Clase de natación * Swimming lessons
Hooolaaa!
Madre mia! a estas alturas de las rebajas y todavia con el christma navideño en el blog!! Por qué el tiempo es tan poco? Bueno, yo siempre quiero pensar que llegará un momento en el que tenga mas (tiempo, digo).. optimismo nato, jeje.
Y estaba yo en la piscina uno de aquellos dias en los que si que tuve un rato para hacerme unos largos (aunque fueran pocos) y cuando saqué la cabeza, alli estaban ellas, todas del mismo cole, en la clase de natación del mediodia, escuchando con esa admiracion que uno tiene de pequeño por su monitor del deporte que mas le gusta. Pues eso, ahi estan.
Besos
Hellloooooo!! Oh my goodness, almost finishing the Sales season and I still have the christmas card in the blog!! Why time is so short!! I want to think that sometime in the near future I will have more (time, I mean). So, I was in the swimming pool one day, when I got a bit of that time I usually lack of, and when I stuck my head out of the water there they where, all from the same school, in their early afternoon swimming lesson, listening to their teacher from the water with that admiration you feel only when you are young. So there they are. Love
MERRY CHRISTMAS * FELIZ NAVIDAD
I wish you all a very very Merry Christmas!! (including yesterday, today and the next 10 days, here we celebrate the Three Wise men or Twelfth Night) and a wonderful brand new 2010!!! Tell your wishes to the xmas chickenguin ;D. Love!
The Wall y otros ladrillos * The wall and other bricks
Hola! Espero que sigais todos bien!
Unos dibujetes del skbook hoy. Mira que coincidencia que hago un apuntillo en el parque de Berlin y resulta que este año se cumplen 20 años de la caída del muro, la verdad es que ni me habia dado cuenta cuando hice el dibujo, pero me enteré luego, asi que aqui lo pongo. Los tres cachos de pedrusco del medio de la fuente son tres cachos del muro... creo que no son de los mas vistosos, pero son los que nos tocaron, pues nada... ahi estan.
Los otros son una vista desde mi casa y una vista de Bocairent (un pueblo de Valencia que merece la pena ir a ver :). Por eliminación se deduce que la vista desde mi casa no es muy interesante... jeje.
Ah, pongo aqui el link del showreel de Autodesk, "The best of the best 2009", porque sale un poco del anuncio de Repsol y son nuestros dibujos y me hace ilusión.
Bsos
Hello! I hope you are all doing good!
Some scribbles today from the skbook. I did a little sketch in the Berlin Park (near my house in Madrid) and then I learn that this year is the 20th anniversary of the fall of the wall, so here I post the scribbles. The three stones in the middle of the fountain are actually three blocks from the wall (I think we got some of the dull ones)
The other drawings are a view from my house and a view of Bocairent, a nice village in Valencia worth to visit (yes, the view from my house is the uninteresting one... ¬¬
Ah! and I add down here the link to Autodesk's "Best of the best 2009" showreel because it features a bit of the Repsol commercial with our drawings in it...
Love

