Hola cabrones soy yo el lado oscuro, andrea me obliga a escribir aqui xssx, esto ultimo a sido mi raton pasando por encima del ordenador. Se supone que hoy iba a terminar mi obra magna pero tengo resaca y he estado todo el dia cebandome. Macarrones con queso, bocadillos, pizza, galletas chocolate, muerte. Mañana me pondre a currar con los cuadros que tengo que hacer, 3 de dos metros o asi. Tambien me esta molando el rollo graffitero me voy a volver un negro rapero y a pintar paredes. Estoy un pocco en coma pero ya que he aprendido a usar esto mañanana escribre.

One, two, three! ONE STEP FORWARD MARIA One, two, three! ONE STEP BACKWARD
Here goes the soundtrack.

It's been exactly one year, one month, 1 week, and 15 hours since I last wrote my first and only post. Yes this is how I intend to someone follow this blog.
But before trying to get a FRESH start, I believed I had to translate first what I wrote previously as I intend to keep a bilingual blog, this way both people back in Spain and here in England, can keep track! Woaoh what a wish! I really don´t understand what I´m doing here.I really should be sitting in a Miss America beauty contest.
Well, after my brilliant joke which could be easily compared to a failed attempt of David Brent from The Office, I think there is no need to explain half of the things written here were, (and probably will keep being) written with humour, a lot of humour…and yes, when I read them back, I also feel embarrassed.
So now this point is clear I am not afraid anymore to expose my stupidity and I won't listen to that wise saying that goes “Better to remain silent and appear stupid than to speak and confirm the suspicions” and who has lately been banging in my head. I know “silence gives consent" but I'm tired of consenting!
Speaking of exposing oneself, among the many things that have happened this year, Maria has made her first solo exhibition in the POUSS gallery in Madrid from the 4th of November until the end of January of this year.
I consider it was very brave from her because in an exhibition (especially in a solo one), just like when speaking, one exhibits oneself to criticism and even if in a conference we had at university last week where the renowned art critic Peter Suchin reminded us that art critics are on the side of teaching the artist, we are all human and we are (I believe) all scared, me the first one. Before exposing myself I need to have worked a lot so I can feel safe but Maria has worked like a dog and has done it..so Congratulations Maria!:) Also, before and after the exhibition she has given several interviews, gifting the same literary pearls as she does in real life haha which I found very funny.
Well the following are some of the paintings that appeared in the show, I couldn't go to the opening because I was in London and I was going to Madrid for Christmas on the following week (no one cares about this detail) but
my point is that I did went to see it later and the paintings were as heartbreaking as they appear in the photos. Check yourself!
These are some pictures of the opening in which appears a very happy María, Rubén - her boyfriend and indeed his ultimate muse, Anderonion and Anuskel in an animated conversation, Danone with the Ibarra brothers, Cris Marañón, Ade, Alejandra .. etc. My father also appears in one of those- he has always admired the strength of Maria´s drawings, her mother, and Ruben Bejarano …and although I don’t know him personally I know that he has made much of this possible.

Now that we are more or less up to date, and we will continue catching up, I want to put pictures of a painting I did in November but now on account of the birthday of the sitter, I want to publish because she still has not seen it or even known about its existence, Happy Birthday Auro!
Mmmh.. I´m having some technical problems so my wishes will have to wait!
Here tomorrow!

From me to you.
(This is the english translation from the original entry posted in spanish on the 1st of January of 2010)
Andrea(left)and María(right)during summer 2010 in London attending courses in St. Martins.
Maria this is my Christmas gift. From me to you. From Peouhjo to Tah, from white to black, from Yemel to Cabesa, from so many things …but above all, from a friend to another friend.
After the message I wrote you at 5am the other day, I have decided that sending each other love declarations every 6 months is not good enough, and this blog, perhaps could end what I don´t want it to become a chronic lack of communication between you and me.
(Yes, María is my soul mate or my mate from evil, but since a year and a half ago(2 and a half years ago now) we started college, she got a boyfriend and I went to London to study, we don´t talk that often and we see each other even less. I know that every time we meet again everything is as before and we laugh as ever, but as I said in the message, I miss being amazed day by day with your wise wit and your grace of junkie).
With this blog not only I would enjoy you more often, I also intend to see if in this 2010 we apply ourselves the popular saying "New Year, New Life," that " this year we put on our batteries!" or that of "of course, we are clearly Socrates and Menon only we touch our balls" ...Modesty aside you know what I mean.
Here we could hang our art work and contrast ideas. Could support and encourage each other to work and do what (we think) we can do. It is clear that our styles are totally different but the more communication, the more enriching. And we could organize ourselves to do things together. People can comment which is always good to hear other opinions ... And it also serves to let ourselves being known, that you get discovered by Elite and we are finally commissioned the Septine Chapel. And above all, to clown around... that is what we do best!
Happy 2010 and best wishes to this blog to go well:)!

De mí para tí.
María este es mi regalo de navidad. De mí para tí. De Peouhjo a Tah, de blanco a negro, de Yemel a Cabesa, de tantas cosas... pero sobre todo de una amiga a otra amiga.
Después del mensaje que te escribí el otro día a las 5 de la mañana, he decidido que mandarnos declaraciones de amor cada 6 meses no es suficiente, y que este blog; tal vez podría poner fin a lo que no quiero que se convierta en una incomunicación crónica entre tu yo.
(Sí, María es mi amiga del alma o del mal, pero desde hace un año que empezamos la universidad, se echó novio y yo me he ido a Londres a estudiar hablamos más bien poco y nos vemos más bien menos. Sé que cuando nos volvemos a ver todo es como antes y nos reímos como siempre, pero como te dijé en el mensaje, echo en falta sorprenderme día a día con tu ingenio de sabio y tu gracia de yonki).
Con este blog además de poder disfrutar de ti más a menudo, pretendo ver si por fin con este 2010 nos aplicamos el cuento de "año nuevo, vida nueva", eso de "¡venga, este año nos ponemos las pilas!" o eso de "claro, es que somos Socrates y Menón lo que pasa es que nos tocamos las pelotas"... Modestia aparte tú sabes a lo que me refiero.
Aquí podríamos colgar trabajos de arte y contrastar ideas. Podríamos apoyarnos e incitarnos mutuamente a currar más y hacer lo que (creemos) que sabemos hacer. Está claro que nuestros estilos son totalmente diferentes pero cuanta más comunicación más enriquecedor. Y también podríamos organizarnos para hacer cosas juntas. Puede comentar la gente que siempre está bien escuchar otras opiniones... Y también sirve para darnos a conocer, que te fiche Elite y que nos encarguen ya de una vez la Capilla Septina. Y sobre todo para hacer el capullo...que es lo que se nos da mejor!
Feliz 2010 y los mejores deseos para que este blog salga bien:)!
