Perdonad, pero esto es un platanero.

My favourite part of the movie. You can waggle all you wanna.

This could have been a magic moment.
But it turned into quiet a stressful one.


Haha.

Failed idea.


The initial idea for my business cards was to have watercolour paper (previously painted with bright colours) silkscreened with white letters. It looked good in my mind. And in Photoshop.

I got my painting done.

Look at those colours!

The white didn't work at all (as Jannetje had previously pointed out, but Sander and I wouldn't listen). So we went for gold. Gold didn't work either, so we went for black. The mix of both colours combined with too much pressure gave us this disappointing result. It could be interesting for another occasion, but on your business cardd, your contact details have to be clear and readable... which wasn't our case.
Some started looking a bit better after a few goes.
And these, together with a few more, could be saved. I'll treasure them until I find an art director with a super cool studio, offering incredible conditions.

Special thanks to Sander Van Loon who helped me with his empathy and did all the silkscreening.

Jenny bought a boat!

Jurgen and Jenny came to pick me up at Coolhaven. "It's the white and mango boat".


Jenny looking happy with her new adquisition. This is the beginning of a whole new life style!

Summer dress.


I wish it was hot enough to wear lovely summer dresses without cardigans or jackets or leggins or tights.

Dead zebra.

For a moment I thought the unhung black and white hammock on my neighbour's garden floor was a dead zebra.

Must have been something I was shown yesterday and was still stuck in my head.

Would you buy this?


I'm planning on becoming rich selling buttons. How about 2 Euros each? (Click to enlarge)

A day off in Amsterdam.

Good advice. Specially the "leave them alone" part.

Old n' handsome.Though I must say "old" is becoming a more relative concept for me lately.

Thoughtful Carol.



Carol Rodríguez is a talented illustrator and graphic designer I studied with. She sent me this drawing today. I really like it!
