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! :)

Cats study

I did this a while ago on my sketchbook, as I'm trying to get better at drawing fluffy cats but also 'cause I'm trying to write a picture book for a contest, and it must be about cats.
Posting it now 'cause someone requested to see more of my cats (as I did post some a while ago on face and tumblr) and so, here they are.

Brush pen and a silver one I've got since I was 6 or 7 that I never though I would use again. There are Two pencils ones and I believe I used a black pen for some details.

Winter - Spring '13 Sketchdump. Part 6

You can spot a Merida with her hair pulled back with a tiny braid. And then just some pencil doodles. (hair was growing on!)

And here it starts, you'll see some guys with moustaches and beards and things, but I just had come home from seeing Ana Karenina and also fell in love again with Phobs drawings, and then this happened. 

This one on the right is supposed to be North, though.

And yet some more. The writer was a beautiful man I made up, but I remember searching for someone wearing that same hair style and the glasses and everything and couldn't find it. But then another say I suddently happened across the photo of a writer (can't remember the name and can't find the photo again) and it wa him! I showed the picture to my sister and she agreed it was. So here you go, my writer existed once.

Also, young North on the bottom right.

And here you go, some Jack Frost for u all, and Jonny Pierce from The Drums! 

Great Warrior! I love the comic by Madéleine Flores and you should really check it out, (here)

Some other random stuff and Ella from Ella enchanted (not the movie but the book! one of my favourite books when I was a child/teen).

And here we are. I'll try and do some more soon, but first I wanna go through old drawings that I never did finish.

Winter - Spring '13 Sketchdump. Part 5

Here you can see Amy from The Angels Take Manhattan and Tora all jewelled for some social event, I guess. Well, she's a queen after all! (also, popcorn coat!)

More Toras and a kind of Pikachu, I guess?

And well, you can guess which books I had started and everything that goes with them. I'm still not over Pitch sad story, nor any of the other main character's sad story, really..

Some more RoTG/Guardians of Childhood stuff and some sad stuff too. (Yes, it still hurts, and it's about a whole different thing than RoTG)

Feeling like drawing cute bears and things..maybe. (Aladdin!!)

Some more sketches, I'll post Part 6 in a moment! I was going far with RoTG and The Guardians Of Childhood by this dates.. (If you haven't yet spotted it, this sketch dump is posted chronologically).

Some more on the way!

Clair de Lune

"All of us under its spell. We know that it's probably magic."
- The Rainbow Connection.

Been working on it this last days, and I think I can happily say that after one year, I've done an illustration that can go under the title Clair de Lune, or what I had in my mind for it (listening to Isao Tomita's version). 

On the other hand, this one has also been inspired by Cascading Slopes, I would like to say by the album, but it's not out yet and due to not being able to go to the shows on NY, I've only got a glimpse of its music. But anyway, I'm already in love with it and it already made me dream of out of this world places, as well as some magical spots like this one up here. 

In a way, I'm happy that it didn't actually turn out the way I sketched it last spring (yeah, been thinking about it for quite a while, sincerely. Wanted it to look like an album's cover art, though I might have failed in that one thing) but this lasts weeks I decided to finally work on it. It was supposed to be at sunset, first, then at dawn, but I just couldn't resist the magic of the forest glowing in the night.

I never thought I love this much drawing backgrounds, forests and trees, but I love it. I love what you can do, I love how nature works, I love how much magic can be found out there! And it really calms me down, it makes me happier every time. 

Somewhere out there I read: "Creative Process: 1) This is going to be awesome 2) This is hard 3) This is terrible 4) I'm terrible 5) Hey, not bad 6) That was awesome", I just thought it was so true, and so close to how I felt during the creation of this piece. So, after some moments of desperation and some others of big joy doing it, and after so many wonderful songs, here it is! Hope you like it! 

Also, here is Clair de Lune from Fantasia, it was such a great help when I was stucked with this drawing!

ps. I'd like to ask you to listen to Clair de Lune (by Isao Tomita) with the drawing, just a little bit! I've got this feeling that it does add much more to it.

Winter - Spring '13 Sketchdump. Part 4

Did I draw a little Sam Winchester?

Also, here are some sketches I did for a drawing that I never got to post. The girl with the cat on the ruins.. I hope I'll finish it eventually and post it!

Doodling is fun..

..but doodling can also be heartbreaking.

Hey! I had not forgotten about the blog nor that I still have some sketchbook pages to post! I am sorry it took this long, but I wasn't in a mood for doing it, and also, I haven't been drawing anything that I feel is worth posting here, so I'm sorry for the late update.

Here you have it, 5 more pages of doodles and drawings I did during the last spring! You can also see a growing love for some TV series.. Also people I think I shouldn't have drawed, but they will never know so.. everything's alright.

Hope you like them! And I hope to get some more stuff done so I can get to post it soon enough!

A bright smile and flowers in your hair

"Then we grew a bit and romanticized the time I saw flowers in your hair" 

I wasn't having the best of days, mostly because summer sun and hot tires me a lot lately, and I become unable to do much, so I decided I would draw, 'cause that always helps, and drawing people with brights smiles always makes me happy, I was also trying 'The Lumineers' for no reason at all, I had just never given them a chance, and I am pretty much liking them, their songs put me in a good mood and that's all I needed today!

I wish people smiled much more, when they felt like doing so, and not hide under 'coolness' how amazing they really are. It's not like you should always be smiling if you don't feel like doing so, but I believe if you want to and feel like doing it, you should smile, because that and some good laugh are some of the best things I can think of right now.

I've been reading this morning and it was mentioned someone who barely smiles but when they did it, it was a bright one, the type of sincere smiling childs give, and I kept thinking about it. I believe that as you grow old you realise the world that's around you, how it is not as little as you thought it was, and how many trouble there is, and even though that trouble exists, some people tend to forget the things that made them smile before. They are little and simple, but much more valuable than the biggest treasure (even more than Erebor's!!). And they still exist. They're still there waiting for you to smile for them.

What I mean is that it seems much more "acceptable" to say how much you hate or dislike something than it is to say how much you love a thing. There's nothing wrong about being enthusiast about something, about liking it, enjoying it and saying how much you  love it. So please don't be mean when someone says they like one thing and laugh at them for liking it that much. 

It's wonderful to love!
