It's all about having a moleskine, and a place where you can place it. I guess.

This is, just too awesome to be true.
This guy, Christoph! has something with Belle and Sebastian and Legos, which is just AWESOME.
Visit the whole gallery, it's worth it. Here are some of my favorites:

Being an internet entity as I am, I know my way around memes.
I wasn't very aware of this, but there was no way I could let it go unnoticed.
Being as it is.

As if it was specially made for the occasion...

Oh, the light.

Generally I love light. As in, it is very peculiar and interesting. But... BUT, sometimes our use of light makes me a giant squid of anger.

Again, hurried by the impatience of time, and the frustration of how all this, too, shall pass. I give you again some pieces of internet I've found. Food for the soul I'd say.





It can.

Alphonse Mucha

I made a post about Magritte's work some days ago, and explained I like it so much mainly because of the ideological content. Now I want to share another artist. Alphonse Mucha. His main work is doing posters, in an art nouveau current with "utilitarian" art. His posters feature beautiful women surrounded by nature and flowers. Honestly, I don't believe there's much to it, but I just love the bi-dimensional, almost vectorial design he makes, and how much intensity it acquires by being so simple.

Let me show you




I truly enjoy this particular one because of my mystical background. Growing up as a kid I was very much into all the esoteric, mystical, mythical and magical. And this poster would have taken my breath away, the soft and even subtle beauty that comes from her eyes. The ornamentation, yet achieving a weird sense of harmony in the whole piece. As if we were seeing the portrait of the queen of all that is magical, ethereal, and righteous.


The there's pieces like this one too



This one's not purposefully esoteric, but it still holds a certain mystical air. They are rather simple drawings, not using many colors and not paying much attention to reality and image depth, it holds a certain beauty that I find sublime. Maybe it's just plain and out there, but I find a subtle appeal to it.



But anyway, just keep clicking away.