I've been reading...
Hola!
Pues aunque he estado ese tiempo sin pasarme por aqui, si que he podido leer algo. Como me mola poner lo que estoy leyendo en la columna de la derecha y se me ha pasao el arroz por mucho, pues voy a reunirlo todo junto y os posteo un collage-ilustracion (he pegado las portadas originales que siempre queda mas "autentico", jeje).. Si estais dudando que leer, ahí hay alguna idea ...
(esto es lo que a mi me parecen, que no tiene nada que ver con lo que son. Tampoco son los que mas me gustan, ni me gustan todos, solo son los mas recientes):
* The road de Cormac McCarthy: crudo, gris y preocupante... con un final un poco apresurado o ... ¿? pero se lee de una tacada, (si tienes tiempo... yo tardé mas porque no tengo, :b)
* El mundo de Juan Jose Millás: autobiografia, typical madrileñish, aunque podria ser cualquier sitio de España en esos años.
* The death of Bunny Munro de Nick Cave, la historia esta bien, y muy bien escrita, se nota que se hace sus propias letras y todo eso, jeje, eso si, te tienen que gustar las novelas con mucho sexo.. (a mi me pillo desprevenida, me aburrió un poco, encima por el titulo ya sabes como acaba! mmmñññ ) Perfecto para troncos, creo.
* Man in the dark de Paul Auster, tipico suyo, si lo has leido antes. Esta bien, muy de nuestro tiempo.
* The white tiger de Aravind Adiga. Situado en la India, escrito en forma de e-mail. oscuro, original y enganchoso.
* The stars' tennis balls de Stephen Fry... Lo maaas chungo, asustoso y oscuro que he leido desde American Psycho (y de eso hace años). madremiamadremia! no puedes parar hasta que lo acabas.
* Moab is my washpot de Stephen Fry tambien... autobiografía, no me enganchó tanto como los otros, sorry. (el mejor para mi es el de Making History)
* El camino del sabio de Walter Riso: Los filosofos de la antigüedad para gente normal como nosotros. Ademas entretenido.
* La aventura del tocador de señoras de Eduardo Mendoza: muy gracioso, un buen rato leyendo :D
* On cats, de Doris Lessing, autobiografico o gatobiografico, muy chulo si te gustan esos bichos (a mi si ^.^)
* De Arquimedes a Einstein de Manuel Lozano Leyva: ya lo lei hace tiempo pero lo he vuelto a reeler! es genial!! este es superrecomendable: segun el titulo, las biografias, anecdotas y demas elementos historicos que rodearon los mejores experimentos. Es divertido, se entiende todo y de repente se entienden muchas otras cosas! sin duda hay que leerlo.
Hala, si os atreveis, mejor en VO!
besos!!
Hellooo! Although I have been away from here, I managed to read something. As Ilike to tell you through the right column the book I am currently reading and many have already gone, I've put them together in a collage-illustration (I stuck the original covers to make it look more "real" :). If you are thinking about what to read here you have some ideas... if you want. (the following are just my opinions, they may differ from yours and that's all right!. They are not my favorite books, they just are the ones I've recently read)
* The road by Cormac McCarthy: sooo bleak, grey and worrying ... is the end a bit rushed ¿? you read it in one go, (if you have the time... I took longer cause I don't have any. see precedent post haha :b)
* El mundo by Juan Jose Millás: autobio, typical madrileñish, or any kid in Spain in those years.
* The death of Bunny Munro by Nick Cave, plot is good, very well written, he writeshis own lyrics you know?,hehe, but you have to like novels with lots of sex.. (I didn't know about it, got a bit bored, and the title already gives away the ending!! mmmñññ ), perfect for men, I think.
* Man in the dark by Paul Auster, typical his, if you already know his style. It's good, very up to date with contemporary history.
* The white tiger by Aravind Adiga. It happens in India, written as an e-mail. original and trapping.
* The stars' tennis balls by Stephen Fry... The scariest and darkest thing I've read since American Psycho (and that was a long time ago). oh may may!
* Moab is my washpot by Stephen Fry tambien... autobio, not as trapping as the others, sorry. (the best for me is Making History)
* El camino del sabio by Walter Riso: classic philosophy for normal people. Easy to read as well.
* La aventura del tocador de señoras by Eduardo Mendoza: very funny, try it if you know Spanish!!
* On cats, by Doris Lessing, autobio or catbio, really, great if you like the catlife (I do ^.^)
* De Arquimedes a Einstein de Manuel Lozano Leyva: I read some time ago, but I read it again! it's brilliant!! biographies, historic events, funny things that surrounded the most interesting experiments and its authors. It's fun, easy to understand and suddenly you understand many more things. Highly recommended!! it's a must!
There you go, if you can, try original version. love!!

I neeeeed moooore tiiime!!
Ultimamente el tiempo se me hace muy corto, o se me pasa muy rápido, que es lo mismo..., por eso me pasa esto con el blog...
Debe ser la edad, y encima dicen que cuanto mas mayor, mas rapido se pasa...
Decia Punset el otro dia en su programa de Redes que para que parezca que el tiempo es mas largo hay que hacer el mayor numero de cosas diferentes... es verdad que parece que cunde mas... asi que nada, a probar cosas nuevas...
Ilustracion nueva, estilo clasico, ayudará algo? :)

