How is everything going?
I was ordering some folders on my notebook last week and I found this illustration I made for an assignment at university. We had to create an illustration that showed something about ourselves. It was for presenting you in front of the class. I always hated activities where you have to talk about yourself. Maybe because I never had a very accurate definition of who I was, and later I understood you know yourself after years, experience.
So I remember thinking what I would show and how. I made a list of words that felt that had anything to do with myself. Dreamer was one of them. I am still a person that it is half of the time daydreaming. Sometimes that also makes me a little bit distracted, but I feel that through the years I had improved that.
Thinking of me as a daydreaming person, and as an English teacher told me once "living in the clouds" I came up with this illustration: a girl (me) on a cloud, happy looking up like thinking about something. Of course she had a striped t shirt because I loved striped clothes (still do).
I remember presenting it in fron of my class, so nervous, I don't like to talk in front of a crowd, but I was so relieved because they understood what I wanted to communicate, they really liked it :)
My drawing style has changed since then, but my dreams are still here. And I believe some part of me is still up there, in the clouds.
