she made me a beard

fresh from an infinite labyrinth of italian customs and postal beaurocracy! i'm excited about sporting it for those crisp october bike rides!

when the rain comes.

this is an illustration i did as part of a book project i started, but didn't ever feel ready to finish or to show anyone. it makes me think of how easy it is to lose faith in one's own capabilities. it was my first attempt at writing and illustrating my own book, and an attempt to bring philosophy to children. it helped me understand the complexity and the hard work behind such a task, and how much determination is needed. i will fish it out of the closet again, at some point. everything has its time, it seems.

questa e' un'illustrazione che feci tempo fa, parte di un progetto per un libro cominciato, ma mai finito. all'epoca non lo sentivo pronto, o non mi sentivo pronta, e quindi lo misi da parte. mi fa pensare alla facilita' con cui si dubita delle proprie capacita'. e' stato il mio primo tentativo di scivere ed illustrare un libro, che aveva come scopo avvicinare i bambini alla filosofia. e' stato anche un progetto utile per capire le complessita' e il lavoro che c'e' dietro una tale impresa. un giorno lo ritirero' fuori. ogni cosa ha il suo tempo, o cosi' pare.

six strings on the ukelele makes it a mini guitar

"eugene on the ukelele", acrylics and pencil on wood

so i made this a while ago and distractedly drew six strings on the ukelele. my brother, who is a ukelele master, then pointed out that i couldn't call it what it wasn't, due to the string excess. but i decided to leave eugene to his alliteration for now.

beards, a tribute.

this is a little drawing i did yesterday after stumbling on erin's beard blog, which is just genius. because deep down, we all want beards.

un disegno fatto ieri ispirato al blog barboso di erin, che trovo geniale. perche' in fondo, tutti/e vorremmo una barba.
