Dreams are never dreams

..They are reality

Self portrait, charcoal. 57 x 76 cm, biggest I've ever done (thus the picture, no scanner that big available)
2nd of the projects rejected, there was not enough transformation.

My Madrid

I miss it.

Battle rage

My 2nd art project, seminude model got rejected by my profs for being "too perfect it looks like a photography" and "background not relating to the figure". Apparently that was not the goal, so I had to do a new one..much worse, but which they preferred.
As Manu would say, go figure...

Anyhow, here he is, rejected and all, still in all hisglory.
(this was quite big, 65 x 45 cm, thus the picture, no scanner this big..)
Charcoal. took 2 days to complete.

For the days

Et parce que c'est pour toi que je continue en apprendre le français.

Fencer

It was time for a drawing..
I did this in about 2 hours, for a webpage project my brother is doing.
Mostly 8B, 4B pencils. (oh, I took a picture, was too big for a scanner. Thus, bad quality.)

Niagara Falls

So we went to Niagara Falls, and it was wonderful. We got soaked at the boat and after we had lunch at Hard Rock, ate chocolate at Hershey's and had coffee at Starbucks. Nothing more to be asked for.

As September goes by

Been too busy..I haven't finished any art yet. Not like I have a scanner anyway..
Here are more pics.

View from my apartment's balcony at dusk.
Morning coffee and The New York Times
One of the buildings from my beautiful campus. I take Italian classes there.
Well, they were cute and I picked them..
The main building from the campus, I take French there.. The MacIntosh Art Gallery. Hopefully I may get a job there. I dislike the name though.. (hint hint Gabe)

Oh Spirit Tree just released their album and I'm overjoyed. The acoustic version of "All this" is awesome in every way.

And the news.. I got interviewed as an artist by some people from the Physics faculty, part of a project they had to do, no idea what it had to with art though and interviews...strange. oh well, I appear in a very short video, I'm gonna get famous.

The day before

Sorry for the lack of updates, I'm still settling down and haven't had time to draw anything.
What I do have though, are pictures.

Happy birthday to my sister in law.
:)

I take classes here.

some museum at Toronto.

Sweet home

Well.. I do miss home.
This is an out of focus oil painting of the front of my house back in Spain.

Walked away

I remember going back to the place we used to lay
But I keep losing track
And now the days they all turn black
And our dreams all start to fade
But there's no turning back..

Now I'm slowly, giving up
As the world keeps losing faith
And you still turn your back
Now the path I follow takes a tool on me, on you
But there's no turning back

Cause the world keeps turning (why do you tell me you care if you're not gonna stay?)
And my heart's still burning (why do you tell me you care?)

What if I change the world
If I lead the way
What if I be the one who takes the blame
What if I can't go on without you
What if I graduate
What if I don't....

What if I lead the way
What if I graduate
What if I change the world
Would you still remember me? ....

(What if. Simple Plan)

Derwent drawing pencils and charcoal. I did this picture at the end of summer 2007, I just never felt like posting it....

Sunday morning feels so good

mmmm...
Traditional spanish breakfast Chocolate con churros;
deep fried dough with hot thick chocolate, possibly my favorite food, and I'm gonna miss iiiit....

Bonjour, c'est le même endroit et tu me manques..
