Working on...

Hello everybody! Here's a sneak peek at a new illustration I'm working on. Hope you all had a nice weekend!

Melancholia

Melancholia. 2011. Lars von Trier.

I've just seen the latest film by Lars von Trier and I just loved it. I usually like Lars von Trier cinema (although Antichrist was

too much for me), but this one has become a favourite. As a lover of Pre-Raphaelites and Romantic paintings I enjoyed all

the references in the film, and the images altogether with Wagner music gave me goosebumps. So, for those who haven't

watched the film yet, I really recommend it; so inspiring!

Work in process

These are some photos of the working process of my final studies project. At the moment I'm working at a stage which is

quite fun: choosing papers and testing. Unfortunately, I won't be able to show you the finished project till december.

Meanwhile, hope you enjoy this sneak peek!

New Prints Coming Soon!

I'm planning to sell new prints in my online shop, like The Little Mermaid in the picture which is available for pre-order.

Also, if you're interested in buying a print of any illustration (even if it's not in the shop) just contact me at

Frank Chimero

While looking through books searching information for my master final project, I came across the work of Frank

Chimero. Among his work are these great designs for designers.

Teresina

Teresina (or a tribute to Magritte).
"Halló lo que le diferenciaba de Teresina; ella era distinta, era infantil y primitivamente sana. Esta muchacha, como todas

las personas, como él mismo había hecho antes, confiaba siempre de forma instintiva en el futuro, en el mañana, en el

pasado mañana, en la continuación. (...). Y él lo sentía profundamente; en esto era él completamente distinto. Para él

detrás de cada sensación y pensamiento estaba abierta la puerta que conducía a la nada. Tenía miedo a muchas cosas,

al absurdo, a la policía, al insomnio, miedo a la muerte. (...)".

Klein y Wagner. Herman Hesse.
