16 - Draw Something Green



For the Every Day in May Challenge, a green Tea Cosy. We had afternoon tea at The Rocks, with tea and scones. Later on we went to the Broadway show "Mary Poppins" very appropiate!


Para el reto de "Every Day in May". Un Tea Cosy verde. Es una especie de "jersey" que le ponen a las teteras. Fuimos a tomar un te con Scones y luego a ver el Musical de Broadway "Mary Poppins". Muy apropiado :)

EDIM #9 - Draw a clock that you have around the house.


I was supposed to draw a clock that I have around the house, but I do not own a clock! we are a generation not really used to one-function devices, and a clock seems useless! but we have clocks everywhere! in our mobiles, our ipods, mp3 playes, ipads and laptops! 

Tenia que dibujar para hoy un "reloj" pero no tengo ninguno! Somos una generación para la cual, aparatos con "un solo uso" nos parecen inútiles. En fin, tengo "relojes" en todas partes, en todos los mobiles, ipads, ipods, mp3 y portatiles de la casa! :D Pero no, no tenemos reloj!

EDIM # 7 - How I get my news


I normally get my news from the Internet on my iPad. I like to read The Guardian and then I move to different newspapers around the world. I like to read the news every day.

This painting is the first time that I paint with gouache ever. 

Normalmente leo las noticias en Internet con mi iPad. Me gusta empezar por The Guardian y de ahi moverme a diferentes periódicos internacionales. Leo la premsa cada día. 

Esta pintado con gouache, es la primera vez que uso este tipo de pintura.

EDIM #6- Draw something sour - Lemons!

For the challenge of today "Draw something tart or sour" I decided to use watercolor pencils. I had them for more than three years, but I never used them. This challenge is turning to be one of materials, not only of topics. 

Para el reto de hoy "Dibuja algo amargo" he decidido usar mis lápices acuarelables. Hace tres años que los tenía (me los regalaron) pero no los he usado hasta hoy! El reto de "Every Day in May" se esta convirtiendo en un reto de usar diferentes materiales cada día y no solo de dibujar diferentes temas.

EDIM #4 - Salt and pepper shakers



This is my first drawing ever to be completed with Winsor and Newton watercolors. Before that I being using "School" Watercolors and that's my first chance to use the professional set (well.. "Cotman" but the quality of their colors is soooo great). 

Este es mi primer dibujo pintado con acuarelas "Cotman" de Winsor and Newton en lugar de acuarelas de "estudiante". Es un gran paso y el resultado me ha convencido de seguir practicando con mejores instrumentos.

I have the power plug! - EDIM #2


Today is day 2 for "Every Day in May" Challenge and I was supposed to draw a Power Plug. Well, I did draw a power cord, but also a bit of my childhood in the 80's. A show that was around where a man used to yell that he had the power... and I just gave him a plug.

More information about the challenge: http://www.wendyshortland.com/pages/EDiM.pdf

Hoy es dia 2 del reto "Every Day in May". Se suponía que dibujara un enchufe de corriente. De hecho lo he dibujado, pero también un trocito de mi infancia en los 80. Unos dibujos animados en los que un señor solía sostener una espada cargada de rayos eléctricos y sostenía el poder... le he dado un enchufe.
