Sono molto soddisfatta, si comportano esattamente come mi aspettavo! I colori sono più delicati dal vero che in scansione, per qualche motivo lo scanner li ha "sparati".

La prima è quella più recente, le altre due hanno circa 4-5 mesi. Divertitevi a fare qualche critica, mi piacciono molto! ;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm back at &lt;a href="http://www.comicsexperience.com/"&gt;Comics Experience&lt;/a&gt; for the advanced comic coloring course, and for my homework I picked a page from the same Hulk book that I made a couple pages from a while ago. They were supposed to be Marvel tryout pages but I have no idea whethere they were reviewed or not...&lt;br /&gt;The styles are a bit different because the first page is recent, while the other two (one is actually a splash page) are 4-5 months old. Please enjoy and leave some critique, I love critiques! ;)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-8437366588272319096?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/8437366588272319096/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=8437366588272319096&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/8437366588272319096'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/8437366588272319096'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2011/06/mi-ero-scordata-questi-comics.html' title='Mi ero scordata questi...

I fotografi di allora, quelli che immortalavano le dive del cinema muto, avevano una chiara formazione pittorica, dal momento che la fotografia era all'epoca un'arte relativamente nuova e non aveva ancora sviluppato un linguaggio proprio. Alcune di queste foto sembrano quasi quadri rinascimentali! Trovo che gli acquerelli siano perfetti per trasformarle in illustrazioni dolci e armoniose. Questa illustrazione è ispirata ad una bellissima foto dell'attrice &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethel_Clayton"&gt;Ethel Clayton&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Parlando di acquerelli, finalmente ho finito le illustrazioni per la seconda edizione del libro "Emozioni veneziane" di &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Anna-Emozioni-Veneziane-Castelli/245552296584"&gt;Anna Castelli&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Godetevi questa piccola anteprima! Si tratta del bassorilievo all'ingresso della &lt;a href="http://bluoscar.blogspot.com/2010/10/corte-morosini.html"&gt;Corte Morosini&lt;/a&gt;, a Venezia, uno dei luoghi in cui si svolgono le vicende del libro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;How I love vintage photos! The old photographers, those who made portraits of silent-film era actresses, were clearly coming from a painterly education, since photography was a relatively new art form back then, and still had not developed its own language. Some of these photographs look almost like Reinassance paintings! I think watercolors are perfect to turn them into sweet illustrations full of beauty and harmony. This illustration was inspired by a photo of the beautiful actress &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethel_Clayton"&gt;Ethel Clayton&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of watercolor, I have now finished illustrations for the second edition of the book "Emozioni veneziane" by &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Anna-Emozioni-Veneziane-Castelli/245552296584"&gt;Anna Castelli&lt;/a&gt;. Please enjoy this small preview!

Ok.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iniziamo da alcuni concetti di base.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;1) Premessa sul metodo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il tema delle pensioni è di enorme importanza nella vita di uno Stato, su questo non discuto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pur  non essendo esperto nel campo del diritto previdenziale estero, so   che, per esempio, nei paesi anglosassoni la pensione statale, dove   esiste, esiste in forma decisamente ridotta, anche perché sono popoli   comunque già abituati ad avere a che fare con la finanza.&lt;br /&gt;Quale sistema è migliore per lo Stato di cui facciamo parte? Argomento spinoso e interessante, però...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...nel  corso di questa indagine, però, parlerò di "diritto" nel senso di "con  le norme vigenti oggi, che diritti/doveri ci sono?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il  diritto "come dovrebbe essere", per quanto argomento importantissimo e &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;politica&lt;/span&gt; in senso nobile, non sarà parte della mia indagine, per ora mi  limiterò  allo "stato delle cose oggi".