Art is my only exit.

I'm drawing my photographs.

There were some nice and simple gestures you made this weekend. I know some of them were not new, but these gestures create some nice highlights in my heart. I love staring at you while you do them. I take a lot of photographs with my eyes. You have no idea how many photographs I have in my head. I draw them so I don't forget.

Hubo algunos detalles lindos y simples que hiciste este fin de semana. Se que algunos no son nuevos, pero estos detalles resaltan en mi corazon. Me encanta mirarte mientras los haces. Tomo muchas fotos mentales. No tienes ni idea cuantas fotos tengo en mi cabeza. Dibujo para no olvidar.

Splash. Tengo muchas ganas de splash.

The Chest

Sometimes I forget that I have my blog to say out loud some stuff I have here (points the chest)

big mega sigh.

Blah Art

Existentialism

Casa Cuadrada

Although there is no truly self-professed movement calling itself this, existentialism naturally influenced numerous mid-century artists agreeing with existentialism's understanding of existence taking place as an isolated solitary phenomenon in an absurd world but nevertheless affording the freedom for one to define oneself. Simone de Beauvoir said in 1965 that for these artists existentialism seemed to "authorize them to accept their transitory condition without renouncing a certain absolute, to face horror and absurdity while still retaining their human dignity" (qtd. in Dempsey 176). So existentialism refers more to the mood and thought in the art rather than a distinctive and consistent style.

Enjoy the moment

Another Crying Portrait February 2009

Picture taken maybe 2 months ago, but it fits today's mood.

ANXIETY, oh fucking gawd I really need to calm the fuck down.

Ayer me dolio el pecho todo el dia.

Quiero besos tuyos.

Update: the anxiety was over as soon as I started to breath and meditate.

Buddy and Diamond

I'd like to be an illustrator for children books. It's one of my dreams. Sometimes I look for short stories written by kids. I found this hilarious one http://www.bedtime.com/html/buddy_and_diamond.htm about gerbils going to the disco :)

Hello 2010!

Welcome 2010 :)

This is the first time I share this. This is my "12 o'clock new day of every year drawing" I've been doing this for some time now. I have to draw something fast because people usually are behind my back ready to give me hugs and kisses.

PS: Hello Canada!

When Protest Posters Strike....

This is what happens when something breaks.....when something is affected by the visual taste.

Llamemos a Lista blog

Llamemos a lista Facebook group


and besides the fact that I'm the creator of both groups (technically, cause it was Trejos' idea)

I'm enjoying a lot the fact that my university was affected by the visual ideals that we all have been learning the past 2 years and half. This is the power of images, it's the power of the visual contact. That is why it is essential to me to draw, to photograph, to capture the power.

Long live the image.
Que viva...

y pues si, tengo pereza de traducir. Y que?
