Travels

Hello everyone! Today I will write about my travels. 

Which in reality are few, haha, but I'll tell you anyway.

First of all, i should say that i have only travelled in Chile and that I know from the high north to the 10th region in the south. No more no less.

The last big journey that i did was last year to San Pedro de Atacama, where I had the marvellous opportunity to walk through the desert, see orange butterflies everywhere, spend time with local native people, get to know some valleys and be able to surround myself with the magic of those such overwhelming and beautiful lands. 

It was really a very beautiful experience. 

But now, thinking of more usual journeys for me and the places that i frequent most, it would be two: Mulchén and Valparaíso.

Both places have for me a very powerful significance. In both there are family traces or legacies, well, my family still live in Mulchén, and Valparaíso was where my great grandfather arrived to live after the Spanish civil war.

Both are equally magical places. Mulchén, a small town punctuated with rivers and woods, located in the 8th region, very tranquil and welcoming, that in the end is like returning to my origins. 

And Valparaíso, wow! Haha, a place of constant change, of eternal bohemia, of unlimited art, of people with an open heart, the hills and the sea, wow!

An experience full of ecstasy and happiness every time I go. 

Both places are always very nourishing. 

That only leaves me to say that I love to travel, I love to know new places and their peoples, involve myself in other cultures, be able to submerge myself in other cosmovisions and always try to be respectful of new customs, because I hate those from Santiago who think they are superior to other places in Chile!

Santiago is not Chile!

“A Subject I've enjoyed studying this semester”

Here a good friend :) Leo.

This semester was quite curious for me, because for a start we did not begin with the student demonstrations as tends to happen around the months of april to may, they are just recently beginning a few weeks ago, which has meant that I have been studying continuously for almost 3 months, a strange thing for the University of Chile, haha.

Of all the subjects I have taken this semester, the one which I most enjoyed and has made me grow as an art student, has been the drawing class from Professor Patricia Vargas. In this workshop i have been able to understand the phenomenon of drawing as a language in itself, a sensitive language, full of the details that make up the whole and that make it into a really authentic and human, and therefore very beautiful, action.

In this workshop we draw the human figure every class, with nude models and, then by ourselves we also draw portraits, self-portraits, parts of the human body such as the hands or feet, or really whatever interests us with regards to the human body. 

In reality I have to say that the human as a theme fascinates me in the drawing, equally being able to observe bodies, being able to translate bodies, being able to give expression and dignity to these representations. It seems to me that it is an act of liberty being able to draw someone from life and that this person gives part of their time and a part of themselves to be captured by someone else's eye and pencil which avidly observes them.

A person/expert on your field that you admire.

My favorite woman is Audrey Hepburn, a spectacular theather actress, dancer and person.
Born on May 4, 1929, in Brussels, Belgium, Audrey was a talented performer known for her beauty, elegance and grace. Often imitated, she remains one of Hollywood's greatest style icons.
A native of Brussels, Hepburn spent part of her youth in England at a boarding school there. During much of World War II, she studied at the Arnhem Conservatory in The Netherlands.
When Audrey turned 22 years, she began to participate in so many theater plays on Brodway and films.

The best known films was Breakfast at Tiffany's, Funny face, Green Mansions, The Unforgiven, The children's hour, Charade, Paris when it sizzles, my fair lady, How to steal a million, and the most

outstanding:
Wait until Dark

She like me because was a great woman and artist, and she always did what she believed was right with her art.

Really I love this woman, was a great person!
