It started...

Good morning...

Shattered Glass

Shattered glass is able to let light shine through in a much more beautiful way...

Dedicated to Kathy. I'm sorry, after scanning and analyzing it I realized it actually doesn't look that much like you..but I hope you like it. :) xx
Charcoal.

Metro de Madrid...Vuela

2nd painting project. Mixed media; acrylic painting and glued photographs.
90x90cm (big!)
This is..a personal painting and has tangled meanings.
But it's all about Madrid, some of my favorite places merging all into one unique space. And the metro, because Madrid's metro flies... you can be everyone at once.

I see you

He smirks

He stares
He thinks

He laughs

He smiles

Peut être

Can you imagine how life would have been if it had been..different. just change one thing and it would have all completely changed. Maybe you would be here, maybe not, maybe I wouldn't be here, maybe we'd have something else.. Maybe you can actually save people, change destiny, maybe I could have..maybe I couldn't.
who knows.
maybe you?
tu sais..que je me demande chaque jour, pour quoi et s'il peut être. Et je ne sais pas, et je ne sais rien, et tu ne peux pas répondre-moi, même si je sais que tu veux.. que tu veux me parler, que je veux toi de me parler, et que je pleure... et que je souhaite que j'aurai pu sauver-toi... et, peut être que cette vie n'est pas qu'un rêve..

Talbot

Here it is, the Talbot College building, faculty of music.
Acrylic painting done with a palette knife on a 30 x 30 cm masonite board. Disclaimer: the building is not pink, that was my choice. :)

Savin' me....

And say if it's worth saving me..

It is the 16th Curtis

October blowing by

So here is the result of a peaceful long weekend.. It's nice walking through these colorful forests and parks.. Fall is beautiful over here.
Today was a busy day.. but I ate apple pie! and Dre called, so sweet.
I just finished studying for my art history exam tomorrow.. about the Greeks and their sculpture.. it's very easy, as Dre says: "they just were all naked" :)






It's majestic.



View from my 7th floor apartment. That's the top of the Middlesex College building, faculty of Mathematics and where art history lectures take place.
The shortcut through the forest to get to the campus.
The Thames river in London.

I caught it. These creatures are planning to take over the town I tell you.. the squirrel population doubles the human population here.

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.
