Some stuff

Early morning 

 I know it's been a while, sorry, i had no time to post anything... but finally here it is, what i've been doing this days...  some of them were done while listening to a lovely melody..

 ..I know, i know, i think i've drawn this scene so many times.. i guess i'm just obsessed with hair blowing in the wind..

and here i had been listening and watching too much Ghibli...

Yep!

and yeah.. Disney style, it's just that lately i've been trying some amazing brushes (in Photoshop) by an amazing artist i love, and they just work the perfect way.. i feel as if i'm drawing with a pencil or something and it just cames out so naturally... :)

I've just started my Easter Week so i hope i'll go on drawing,

take care.

The kid and his synth

"The RS-09 was banished to a closet and forgotten about for a decade until a twelve year old me happened upon it."

This is part of the lovely text that made me wanna draw this little thing up here. My imagination just started to draw this on my mind (as it always does) while I was reading.. I just thought that I should try and do it, not just imagine it.. and so, I tried.. 

don't misundestand me, I love it. I wasted on it hours and hours, and I just enjoyed every minute, but it's just that it was not really what I had in mind, but maybe that's the point with it, that you are not gonna get exactly what you had in mind, and sometimes it's gonna be better, sometimes it's gonna be worst, but mostly you won't know what was better, what you had in mind, or what you've done.

But going back to the point, this drawing is about a memory, a good one.. maybe it touch me so bad because I really like when memories get mixed up with dreams, and you find yourself unable to know what was real, and what was not, and so, it becomes a lovely memory. You remember it the way you wanna remember it, not just what was going on, but also the senses, the smell, the sound, the light, that combination that makes a memory the way it is for you, and so, it's not like that for anybody else. Isn't it nice? Something that is just for you and for no one else?

Here I leave you a close up of the kid and the synthesizer (a Roland RS-09).

as I've said, I've spent on this one a little bit much more than usual.. so about 2 or 3 days (if I sum up the hours) but I've enjoyed my best with it.. and it made me wanna draw more and more. 

And thanks to Mild Slopes for the lovely text and for the advice (it was really helpful).

It is a lovely night and time for a little rest. Hope you like it.

beneath the shade of a tree

there's where I'll wait and dream of you.

And then you came..

..and sat by my side.


About 3 years ago or something like that,  I did this from a memory I had, but was done in pencil and it was just a sketch (and it looked awful), so I just keept it somewhere hidden from everyone elses eyes, and I kept the memory with me, 'till the day I'd be able to draw it the way I wanted to. And so, here it goes. 
It's just that sweet moment when you need someone by your side, and that one does so, no words needed. I remeber you telling me I would get cross-eyed because of my fringe. You were such a weird friend, but I loved you for that. I miss those days a little bit.


What I love most about this one is that I had already forgotten about it 'till I heard a song, and I don't know how, it just came back like a flash to my mind.  Some time ago I made a plan in which I would draw some memories I had (the way I rember them). But it never turned out, maybe this drawing is the first step.
Well, anyway, I hope you like it, I guess Jens Lekman songs put a lot of feeling into it.


Ha! it's my third post this week, I'm proud of my self, (though I guess I shouldn't just for that) See ya.

Gonna miss you

I know this has nothing to do with drawings, but this is a goodbye for a good friend that was with me every week. I waited for Visiomento by The Drums (http://thedrums.com/ ) every Tuesday like a fool. Sometimes it cheered up my day, others left me so confused, and sometimes it just fitted the feeling of the day. I'll miss it, but I don't see anything wrong in ending it now. Sometimes I suppose it feels that's the time to do something, and I guess this is what has happened here.

The other thing I wanted to say about this is how much I like how this last one has been made, I mean, it feels so right. I know there are lots of different ways when you have to end something, but for me, it seems just perfect to do it remembering what has gone before, kind of showing up memories of what has happened, and remembeing, just to say a finale goodbye.  I love when things (films, books, videos, series, etc.) end this way, it just touches me so badly that many times I can't hold my tears.
I hope you know what I'm talking about, 'cause I feel I'm messing around with so many words.. just wanted to say thanks to The Drums for bringing Visiomento to life. It's been a good, good friend this months.

Bye pal.

I guess this is wrong

... but I'll post it anyway. I dislike this one.. no feeling, but I guess that 'cause I've been overexposed to all that  "style blogs" and as long as it felt right at the start... it became feeling boring at a time, so I just did this and that's all.

Yesterday I spent my afternoon trying to draw two new ideas I had, and actually I love them, and I wish I was able to draw them the way I want to, I'll keep tryng during the week. 

So this is just a sketch about what was going on my mind all afternoon, couldn't help but making new looks in my mind. I thought about so many new looks, but as fast as they came to my mind, they went away.
Someone once told me that my brain went faster than my body did, so at the end I was unable to do anything. I've been thinking about this lately, maybe it's true, maybe I think about so many things at a time that I end up doing nothing, or maybe is just that I'm such a loser that I never get to do a thing.

Actually, i know there's one way to go through this, but I've never been able to apply it to myself, and it goes like this: When you feel you are thinking about so many things you have to do, and you don't know where to start, 'cause it seems such a lot of work and there's no starting point, take it easy, start doing just one thing, and keep on. And then, without even realising it, you'll have ended. 

I just hope one day I'll be able to do so. :)

That is all  for now. See ya.

Just before the kiss..

I believe a strange spring feeling has invaded me... This is just a cute couple in one of those sweet moments that, though they won't last much, when they do, they seem to be perfect.  Based on a memory I had of a couple in a magazine. I really don't remember its name neither the couple's name... actually, the only thing I remember is the girl's haircut.

Well, anyway, hope you like this one, I especially love the girl's expression, the guy... well I don't really like how it ended because he has no expression at all! but I'll keep on trying to improve my boys.

Do you think I should try to colour it?
