Bem, se fazem duas semanas que meu mascote-amigo-filho, meu coelho Draco morreu e desde então eu perdi minha inspiração. E nada melhor que fazer o que se gosta pra melhorar, né? #draconocéu #ripbunny #bringmybabyback #noinspiration #nohapiness #drawingtoforget

I find drawing your friends to be quite a lovely and intimate experience. The more I look, the more I see... and I love it very much. I really do enjoy drawing my friends or even strangers on the bus. I like capturing casual moments of people, what cannot be caught on camera... to have that person sitting in front of you, fidgeting or not, is quite special. I find some photographs to be so flat and often, the person taking it made sure the picture is perfect. I hate perfect (in art) ! Imperfect is my perfect. I want to see the person as they are naturally, every vulnerability and so called blemish. Every sigh, every blink and every slight movement... I find that so beautiful and enchanting, it often takes my breath away. I love seeing people as they are, totally natural and honest... photographs are a lie, a whisper of the truth ( a beautiful lie, a masked fact ). Art is so personal and subjective. I like seeing imperfections and vulnerabilities in art. For me, there's got to be something more aesthetic. There's got to be something deeper or else I'm not interested. It doesn't have to be a portrayal of human suffering but just some damn honesty, whether it be someone lounging on a couch or someone caught in the middle of despair. I love seeing vulnerability captured, both in works of fiction and non. It enthralls me to no end. Saying that, I still love photographs. I like seeing moments captured, a ghost of what that person saw moments before. I don't want anyone thinking I am talking ill of photography because that is definitely far from the case. I admire many artists in this genre! I just hold some ill feelings towards some things...
