Tomorrow's update today (yet again)

Hi folks! I won't have time to update my blog tomorrow so here goes a quick digital painting I did this afternoon. It's from a photograph I took at the Met (it's somebody´s sculpture, I don't know, I'm really bad with names).
I was kinda rusty when I started but eventually I got the hang of it.
Hope you enjoy it.
It's all Photoshop in this one.
Thanks for looking.

Happy Halloween!

Hello folks! We found an apartment! Yay!
But we haven´t got it yet (paperwork, you know, it´s going to take a while, even here). But in the meantime I´ve been meeting some people, making some connections etc.
I haven´t had time to draw or paint in a while therefore I´m posting an old drawing.
I did it about two years ago, I just thought it would be appropriate to post it today (for obvious reasons).
Pen and ink on paper.
Hope you enjoy it.

Peek-a-Boo!

I know, I know, it´s too soon for a Halloween update but I just felt like it. And besides, God knows when we´ll be able to finish our apartment hunt. Until then daily updates will be almost impossible, folks.
I was fooling around with the apperture on this one... And (colorwise) a little bit with Photoshop later.
Thanks for stopping by, and for checking my blog regularly.

Bart Station

I took this photograph inside Pleasanton Bart Station, I like the way the light was breaking up the space. I only had to compose it and click.
Thanks for looking.

Yay! Updates again!

Hello folks, how are you all doing?
I have been quite busy this past week, we arrived in Brazil on Thursday and since then we have been looking for an apartment (as well as visiting the family, socializing with people, making some calls etc).
This update has kind of a nostalgic feeling for me. I took this photograph at the Fisherman´s Wharf in San Fran a few days before we left. I´ll miss San Francisco but what I´ll miss the most is the people I met there (artists, some instructors but especially my friends - thanks for having lunch with us, guys. Hey Al, we missed you there).
Anyway, I hope you´ll enjoy the updates from today on (only photo updates for a while, I´ll start with the drawing updates as soon as we find an apartment).
Thanks for stopping by.

Another photograph I took in Sonoma. Great place to visit!

Chinatown

San Francisco's Chinatown.
Thanks for looking.

Sonoma

I took this one yesterday in Sonoma.
Hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for looking.

Enjoying SF

We have about a week left before we move to Brazil. As you can imagine we're trying to do as many touristy things as we can.
This is the view we had from our old apartment.
I'm gonna miss that place...
Thanks for stopping by.

Back in SF

Hello folks!
We're back in San Fran.
I took this one at the Stonestown mall last night. Hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for stopping by.

Santa Monica

We'll be driving back to SF tomorrow.
I took this one yesterday.
Santa Monica, early evening.
Thanks for stopping by.

Nice Moon

I took this one in San Fran some days ago.
Thanks for looking.

Tomorrow's Update Today

Hello everyone!
I won't be able to update my blog tomorrow (October 7th) so I decided to do it tonight.
My wife, a friend and I drove to LA today. I took this one at the Farmers Market.
This one gave me a hard time because I didn't use a tripod.
Hope you guys enjoy it.

Yay! Update!

Hello folks, I'm back after a few days off.
This photo was taken yesterday. I went to a friend's building's rooftop and was amazed with the view.
Thanks for checking my blog regularly.
Hope you guys enjoy it.
See ya.

I'll be back in a few days...

Unfortunately I won't be able to update my blog anytime soon, we have to clean up the apartment before we return the keys, so it will take a while. I'll be back with the daily updates sometime next week.
Thanks for checking out my blog.

Done!

We have finally finished packing everything, I feel I can almost listen to 'Hallelujah' playing in the background. The moving company came today and took all the boxes away... What a relief!!! I had to pull an all-nighter the night before so I feel pretty tired and sore right now. I'll be back with the drawing and digital painting updates in a week or so but until then feel free to enjoy the daily photography updates. I'll be hitting the coffee shops again in a couple of days. I miss sketching people but right now I feel like I need a vacation... and some sleep.
Thanks for your patience.

Still packing...

The moving company will come over to pick up everything tomorrow. On one hand we will be finally finished with all this packing we've been doing, on the other hand we HAVE to finish packing everything by tomorrow!!!!!!
Today will be a really busy day.
I took this one in Kyoto, Japan.

Another lazy day...

We're still busy packing things up but my wife and I decided to slow down a bit.
When I'm done with this update I think I'm gonna take a nap (haven't done that in a while).
I took this one in Brazil. I forgot the name of the city though but it's close to Parati.
Thanks for stopping by.

Yosemite

I took this one at Yosemite National Park in California.
Great place to go, very inspirational. I felt overwhelmed by its Natural beauty and (of course) by Ansel Adams' photographs. The great master set the bar so high on photographing Yosemite that I couldn't help feeling a little intimidated.

Almost time to go

I'll be flying home in three weeks and I can't wait to get back. Although time will seem to fly, I know that the following weeks will feel like forever.
I just want to go home...
