Soma + Brazilian Customs Today in Sao Paulo takes place the second collective annual exhibition for Soma magazine! The exhibition is on until the 9th of October in Vila Madalena. Minor detail, my work is actually stuck with the Brazilian customs right now! That may be due to my amazing packaging skills, excessive use of cardboard sandwich layering and suspicious brown tape combination. According to a secret source though it could still show up in the exhibition space miraculously tonight
p.s special thanks to Natalia Lucki for helping with the exhibition and all the madness running around frame work!

Coyote
There comes a point in time where if one does not hunt, build shelters
or fish for living, one must try other kinds of regular physical exercise.

Observation. Must avoid bad posture.
Must evenly distribute weight on the feet, align ears above shoulders,
above hips while letting arms hang down naturally on the side of the body.

Sketch
I've been spending the past few days thinking about sitting
down and writing a little paragraph for each illustration on
my secret blog as I've been meaning to write on it for
a while now and I haven't done it for many reasons, mostly questionable excuses. Anyway here it is.

Conversations I've Never Had
Nobrow Independent publishers has started an illustration project
inspired by Nick White's new Nobrow book People I've Never Met &
Conversations I've Never Had. Brilliant subject.And this was my response for conversations I've never had. At first I was quite unsure which subject to approach, whether I should take this opportunity to finally make an image illustrating the subject of small talk, something I am quite uncomfortable with even though I tend to do it quite often with the butcher around the corner, maybe as a way to finally settle in the new neighbourhood or hoping to get a discount on a bit of steak.But nah, in the end I opted for country living.

A bit of background on this piece: This is a private
commission birthday gift for someone who owns a dog.
Creature Nation is a secret place of entertainment and experimentation created by art director Bruna Guerreiro. It is a space for drawing and creating wonderful things. Bruna was born in Rio de Janeiro and in 2001 moved to the UK to study and work. In 2007 graduating from an MA at Central Saint Martins.
"People inspire me.Being an artist living in the city with a fertile imagination is always something very exciting but you must be cautious when sitting in a bar and trying to paint an older woman as a plump pigeon or a businessman as a moose".
