In Which I think of the book project and brainstorm briefly on it!

Hello, my friend, reader of this present post! I am happy to see you once again. It is great to be here. How are you? Hopefully the week went fine? As for me, I am okay, I'd say. The birthday week, so to speak, was relatively uneventful, except for some bursts of anxiety at the evening of day 12, precisely at the day of celebration. Family time can be a challenge...  I often think if my book idea would go anywhere... I wanted to write my thoughts on urban planning and architecture, and yet I imagine any path I take, will likely be faced wirh cruel scrutiny, and the only variable will be what will the lane they will pick, if any. Firstly, I did read the great book by Mrs. Jacobs on the death and life of great American cities, and wanted to emulate it. I thought on a research, then I thought it would be better to write from my life experience instead.. perhaps I should do a life experience writing, with researches if proven necessary? The fact is I am gloomy about brazilian cities an...

Art of the week! In which we talk about the beautiful forest of the flying fishes

Hello and happy Saturday to you, dear reader of this post! How are you today and how are things going? As usual, I wish you the best and really hope you're having a good day and things are really fine for you! Today is being a really hot day, which is sad, I miss the rain. I see some places with snow, I love snow, I've never seen it personally but it looks so wonderfully beautiful! I wish one day I could see snow. I don't like this heat, I wish I was in a place more fresh, but anyway, it is a fine Saturday of November, a really nice month, and I like Saturdays indeed! I've made a sketch and I plan on doing some more later! I'm also working on my story as well! Wrote two chapters yesterday and I'm already thinking on maybe writing some more today as well, who knows? Hopefully I will do just that! Yahoo!
And today I decided to bring the art of the week I was thinking about sometime ago here to the blog! For now it will not be something I'll do every week, specially because sometimes I have other themes I'd like to talk, like food, movies, just monologues, poetry, other stuff, but it's nice to have a theme of the day, even as a backup, so when I may feel like having an artistic block, that can help lift me up and deliver a nice post for you to read and me to be happy as well! And today I have a superb illustration to show here, made by the incredible artist Heikala! Here we have the School of Fish!


There are some illustrations and pieces of art that have the power to improve your day tremendously, and you never forget about them, and they become iconic not only on parts of your life, but also always. This is one of them, it came to my life on the right time, on this late 2018. It is imaginative, inspiring and truly wonderful, as are other works from this incredible artist! This one inspired me on my tale of the kittens, though the raw material for that one was a dream, and it also inspire my sketches every day! It is indeed a breathtaking world and one I'd love to be a part of, just to see fishes flying on the forest in a lovely way, with the beautiful colors and just the wonderful details in it. It is also inspiring me on the story I'm writing on, and probably will on others I may do in the future, if I do any, because I'm an extremely slow writer, and most of the stuff I start I never finish. Anyway, I truly loved this piece of fine illustration, and just wanted to share with you all here! Like I said, the work of this fantastic illustrator is truly lovely, so if you want to see more about the artist, you can follow her on Twitter at @heikala_art, and you can also follow her at her instagram @heikala, and you can also check her website at Heikala! I'll definitely have more of her art on my blog because her work pleases me immensely!
And the School of Fish is what we have for today on the divagation store! Thank you so much for reading and being here! You're the very best, dear reader, and I appreciate you a lot! Have a wonderful day!
