So I am back. After two or so months of doing virtually nothing AND going to London.

Just as promised I have nothing to show for my much needed break. I have found though, that in Spain, people like myself who sport a liking for art and design and such, are severely discriminated by Book Publishers. So I went to London, and went crazy with all the books I found without trying very hard at all. Which is kinda sad... what they think Spanish people have a mental deficit that doesn't allow them to appreciate good interesting books about non-mainstream subjects? Whatever. I ogled them all, bought some (preferebly of smaller size to fit them in my luggage) and salivated over those I couldn't afford. Uh... thinking about it I already want to go back.

As a result of said purchases I have a malestrom of ideas doing the rounds in may head and bothering me with half-formed ideas and projects that will continue to bother me until Christmas at least.

Sadly, none of that mental hiperactivity has traduced in me putting to use my new tablet, as colors just seem to have suddenly muddled in my head. So I packed it up and stuck to lineart drawing for the time being. Not that I have worked very hard at all... mostly I've lost a huge amount of time watching british historical movies and being a Dark Angel junkie over the summer to work properly at anything.

But despite all I have some soon to be aired linearts floating around:

- "Elwing" will most definitely see the light soon.
- "Morwen" and "Rían" have also been completed despite much inking problems.
- I'm currently working on "Silmarien and the Ruling Queens of Numenor"...  a series which is currently up to 2 but should be 5...

Anyway of that last project depends the time at which I scan them all and finally post them. I have up to day september 12. Gah... I provably won't finish in time. Scrap that, I have to.

The Lord of the Rings Characters still refuse to come clearly into my mind... until the day they do, I'm afraid they'll keep being the gaping hole in my Tolkien illustration. That and the fact that I still have to draw a male.

Is it only me or males are hardly represented in Art nouveau style? The other day I was trying to get some references to finally draw something less curvaceous and the serch results were depressing.
