The Eternal Lover ("Favole: Stone Tears" - Victoria Francés)

The original is not mine. I drew this from a trilogy called "Favole" written and illustrated by the Spanish artist Victoria Francés (The original can be found in page 22 of the first book).
The title for this drawing comes from a story my mother made up for her. Actually I had forgotten about that story until I found this drawing.
I like the leaves and the hair, but I don't like neither the clothing, nor the wings (they were that small in the original as well) and I'm not quite convinced about the face

Car - Lamborghini Veneno for Luis


I have this friend who loves cars. It's been said several times by another friend to describe him that "He looks more a car than a woman", and I agree with that statement. So this is what I did for his birthday. I think this car looks really weird and is ridiculous expensive, but I know he loved this car when he saw it in the news. Therefore I draw it for him in his birthday. I hope you like it, and I swear the colours in the picture were as you see it here. So I don't know exactly what colour this car is for real because it had black, blue and red in some parts of the bodywork.

A Portrait of a Good Friend


Marta is a friend I made in Germany. Though we come from the same city, which is not too big, I had never met her until I started my ERASMUS year. I think she's very pretty: with dark brown eyes, weird-shaped nose and her beautiful dark hair. She isn't my best friend, but she's a good friend, so I wanted to make something special on her birthday (plus, I really wanted to draw her because she's really cute). I thought this drawing will please her, and it did. Now I'm sharing it with you, guys, because it's one of the best drawings I've made so far. Specially I'm really proud of the hood, that took me like 15min just to figure out how to start drawing the "hairs" of it.

Roses for Andreea




Yes, my friends, flowers again. A girl-friend of mine had his birthday a month ago and I did this for her because, you know, flowers are easy to draw and usually girls love them (plus I had already drawn for her a plane because she had asked me to, so it isn't like I had to do anything actually). I don't know if you can actually tell because I had to make some "arrangements" to the photo I took of the drawing (or it was impossible to see it properly), but the two roses aren't the same red.

The Muse that whispers in my ear


Might look a little bit creepy, but this was originally going to be a gift for a Muse I once had..., but at the end I just didn't think he would like it. So here it is.
There're a lot of things wrong with this drawing, but I still like the legs, perspective, face and hair of the girl, ... perhaps even the figure of the ghost is OK.

A Pin-up for Jorge


Hey, guys! I did this for a friend on his birthday because I knew he would appreciate her. I told him he had to put her on the wall, though. Making shadows on the skin was hard. Also this was the first time I attended to make a drawing of a person on pen, and that was tough too. the sofa looks too simple, but it's because I run out of time to finish it properly. I'm pretty proud of the face and all the clothes in black she's wearing. You can look the original on the Internet and compare, but I think I like  more the expression I drew on her face that the one the original had.

A Rose for Victoria


Today, guys, I feel like a Goddess!! Look at this. All made by pen (something I've never done before, at least not in colour). At the beginning I made the drawing and shadows with black pen, but a friend of mine saw it and said: "can't you add colour to it? Like with a red pen make so some of the petals here in the bottom are a little red? Here you can borrow my red pen for the rose and this green one for the leaves". So I thought "challenge accepted!". I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, but I'd like the idea of trying something new and different. So here it is. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did making it. Man! I feel so proud. The leaves aren't the best and the bow I made it too fast, but the rose itself is pretty awesome. Also I try to make the little flowers violet with blue and red pen, but I think it didn't turn out too good. Oh! Well, it's hard to find a violet Bic pen.

P.D. Today I figured out how the scanning machine in the "Bibliothek" works. So from now on I'll try to make better scans. This one I had to scan it as a PDF document, then "display it in the screen", make "Impr pant" and copy it to paint, and finally uploaded it here. Hopefully from now on I'll be able to scan it with better definition and also in a compatible format.
P.P.D. Hey! Apparently I've been writing "Geburtstag" (Birthday in German) wrong all this time. I've just found out, which was pretty sad. It's not my fault actually, I have a  huge "postcard" my friends made for me in my birthday and somebody spelt it wrong, and I was using that to write my "best wishes cards". Well, I hope my friends like the drawing anyhow.