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il motivo è semplice: sennò non si finisce più, e lo scopo della ricerca è essere una guida pratica, con applicazioni immediate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 130%; font-weight: bold;"&gt;2) Cos'è "la pensione"?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L'INPS  si occupa di oltre 15 tipi diversi di erogazioni di denaro, tutte con  lo scopo di fornire un sostegno economico a chi ne ha diritto per legge,  vuoi per anzianità, vuoi per condizioni di salute (es.: invalidità), o  per altre caratteristiche.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quelle che interessano a noi sono:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Pensione di vecchiaia&lt;br /&gt;- Pensione di anzianità&lt;br /&gt;- Pensione supplementare (e relativi sottotipi)&lt;br /&gt;- Assegno Sociale&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oltre a ciò, c'è il mondo delle c.d. "pensioni private", che sarebbe più corretto chiamare "previdenza complementare".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;DISCLAIMER:  la previdenza complementare è parte del mio LAVORO. Per quanto io sia  in conflitto d'interessi sull'argomento, cercherò di distinguere BENE  ciò che dice la legge dalle mie valutazioni personali. Se così non  fosse, tiratemi le orecchie ed avrete ulteriori spiegazioni.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nelle  prossime puntate: cosa sono queste pensioni, come si fa ad averle, come  vengono retribuiti i fumettisti e come il metodo con cui vengono pagati  influisce sulle pensioni che avranno (che è poi il motivo per cui state  leggendo tutta 'sta roba, no?). &lt;/blockquote&gt;A presto con la prossima puntata!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;This is the follow-up to &lt;a href="http://mattiabulgarelli.blogspot.com/2011/02/pensione-i-concetti-base.html"&gt;Mattia Bulgarelli&lt;/a&gt;'s&amp;nbsp; research on Italian comic artists and whether they can, in the future, go into retirement... or not.

Evidentemente mettere allo scoperto questo tipo di comportamenti paga.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Beh, meglio tardi che mai.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;La maggior parte di voi già sapranno tutto quanto, eppure voglio ugualmente parlare di questa mia esperienza, perché magari può essere utile a qualcuno. Ho in mente soprattutto i giovani fumettisti, che sono molto esposti a questo genere di tranelli. Ne approfitterò per un discorso più generale sul valore del lavoro del fumettista. Dovrò per forza nominare delle altre persone coinvolte, spero che comprenderanno. :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;Come sapete, a giugno e a settembre 2009 uscirono due numeri di Mangaka, la rivista della Coniglio Editore che voleva provare a pubblicare degli autori di "manga occidentale", soprattutto italiani. Una lodevole iniziativa, in realtà già perdente in partenza per una serie di fattori: disomogeneità del target a cui la pubblicazione era destinata, prezzo troppo alto, fumetti troppo brevi, troppe "rubriche" a cui i lettori non erano interessati, limitata distribuzione anche nelle edicole delle grandi città e, ultima ma non ultima, una lunga tradizione di fallimenti delle riviste-contenitore nel nostro paese. Dopo appena due numeri, l'uscita di Mangaka venne interrotta. Questo è il triste finale della nostra storia. Ma ora torniamo all'inizio.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;Per il lancio della rivista furono contattati diversi autori di "manga italiano", tra cui ad esempio Massimo dall'Oglio (sceneggiato da Andrea Iovinelli), Federica di Meo e me medesima. A me era stato assicurato un compenso di 50 euro a tavola. Non sono al corrente del compenso che era stato promesso agli altri, ma so per certo che alla fine non ricevettero niente, esattamente come me. Dopo tanti mesi e numerose mail senza risposta o quasi, posso affermare per certo che la Coniglio Editore con noi ha chiuso così e non ha alcuna intenzione di pagare per il lavoro svolto, né ora né mai. Per assicurarmene, ho recentemente (si fa per dire) mandato una ennesima mail direttamente a Francesco Coniglio; mail che, come previsto, non è stata seguita da alcuna risposta.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;Il problema, cari aspiranti (ma anche affermati, purtroppo) fumettisti, è che il nostro è considerato un non-lavoro. Il fatto che gli editori ci campino, sulle tavole che noi disegnamo, non ha alcuna importanza. Perché se perdono un disegnatore, ne avranno subito un intero esercito pronto anche a lavorare gratis, all'occasione. La stampa si deve pagare. La distribuzione si deve pagare. Pagare l'autore, invece, è un optional.