Birthday girl
We are celebrating Adriana's birthday this week and this is a little illustration I did for her party invitations. I had an animals-picnic-in-woodland type of thing ready to print but then she wanted a drawing of her as a pirate, so here's my little pirate girl. Just for the record, it's a lot easier to draw invitations for a 4 year old than it is to organize the actual party.

Those kids ...
I did this for my daughter a couple of weeks ago. Not that I am specially happy with how the colors turned out but my little bossy girl gave me a lecture on how bad it is because “Mom, a bear does not sit in a chair and girls DO NOT sit with bears to drink tea! This is so wrong!" and yes, this is the same girl that tried to convince me this morning about flies who like spicy food or the one that every single day fills the backseat of my car with stones “because they are magical!!" Talk about encouragement!
You can buy a print of this illustration at at pizublic.etsy.com or sending me a message.

Color pencils
I've been using color pencils for the last month after uhmm ... more than a decade, and I must admit I'm astounded by the results, especially on toned paper.
I'm having some problems with the shadows when working on regular white paper but I' like it. I'm using Faber Castell Polychromos, the same I used back in college. I hated them because I'll always ended with a dirty piece of paper and because nobody told me how to use them and obviously you have to be really careful not to push too hard( at least if you are a newcomer like me) and that's something I failed miserably with my first tin box of pencils.

Quick Sketch
Practicing some figure drawing with my daughter while she was playing. Not a very quiet model but I’m very happy how this turned out. I’m more on the “slow” side when it comes to drawing so I tried something different this time. Click on the image to view more pictures.
