London 2012 Summer Olympics

I never once thought that I would be so engrossed in the Olympic Games, never - this year was the very first time. Why? Well, maybe it had to do with the city wherin it was taking place, and also because I got the thrill out of watching canoeing! It inspired me a lot as you can see; I loved the way the competitors' hands held the oar, a pleasure to draw.

The Last of the works consigned to oblivion

The ultimate post of the series entitled 'Works consigned to oblivion'. A sheer sense of relief is soothing me as I become aware of my having finished all the illustrations I had under way since the beginning of 2011. From now on I can think about new projects, without having to bear in mind some tormenting forgotten works that are still unfinished. What a bliss to be rid of that burden - it prevents me from creating as I always have to catch up with past works. At the moment, I am making some sketches for a new illustration that will involve a wild horse, an old pram, and the town of Krakow (Poland). I am tingling with impatience to draw something new. Loads of ideas swarm over my head, but there is a latent frustration lurking behind me; I am no more on holiday, I also have to deal with my studies - though very interesting, but sucking up all my spare time outside the university.

Asking for the Moon is an illustration I would like to dedicate to a dear friend of mine, Ana Luisa Vale - thank you so very much for encouraging me to keep on drawing, and not to give up.

The sidebar's new dwellers

Here they are! It can be finally settled that the new blog's design is once and for all finished. A couple of months ago, the sidebar - where all the links are displayed - had changed its clothes; today, I would like you to meet the new dwellers. The 'twitter bird' button and the 'copyright bird-eater' button have been changed, and I like them better this way!

Courtship Display

'Courtship Display' is definitely the illustration I spent the most of my time with - I thought I would never finish it! Very often did I hate myself for drawing so many details. Actually, I will not assert my being patient and meticulous when it comes to make something; I would love to be that kind of person as I am very fond of minutely detailed artworks in general. I feel relieved, I am so glad I have finished it. This time, I have decided to post the sketch, the drawing before being painted in, and the final picture of 'Courship Display'. Why, it is because in my opinion they are three separate works, each one being interesting to gaze at.