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;Ebbene, no. Non è un optional. Chi disegna tavole ci perde ore, giorni, settimane della sua vita e questo suo tempo e questa sua capacità devono essere ripagati adeguatamente. Le chiacchiere sulla crisi e sulle difficoltà economiche delle case editrici non possono, non devono attaccare. Qualunque azienda che non possa pagare i propri dipendenti è destinata a fallire, non a tirare avanti senza pagare coloro che vi lavorano. E le case editrici, che piaccia o meno, sono aziende.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;Per me è scontato che non si lavora mai gratuitamente (altrimenti non è lavoro, è schiavitù - oppure un favore, quando avvenga tra amici); ma nel caso in cui qualcuno assicurasse un pagamento che poi non arriva, propongo di parlarne sempre, apertamente, pubblicamente, come sto cercando di fare io. E' solo con la chiarezza che si combattono questi sistemi torbidi.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;Mi rivolgo ai giovani fumettisti (soprattutto quelli in stile manga: sono ancora più in difficoltà, se possibile), perché quando sento ciance sui grandi sogni da realizzare anche a costo di lavorare gratis o di adattarsi a tutto, mi si attorcigliano le budella. Chiarisco subito: la pensavo - quasi - come voi. Ma non è la forma mentis giusta, ve lo assicuro. Chi non paga, su queste cose ci marcia. E quando capiterà a voi, non ci sarà sogno che tenga: vi sentirete umiliati, calpestati e offesi. Se davvero il vostro sogno è così grande e impossibile da scalfire, autopubblicatevi (anche in gruppo, per limitare le spese), oppure aspettate l'occasione giusta, magari all'estero. Imparate bene l'inglese, se è possibile anche il francese. Non calate le braghe per nessuno. Se il vostro lavoro ha davvero un valore, troverà la sua strada e verrà ricompensato nel modo giusto. E come già dissi una volta (scatenando un flame spaventoso), impegnatevi quanto più possibile per tenervi aperto un sentiero alternativo, una via di fuga: se infatti non vi riuscirà di "sfondare" nel fumetto e non avrete niente altro in mano, vi ritroverete con un pugno di mosche. Non sarà divertente, no.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47; text-align: justify;"&gt;Larga la foglia, stretta la via, dite la vostra ché io ho detto la mia! :D&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Once again, this post is mostly in Italian as it is about a peculiarly Italian situation. Italian editors and publishing houses&amp;nbsp; seem to think that comic artists live off air and love, and therefore they can be paid late, for a part of the accorded price, or not at all. Nice, huh? I suppose anywhere else such people would end up with nobody working for them, but not in Italy. Go figure...&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Have you had any similar experience, with a non-private commissioner (publishing house and such) not paying?

Le conclusioni non sono rassicuranti. Si può fare qualcosa? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote style="color: #741b47;"&gt;Un fumettista ha diritto alla pensione?&lt;br /&gt;Se sì, come?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;L'argomento è davvero importante, perciò bando alle ciancie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Le mie credenziali le sapete: laurea in Economia; lavoro nel settore assicurativo, in particolare per il risparmio e la previdenza individuale e per le piccole aziende; ho un sacco di amici fumettisti; la mia futura moglie, Manuela, è un'ex-fumettista (in futuro si vedrà) ed illustratrice freelance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Questi amici e Manuela vorrebbero sapere se un giorno avranno mai la pensione, e alle prime indagini si sono accorti che è un ginepraio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Partiamo dall'idea che mi sono fatto in più di un lustro di frequentazioni di professionisti del settore: i fumettisti sono una categoria in gravissimo svantaggio, dal punto di vista della forza contrattuale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sono sempre di più come numero: dozzine, forse centinaia, di nuovi autori escono dalle scuole di fumetto ogni anno.&lt;br /&gt;Molti di loro sono pure bravi, pochi di loro hanno un'idea precisa di cosa voglia dire mettersi in proprio. Quasi nessuno ha una formazione di Diritto, di previdenza o di Economia in generale, neanche basilare, ed è normale e comprensibile: il vero problema è che, lavorando tendenzialmente separati, non sanno, spesso, a chi riferirsi per avere notizie affidabili su questi argomenti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gli editori italiani sono pochi e piccoli (Bonelli è un caso unico, fa genere e specie a sè), e, mediamente, non sono granché preparati in materia di previdenza.