Simple process




I wanted to share a simple process that works for me: 1. The Mexican sun flower (third photo) is the inspiration for my drawing. • 2. The next step is creating a line drawing by hand (second photo). • 3. The illustration (first photo) was done by scanning the line drawing to Adobe Photoshop and manipulating it in Adobe Illustrator, playing with shapes, colors and come up with the final composition. Happy Friday.

Tomato pickling


Tomatoes, hot pepper and parsley from our garden, garlic cloves and look warm salted water. Wait a few days, don't forget to shake the jar gently once or twice a day and voila, you get pickled tomatoes. Enjoy.
