i have to say i’m working like a fool to make up for the last days i’ve been sick and finish new animals(tapir!tapir!) and i’m truly in awe to make them seriously kitch this time.but you know really unbearably kitsch, something that you wouldn’t like to admit you’ve bought haha.yes, that type of kitsch.i’ll make few examples just like that for myself and to adorn if i ever get me a proper studio room.of course, if i ever get guts i’ll show it to you.

we’re taking Garibaldi under surgery on this friday.i’ve spent yesterday whole morning photographing his mouth&teeth, so it could already be seen what is to take off.he is such a super collaborative chap.i don’t know what else could i say here, you know as about everything from me to him.i do,do hope for the best.send us some good vibes on friday morning you fine people,ok?thanks forever.

 

fortune cookie says there’s a need of an pause to let go away all of the ambition.i admit it would make my heart lighter,just for a little while.i have so many ideas, i’m only worried that they don’t become in time a mere ambitions.i should by wiser by now.

 

some time ago(almost two years ago) i participated in a project called A4GOD, which as a base idea invited you to represent a  god in A4 format.the project evolved into book with 105 contributions of 105 contemporary italian illustrators.the book looks excellent, and is accompanied by a vinil.

the presentation of a book will happen at BILBOLBUL, international comics festival in Bologna in first week of March at Officina Teatrale dei Maicontenti on friday 2nd. and on 4th of march at Modo Infoshop.you can buy a copy at Sala Borsa by the whole time of the festival.

i do not recall a lot from the period i was asked to participate but i do remember my drawing and the fact it has clearly anticipated the ideas i had in mind for this last year.

you can see our faces on the site, just click on the names on left and the drawings will be added sometime soon(after official presentation), i’ll also let you know when it will be possibile to buy the book online.

idea by STUDIO POMO.

 

 

we welcomed the new shoe entry in the house, always a volta footwear, these are a gift from my sister.that woman knows my type of shoes and the just right time to gift me with them.i love mens shoes, tomboy shoes, high heel shoes and you know in general shoes.and she so knows it.<3

for the rest i am diving into comfort food.strawberries.

i have talked before about this band, but they’re so criminally underrated that any occasion to speak about them is good.this song is from they debut album.and a new album will be up in april.i should have saw them opening for deerhunter in Bologna last year, but off course i got sick, this year they should be up in Turin in may so i may as well go.i can’t believe how many people believes a singer, Jana Hunter, is a boy.and i love that she plays with that.

Marta ; i dearly,dearly hope he will.thanks so much for the sweetest words,they sound so good now.xx

Mette ; being so friendly to me, you have already done so :).xo

spending too much time in one room with Garibaldi&Buzz, but alas it’s even a working room.and when the lights get low and rain starts to hit hard, we even pull the curtains on.i’m so so as some things that i expected to go well didn’t go well and this maybe even bothers me, but what more bothers me is that Garibaldi is not doing so well with his mouth and his legs, we’ve been giving him antibiotics&other cures and we’re going on, but it is more than evident he’s getting really old.and surgery wouldn’t help.it is making me anxious.i’m really attached to this dog,beyond my comprehension as i’ve had many dogs through my life.i’ve never been a panic person and i confine in that.but this time in a certain way, i’m really worried for myself.i don’t like to make this blog readers sad, but he makes such a big part of my life that i can not keep this feeling exclusively for myself anymore.and this above all is just my diary.in good or in bad.

thank goodness it is monday and my father is coming soon, internet lessons&everything else.

i know, i know, they are superiorly beautifully ugly, which makes them perfect for me.i scored them at 70% discount on volta footwear (i love their shoes), because i had luck and on full price, they’re bit out of my reach.they’re warm, yes,yes,yes. and darn we had snow storms this weeks, so this was full necessity.

do you like the label dots? guess who hooked me up on them.as Mette told so the shop is called label.123. so i’ve checked for label.123 on ebay and i lost my mind until i realized it is labels.123!s,s,s!!!now i’m adding them to all my packages&parcels.

beside zebra, which i adore,it is really this crazy pink, there’s a photo of my nephew, his first photo for his first passport.it just cracks me up.it makes this space a favourite spot in my place.except for the couch of course.
