Savour

When i saw this week’s IF word, i immediately thought of my trip to Japan a few years ago. Each meal is a sumptuous feast and the beauty of it all might take your breath away, every single time.
At first, you get this crazy rush whenever the food is coming to your table, snap your camera, take 15 shots of it and start eating real fast, too fast.
But then, you don’t take pictures anymore, and you eat slower, so you can enjoy to look at it a little longer..

sneaky liar
When i was a little girl, i used to eat a lot and still, i remained hungry for more, much more.
So, i started to sneak into the kitchen at night, grab cheese, bread sticks or salami, and run back to my bedroom, without ever waking up anybody. Still, suspicions started to arise. And that’s what i would always tell my mum....

Invincible summer
16/11/2010
It is always interesting to see how things translate well, or not. I stumbled upon this quote form Albert Camus last week, and it really struck me. This invincible summer...it just burns, or keeps you warm at least.
In french, it goes : "Au milieu de l’hiver, j’ai découvert en moi un invincible été.”

Like for instance, i imagine her owning a hair salon some decades ago in America, and that one reads porn in the library he works at, and that other one being seriously lonely, and obsessed with birds...
The dog
09/10/2010
Last year, my friend Y. sent a postcard from Tokyo, and i always thought it represented a wolf. It doesn't, indeed. It is a Japanese dog. The card 's been hanging on the fridge ever since. Today, i did a drawing of it, and now, it looks like a pig. Well.
Mademoiselle Moustache
22/06/2010
Last week, i was in a little antiquity shop in Lisbon, and i found a collection of old pictures from the 1920's representing Portuguese women with mustaches. Each of them had a perfectly groomed little black mustache. And of course, it stuck in my mind, till now. I just find it fascinating.
My IF "Paisley" took unexpected ways.

Saudade

I don't know if it was the craziness of the ocean, the Pasteis de Nata that are to die for, the language, the tiles everywhere, the amazing landscapes down south on the Algarve Cost, the flowers and the fruits with their vibrant colours and shapes, the Carminho concert surrounded by Chantilly-hair ladies singing along and crying their eyes out while I, well, did exactly the same, the oysters, drinking undecent amounts of caipirinhas on Santo António de Lisboa's Day in Barrio Alto till morning, getting hit by gigantic waves, come out naked and knocked out, desperatly trying to find my bikini burried in the sand while hiding my breast and still find it tremendously funny; or the T-Bone Steak watching the sunset in Chapitô......but, boy, i fell in love.
The 50's stylish Bar is called Cervejaria Solmar Lisboa.

AVEK
12/05/2010
Recently i worked on a project for 2 Fashion Designers, Anna & Vera, who created a label called avek.
Here is a sample of their latest work, and mine on their logo design and lookbook.
I love the way they see fashion, it's refreshing, very detailled, and yet understated.

Fearless *SPLASH*

Illustration Friday's Fearless...
I thought of all the things that make me feel uncomfortable... heights, water, void, what people think of me, or rather people watching me fail.
And i came up with this. And it made me feel better ♥

Maggie's soul train, take 02
04/05/2010
I've been inspired by LP's covers recently, mostly Chinese soul from the 60's, the pictures are amazing, and the names too!! I wondered what it when all these singers gathered...
I also found this great quote, which is oh-so true with musicians: " I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Eventually everything connects - people, ideas, objects. The quality of the connections is the key to quality per se.

Nothing is never nothing and something is never something and everything is quite different from what it seems to be.
