(late) mondayMAKINGS #6 ~Vacation Memories~

Drawing beach treasures...

  Dear patient readers! 

Finally I manage to take some time getting back into BLOGGING! YAY!^^
THX for stopping by, and not forgetting about my Bastelbar! =D
It's actually Tuesday already, I know... but now that I found time to blog, why wait another week? ;)
(good thing about being the one who made the rules... means I can break them whenever I have to)

After a hard and long exams period I had the chance to break out of everything here at home and
went on vacation for two weeks to the beautiful, magical, sweet and awesome coast of Lyme Regis.
It's a small town in South England, with a famous harbour, great landscape and friendly inhabitants.
Here's some offspring of the(re)creational time I took there.
Hope you enjoy it. Feel free to leave a critique in the comments below! ^^

mondayMAKINGS #2 ~Drawing a Dream Home~

Drawing of a Black Pearl Farm Hut - 2009

This drawing was made in 2009, when I had one of my peak phases of dreaming wildly about my future, and what I want to do with my live. . .
I was in preparation for the entrance exam and portfolio needed for architecture college, when I found a photo somewhere in the web of this stilt house. It immediately triggered fantasies of becoming a (pearl) diver, living a poor but happy life at a beautiful beach. . . 
hahhh. . . 
woudn't you want to live in that hut, too?! =)

Anyways, of course I had to draw it. And here it is.
Still not my house. . .not even similar to my current home, actually. . .(besides, maybe the leaky walls;b) but still loved and dreamed of.

Someday,. . . I'll built something like that and declare it HOME. ^^ 

. . . Who's with me?! . . .

For the sake of my deeply rooted intense LOVE and CRAVING for the mother-of-all-life OCEAN, I'm starting a series here, to post all those wonderful breathtaking, task-stopping, revel-forcing views of the waves I stumble upon in the web world.
