In Which one cannot build a nice house in rocky unstable foundations

Good morning, dear reader of this post, my friend. How are you, in this first week of July? I hope your last month went well? For me, because of the college work being more demanding alongside other woes, I cannot say I particularly thrived in those two last ones, neither in May, or June. It is not fault of Winter or Fall, and I will not take people blaming the best weather of the year for the faults of some assignments and deep loneliness. I am sad that, in June, I could not do much to aknowledge Midmas, but it is not fault of this quirky little thing I have tried to make it happen with me, and again, I won't take people blaming my longing for Christmas. And if anything, there is July, we will see if I will do a postcard or something. Anyway, the weather is lovely, and even with my financial concerns, I cannot say exactly that June will end on a sad note or downward trend. Just turbulence. If anything, it was also the blog's anniversary on the 8th! That is wonderful, isn't...

In Which we have some Christmas decoration, real and in drawing!

Hello everyone! Happy Saturday to you, and I do wish you the best today! How are you today, and how are things going? It's a bit very hot here, but Christmas time is here, so that is amazing! I'm a bit hungry right at this moment... I can't believe we're on the last moments of 2018, it is something I'm not thinking about these hours, and I don't want to, for now it's still 2018, there's the unknown coming. The Unknown was 2018, which is now approaching its end. It was explored, discovered. The things I found were nice and not nice, I had nice and awful moments, but well, 2019 is coming, Christmas is about this as well! The coming of the new, the new is coming, 2019 is coming, and Christmas is every time of the year anyway, so well, I shouldn't be that scared, and anyway, going with no expectations may be a great thing after all! Well, we have another Christmas post today! I realized this is the last time on 2018 I have the opportunity to do a picture of the week and a sketch of the week, so I'll do both today! Some nice last pictures of 2018 Christmas, and a sketch I did in homage to my best friends!


I saw this Christmas tablecloth that is truly wonderful and comes each year without a fault, specially on the festivities of 24th and 25th of December, the height of the season! They are enchanting on both sides, and I decided to use it as the background to this wonderful christmas house that I love so much, the result was something that reminded me a bit of Wes Anderson, and I do love Wes Anderson a lot! I love the colors of Christmas, the snow, the beautiful pinetree, the small details on this beautiful sculpture of a lovely house, so perfect it is! I also took some pictures of the tablecloth itself, and I'm so excited to show that too to you guys!!


I did love the theme, extremely pleasant to see, fits so well with Christmas season!  And as we progress, let me wrap this post by showing a small teapot and a teacup I did to my wonderful online friend the Captain and Becky!! 


Here I just made a porcelain teacup with some kitten details and a small teacup with a cat in it!!! I love my friends so much, I just wanted to make that to them, but I also love teacups and porcelain and cats and stuff, so it was a theme I was really happy to work with! Making stuff for people is nice, not only because you show them how much you like them, but also a way to push yourself on doing better drawings without necessarily stressing so much, or at least bearing the stress better, because the joy of gifting someone something you did to them is a great one, and you just want to do the best to your friends! I do make nice drawings to myself as well, but making drawings to others helps me improve even more as well! So here we have, our small Christmas special post! One more!! Thank you so much for reading this and being here! You're the very best, and see you next time!
