Deep in the sea

 

Alphonsine Storni

 Everybody knows the sad ending of the argentinian poet Alphonsine Storni. Unlike the song, Alphonsine threw herself from a cliff to end her suffering life with cancer. 

I remember the first time I heard this song, it was on those days when I used to study piano. Waltzes were the favorite and easy musical pieces for piano recitals while "Alphonsine and the sea" was the musical piece for guitar students. Nice times!

Here is the second part of Alphonsine's final.

Alfonsina y el Mar - Alphonsine and the sea

 I made a 9 pages comic inspired by the popular Argentinian zamba "Alphonsine and the sea".  The first time I heard it, I was a teenager and someone was  playing it. The music composed by Ariel Ramirez and lyrics by Felix Luna. The song narrates what it might be the last moments of the writer Alphonsine Storni.

 

Caution

 Testing new art software...

Modern flapper

 This is other style of painting, this one is easier. Just filling with the bucket tool everywhere.

I didn't correct the mistake in the fingers, it was just another painted sketch.

Painting sketch

 Still learning about painting in blocks. I started this without any line sketch. Just dropping sketching directly with the paint.

I like the sketchy look.

Bacchus

 In the wine country!

Biker

This one was inspired by the song "Space Oddity" by the famous white Duke, David Bowie.

Confidence

Confidence is not: "They don't like me". Confidence is: "I don't care if they don't".  Show them with actions, not just words.

Roses land

I noticed that I draw and draw....but I don't post. I usually trash them or file them. Well, I was scanning many the other day, it took me an hour....how I hate to scan!
This was made in 2014 for the cover of the story Million Roses.

Mermaid Story in 3 shots

This is the last sequential artwork I made in a Wacom Mobile Studio Pro. This 3 shot sequential art was inspired in a napolitan song  by Pink Martini. As you know I like to inspire in songs. If you need the translation of this story, please feel free to let me know. Thanks

Mermaid

I live by the beach and it gives me many stories. Last year I wrote a short one which I will print for Fanzine Fest this year.
Here is one of those inspirations turned into clay picture. It's my first time I worked with air dry modelling clay and it was really relaxing. Next time I'll do it much better for sure.
I also posted a song about a mermaid in napolitan italian language.
Last edit for this post: This clay artwork was already sold...I am working in another one.
Thanks for visiting me !

WAX

An illustration for IllustrationFriday. Based on the word WAX.
Nice web for illustrators.

Storyboard

This is a short storyboard inspired by the love for animals. It reminds me to an old song..." I love my dog as much as I love you but you may fade, my dog will always come through..♫ " You can listen it here:
