Lilith's moly

Sorry everyone. I've sent out my last moly awfully late.



It was great to have this art exchange experience with your guys. <3

My last entry..

..in Ped's moleskine. As my town (Bedford) doesn't have much of a cityscape, I chose Berlin. Sorry if you were hoping for something English. Maybe not...? In January I spent some time in Berlin, and loved it. For the background of this entry I used a photo that I took there. (whilst going round on a ferris wheel!)

It's quite simple, just some stitching onto paper. Down the side it says 'i dont live here. but i will'. (im dreaming...)

Here it is with all of your lovely pages. sorry the picture isn't the best, but it's just getting so longgg now it's hard to fit it all in!

I think that i'm going to have to say that I won't be able to do another round, and I know that some of you feel the same. I'm going to be travelling for a lot of the year and I won't be able to keep up with it. But thankyou everyone for letting me be a part of this exchange, i really enjoyed it. Getting interesting post from abroad was always good, and now I get to keep something created by all of you! 

Well I think that's enough from me, I hope you like it!

..by the way- i'll send this back to you Ped along with my moly,as i don't think you've had it yet?sorry to have taken so long with that! 

Hi everyone!!

Haven't touch base with everyone for a long time. I still have Lilith's moly with me. I'll send to Ped next week. And I have received my own full moly. Thanks guys. So how's the progress of everyone's moly?

Another question should be, do you guys want to do a second round? We can set another theme for our moly and pass around again. But my moly doesn't have much pages left. So maybe we can do a two-page entry. What do you guys think?

October Diary for Ronny

Silk-screen printing,
Collage,
Gel pens,
Rubber stamps.

I am ready to send this moleskine to its owner.

Progress of each Moly (as I know)

Please bare with me that I'm trying to get things straight (again!!). I have pretty bad organizational skills, haha. So here are the progress of each moly that I know of. Let me know if there's any updates.

Katya has: Ronny's and Katya's molys
Ronny has: Lilith's moly
Laura has: Laura's moly
Lilith has: Ped's moly
And I don't think Ped has any moly on his hands right now.

November is gonna be really hectic and crazy for me. So I'll try to finish Lilith's moly as soon as possible. And some of our molys have been filled by all of us except Ped. If so, please send those molys directly to Ped. I think that's the best way. And also, we can decide whether we want to do another round of exchanging molys after we all receive our own molys.

my entry on Katya´s Moly

This artwork was done as part of moly_x: international sketchbook exchange, group Moly_X_11.

At the first page on Ekaterina Taganova´s Moleskine I could read: "Don´t be afraid of perfection: you´ll never attain it!"; and then "No lazy masterpieces" also.

So I decided to draw with plenty of freedom, and resulted an amazing landscape inspired by the mediterranean coast and its vegetation. Specially, I wanted to represent the yellow Agave -also called "Pita"-, a fabulous plant that flourish once on its life, and then dead.

I think that´s the spirit on art. Give it all and then falling without breath.

[En las primeras páginas de la Moleskine de Ekaterina Taganova, pude leer: "No tengas miedo de la perfección: ¡Nunca la lograrás!"; también algo así como "No obras maestras aburridas".

Así que decidí dibujar con una abundante libertad, y resultó un sorprendente paisaje inspirado en la costa mediterránea y su vegetación. En especial, me apeteció representar el Ágave amarilla o Pita, una planta fabulosa que florece una vez y después muere.

Pienso que ese es el espíritu en Arte: darlo todo y después caer sin aliento.]
