as you can miss them." by John Green, I didn't feel like that for sure at first, but sometimes it seems that's so true.. ouch, this is going too far away. I'm sorry.
Goodnight. Things are gonna be better in dreams, for in dreams you can meet your secret wishes and longings.
pd. This was longer, but I just kept some things out, maybe because I still wanna keep some things to myself, no matter what.