Hello again! Time goes too fast lately for me... or it's too short... that's why my snail updating rate in my blog :( It must be I'm aging, and they say that the older you are the faster time flies... mmmñññ In a science program they said the other day that if you do many different things during the day time seems to last longer... so, it might be a matter of trying something new... New illustration, classic style, would it help? :) Hope you like it
Cheers!
DIBUS FROM THE PISCI //sketching at the pool
Holaaaaaa!
Parecia que esto se habia muerto... ññññ pero no, todo llega, hasta el tiempo para subir mas dibujos... Que vergüenza, que abandono... en fin, si es que no he podido.
Bueno, espero compensar este tiempo de espera... y ademas os visitaré para que sepais que aun existo... el ego que no renuncia a su protagonismo. Y contaré mas cosas, por si todavia hay alguien que me lee.
Empiezo por dibujos de las vacaciones: unos sketches piscineros para que no parezcan tan lejanas! y unos colorines con la DS...
Espero que hayais sido felices este tiempo y ahora mas aun!!
Besos
Helllooooooo! You might have thought that this was dead! but it isn't! time to upload some drawings has finally arrived!! :) shame on me for being disconnected for so long! but I couldn't. I hope I can compensate all this time. I will also visit you... so you know I exist (my ego doesn't let me hide, haha) Here I post some holidays drawings: sketches from the swimming pool (it helps facing the autumn) and some colors with the DS... I hope you have been happy all this time and now you will be even more !
DREAMING
Hola hola! he vuelto otra vez! como estais? Va a ser que este es mi ritmo natural de actualizacion del blog y que intentar ir mas rapido es ciencia-ficcion, jeje ayay. Os pongo una ilustracion que he hecho para Tom Wild y su proyecto-libro Lucidity, que va de sueños. Espero que os guste...
Y ya que estamos de sueños, nos han dado 2 premios hace muy poco!!: A la direccion artistica del anuncio de Renfe en el FIAP (festival iberoamericano de la publicidad) y otro a la caracterización del anuncio de Repsol, de la APCP (asociacion de productoras del cine publicitario), asi que por mi parte estoy supercontenta : D yuhuuu! y les doy las gracias a los equipazos de gente que los han hecho posible.
Hi there! I'm back again! how are you? I think this is going to be the natural pace of updating my blog, so trying to go faster seems to be science-fiction, well I'll have to give way to nature... I post today an illustration made for Tom Wild's project Lucidity book, which is about dreams. I hope you like it.
And by the way, we got awarded!! we got the award to the art direction with Renfe spot in the FIAP (Advertising Iberoamerican Festival) and the award to characterization (art and make-up) with Repsol by the Association of Advertising Film Producers (APCP Spain). I am very happy and I thank all the people that made them possible.
Ok, thats all for now, Besos!! enjoy
Oh my back!!

I would love that my design got chosen to be printed on a t-shirt, but this depends on the score and the number of votes it gets from the people in general. Could you please help me?

"It's Just Another Classical Advert!"
Hello! freelance work and official work don't let me do any new stuff, so I post today an illustration I did that appears in a commercial for Merida's Classical Theater Festival (Spain) by Vida en Marte (http://www.vidaenmarte.com/). I include the youtube links and I hope you like them ( I did a little simple animation for the first one and this closing eyes drawing for the second one)
UNA SI Y UNA NO
Y que no tengo tiempo de ponerme a hacer alguna ilustración en condiciones!! ayayayay, la vida ajetreada....
Back from the holidays
Hooola! cuanto tiempo!!
Parece que las vacaciones le dan mas ocupacion a una que lo contrario.. :)
Que pena que se acabaron, tan pronto... como se echan de menos los 2 meses que teniamos cuando el cole... en fin, es lo que toca.
En fin, que casi no he podido ni pasarme por la güé... a ver si ahora puedo pasearme por todos los blogs y ver que habeis hecho en las vacas, seguro que cosas muy chulas. Muchas gracias por vuestros comentarios, que aunque no me he paseado, los he leido todos, bueno, prometo devolver las visitas :)
Mientras tanto cuelgo unos sketches hechos durante las vacaciones. Yo tambien me he apuntado al Colors de la DS, me parece fantastico!!! aunque aun se me hace un poco dificil de usar. Sobre todo cuando la pantalla se ve toda gris porque es de dia, que pena el contraste. Os dejo unos dibujos hechos con este programita (el de la playa esta hecho a ciegas, exterior, solazo, pantalla gris..., asi me salió, pero creo que es divertido ponerlo, las fotos hechas despues, para comparar, quien me mandará a mi... bueno, asi os reis de mi...jajaja). Bueno, y un sketch a mano para no perder la costumbre.
Mil besos
Hello hello! It's been a long time. In this while I have been on holidays! but they haven't been that long... :( they are soo short!! I have been doing things, even more busy during the holidays, I need some more holidays to rest now, hahaha!
Thanks for visiting during this time. I will return them, I promise :)
I post now some drawings done during the holidays. I've been using the DSColors, it's fantastic!! I 'm not too skillful with it yet, but it's very funny, it's great for sketching in the last hours of the day, if you are outdoors, otherways the screen is all grey, and you cannot see anything (the beach drawing was made like that: sun, grey screen, no contrast... that's why the result, hahaha, but I think is fun to try). Took the photos after drawing, to compare... and to make you laugh, I'm sure, hahaha :D
Anyway, hope you like them. And I also include a traditional marker on blankbook sketch too so we don't forget.
thousand kisses!
