HEAVY

Yesterday, immediately after work, I ran to visit my favorite bookshop. In my way there I passed by Starbucks, the weather was great and I decided to seat outside and have a coffee and muffin. I took out my sketch book, began doodling, and this heavy panda was born, the curious thing is I was going to draw him some bamboos…but when he saw my muffin he refused to think about all green stuff…he just wanted the heavy raspberry muffin! (I understand him since those muffins are delicious!) I guess people around me thought I was crazy for photographing a muffin over a sketch…haha

Wonderful panda! You have such a strong stle, I could really see your work having mass appeal on products like coordinating stationery, aimed maybe at youngish teenagers?..

Un consejo, vuelve a la costumbre de traducir al castellano, tiu qye hablas los dos, para que los que te seguimos te entendamos (mejor), y retoma este Panda más a menudo, por que es genial, me mola un huev... jajajaja.

Ay mi madre!!! y yo tratando de bajar medidas para el acto académico, que mejor que un "ponquecito" y un café de "máquina" para evitarlo. Me encanta el Panda, las costuras a los lados disimularían muy bien una cirugía estética, ja, ja. No se mucho de arte pero la composición que muestras me gusta.
