A Retrospective...

...started with the first post. This is the Nap.  In many towns near   or facing the Caribbean, noon is a tough time. Sometimes the heat is unbearable (unless you are at the beach, but then it's NOT your town), and after lunch -our main meal during the day-, what you really want to do is to take a nap. The image reflects that moment, where everything was left in there to rest for a while. In those towns, that time is called something similar to the "hour of the donkey', hence the title in Spanish. The atmosphere is just that...blurred!  Modeled and rendered in Carrara.

Una retrospectiva que comenzó con el post anterior o primero. En Inglés llamé a esta imagen "La siesta". En español es simplemente "La hora del Burro", la hora del mediodía, la hora "nona". Siendo el almuerzo nuestra principal comida del día, después de comer lo que da es un sueño descomunal. Mientras más caluroso el pueblo, peor el sueño y más sabroso "el camarón". Y el ambiente es así mismo, brumoso. Uno no sabe si por el aire o por el sueño :-)  Modelada y renderizada en Carrara. 

A foreword...

In 2008 I was asked to make a presentation about what I loved to do. This is it ! I think it's a good intro to what this blog is about. A way to show certain 'retrospective' of some of my artworks and to let people know some hidden aspects of them. After all, you'd never appreciate a phone nowadays with the same criteria you used with those funny ones with wheels :-)
It's also the best way to explain why I enjoy Second Life as a virtual world. It's not only to create one - as you'll see in the video. It's to live and interact inside one :-)

 So here we go.

To my dear Spanish speaking friends, here's the translation.

Some of my artworks are available for printing at Zazzle. They will appear -as this blog develops- to the right column. Thank you for watching!
