After Dark


From Haruki Murakami.

Just finished reading it last week. Beautiful. Surreal....

Walking to the School...

Drawing Week


This week was the drawing week at the course I am. We practiced different techniques with pencils, acrylics and charcoal. It was great, and I discovered new things and new likings with my drawings with the experiments we made. Next week we'll be going to a museum on monday and to the library on tuesday to research for our project to design and make a headdress. It sounds like fun... My schedule for the course:

Profile Number 4


Today was my first day at school.

They showed us some sketchbooks from past students, and they make you feel so tiny, but at the same time, so inspired! They make you marvel about art. I keep thinking everyone is an artist. I want to keep on drawing, and if possible, to be part of the dreams of someone else. If my drawings inspire that, then I feel I will have accomplish one of the goals in my life.

I miss my family and my friends so much....

Profile face number 4. Since I don't have internet but just when I come to the library and nervousness didn't let me sleep for some days, I almost finish this work for a past DAC Challenge at Deviantart.
