Happy Holidays, folks! 
Hope you all have a great season of celebration!
I wish I had come up with a drawing for this weekend, but not only I've been doing a whole lot of things and taking care of some side projects artwise, the day I finally decided to do some X-Mas pic had quite an unexpected ending...
The last grandmother we had alive passed away after a heart stop at the age of 85 this friday 23rd almost by midnight here. It has been nearly ten years since she was fighting Alzheimer's disease, and in the mean time a lot of her health suffered from the side effects.
Of course the pain of loss is unavoidable, but this is a longlasting Kardecist family, so despite all the tears of sadness we can't help but drop and wipe away, at times like these all the faith on afterlife and reincarnation from such doctrine comes as a consolation for all these years seeing her suffering. Like one of my uncles said at the moment, grandma got her deserved rest after accomplishing her mission in this life with flying colors.
Eventually we'll all overcome it, of course, after all we did in other occasions before. A loss in the family is something we know we can't prevent, specially for natural causes, so we gotta accept it and be strong. I did drop my tears yesterday, a lot of them, and even if apparently there's none left the sorrow remains, still sighing all the time. At least I might recover my mood to draw yet this last week of 2016.
Peace out, everybody! See ya!

Oiling my OCs
My first and current art for this year's painting classes at art school. :D But this here is in a smaller canvas - 30x30cm, compared to that 'Dame Renard Au Nuit' one (40x50cm). Chances are I finish it this evening.
Thing is, my teacher liked the idea more than I expected he would. He doesn't really know my neverending cast of OCs or my dA account (and so doesn't any of my classmates), but even so he suggested that, if I have more cartoony characters to pick, I paint other three 30x30cm canvas fo them and put them together in a square formation. Needless to say this idea sounded too appealing to refuse. =p
See ya! Peace Out! Take care! :w00
So long, Carnaval...
Gotta confess, every year Carnaval feels like brief holidays to me. Four days with no duties, no tasks, no nothing, just binging on movies and TV, gaming here and there, visiting friends and family, having fun to the point of completely ignoring the clock. Never been the kind of joining the street festivities really. :D Maybe it's the lack of a nearby one - there's no Carnaval street parties in a radius of about 400 sq mi from where I live, so in my case you need to hit the road if you want to shake your booty in the middle of a heated dancing crowd to the nonstop sound of samba -, maybe it's just a matter of habit, this is one I never develo
Out with request, on with the rest
So, as I stated last year, this is the last request lottery I'll ever do. I mean, I seriously don't see myself getting back with them. They've been fun to do, of course, but not really that worthy to keep it on year after year. Besides, ask a lot of artists around: free art attracts a swarm of undesirable people never seen before, craving for some free drawing. Considering in the last year I haven't been spending as much time drawing or lurking around the web as I used to, adding to the fact I got more art to take care of regarding that graphic design/animation/2D games classes (just for this month I got logos, a vector art of Shy Guy and an
Commissions?
Then how about cheking out our fellow SkyJinks (https://www.deviantart.com/skyjinks)'s options? :) I know I will! :aww: At least a sketch for now...
As for me, I'll be tackling pending commissions one by one as soon as this Request Lottery ends. And remember how I said I'd be quitting them after I finish the current queue? I'm reconsidering about that, atlhough for now I won't take any new ones, but I may open slots as soon as I take care of what I already got.
See ya! Peace out! :w00t:
