Patternized

It's about two years that I've started swing dancing. Entering this community have been a really exciting, I've meet thousands funny people, discovered a new way of listening and interacting with music and with my body... an A++ experience.

After many delays and abandoned sketches I've finally made a pattern with the portraits of some of the people that have started this "adventure" with me..!

I miss me.

Granma is very ill, home is a mess, my parents are getting even more crazy than usual and all the people in this little seaside village are making me depressed (but that's the only really normal thing). Coming back home is a real pleasure (like it was to be expected). While studying my useless anthropology books (I wonder if I am still in a design class) I've found time to re-style and finish this drawing. It's a homage to some not-very-old happy times. Enjoy it for me, because at this moment I feel a bit like Eleanor Rigby and her f**** jar.

Sexy like a paper cut

When I'm completely bored in my Sundays afternoon I sometimes make things like this.

I'm trying to study new kinds of photoshop brushes and colors matches. I want to find a new way of drawing edges... the black line always looks too "cartoon"...

Wow... I noticed right now that's the first post of the new year! I'll try to make a self portrait next January too and look if there are changement on my style!

Autopromotion?

That's the picture I drew for the first project of my illustration class. The task was to make a self portrait who tells a particular aspect of our personality. Are you able to guess mine? Sadly I think not... although I've correct this image 4 times...

Reminescenze

Wow è cambiata l'interfaccia di blogger... meglio così, quella vecchia aveva uno stile proprio vetusto.
Mentre lavoravo alle nuove tavole ho ripescato per caso questo schizzo fatto al mare.
Non dico che nostalgia perché l'università qui in canada mi concede un'abbonamento gratuito alla piscina e in questi ultimi giorni il sole non manca affatto... posso sedermi sul patio della casa e fare la vecchia che guarda i passanti. Che relax.

Dottori in disoccupazione

Questa volta posso giustificare l'aver ignorato a lungo il blog con il fatto di essermi laureata del frattempo, effettivamente sto iniziando a prenderci gusto a trovare ogni volta una nuova scusa.

Oltre al disegno finale ho messo una sintesi del mio metodo di lavoro, anche questo disegno come quello dello scorso post è fatto direttamente in digitale senza schizzo a mano, non perché sia un metodo che io prediliga... ma non avendo scanner a casa... sarebbe abbastanza inutile fare disegni a matita: sigh!