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E questo ancor prima di contare l' "allergia" che sembrano dimostrare verso i contratti in forma scritta, credendo, forse a ragione forse a torto, di avere una maggiore forza contrattuale sull'autore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La tendenza degli ultimi anni è, per la basilare legge della domanda (di fumetti, calante) e dell'offerta (di disegnatori, crescente) di pagare sempre meno.&lt;br /&gt;E non parliamo, perché non è l'argomento che m'interessa ora, del lungo elenco di casi di pagamenti arrivati parzialmente, in ritardo, o mai arrivati.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oltre ad un ricavo per ora di lavoro decisamente modesto, che non gli fa venire certo voglia di pagare un avvocato o un commercialista per andare a caccia di soluzioni, il fumettista soffre anche di un problema che è fondamentale per stabilire se ci sarà una pensione oppure no: non sa cos'è e non sa cosa fa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il fumettista è un artigiano?&lt;br /&gt;Il fumettista è un libero professionista?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il fumettista vende diritti d'autore?&lt;br /&gt;Il fumettista vende prodotti finiti?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un colorista, che compie una parte intermedia del lavoro necessario tra l'idea e la stampa, svolge un lavoro classificabile come "opera dell'ingegno"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La questione non è una futile catalogazione da entomologo, ma crea differenze maledettamente concrete nei diritti e negli obblighi che il fumettista ha con il fisco, con l'INPS e, naturalmente, con l'editore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A questo aggiungiamo anche la spinosa faccenda che, alla mancanza di un contratto scritto, spesso si tende a classificare i lavori come Co.Co.O., anche quando il lavoro del fumettista è, beh, un vero lavoro, a tempo pieno, che richiede una preparazione specifica, non diversamente dal mestiere dello scrittore o del pittore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aggiungiamo che la normativa italiana sul diritto d'autore è orribilmente vecchia e lacunosa, e che tutte le raccolte di leggi (non solo sul diritto d'autore) online sono parziali, poco aggiornate, e tutte non ufficiali.&lt;br /&gt;Le migliori sono quelle aggiornate da società private specializzate, per le quali bisogna pagare gli aggiornamenti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inizia una nuova grande missione: cercare di capirci qualcosa!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nel prossimo episodio: Cos'è una Pensione e chi ha diritto ad averla? &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Sorry, this post is Italian only as it is about Italian legislation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Can an Italian comic artist go into retirement?

Ecco la principale fonte di  malcontento tra i disegnatori: alle fiere regalano infaticabilmente la  loro professionalità e la loro arte per poi vederla svenduta su  internet: spesso vediamo disegni “svenduti” anche per 5 euro, in questo  modo anche il talento del disegnatore è svalutato. Tutto il loro lavoro,  la loro esperienza, la loro fatica vengono svenduti per niente. Questa  situazione marcia parallelamente a quella in cui un disegnatore si trova  a dover rispondere a quesiti umilianti del tipo: “Tu chi sei? Che  fumetti hai fatto? Ah! Allora mi fai un disegno?” per poi magari vedere  il foglio accartocciato da qualche parte perché in fondo averlo non era  poi così importante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La Scuola Internazionale di Comics vuole  sostenere e accompagnare i disegnatori in una rivoluzione di questo  sistema che sminuisce la loro professionalità, per cercare di dare il  giusto peso alla loro arte.&lt;br /&gt;Per questo chiediamo a tutti quelli che  condividono questo pensiero e che intendono attivamente spalleggiarci in  questa battaglia educativa, di sottoscrivere questo documento per far  sentire la loro voce e di rifiutarsi, nelle manifestazioni a venire, di  prestare la loro opera gratuitamente.&lt;br /&gt;Da ora in poi chi vorrà un  disegno potrà averlo dietro compenso o dopo aver acquistato le  pubblicazioni dei disegnatori. La Scuola Internazionale di Comics da  parte sua, si impegnerà a far circolare questo documento e inviarlo poi  ai media, agli organizzatori delle fiere e alle case editrici, ai suoi  studenti e a tutti quelli che seguono le attività della scuola perché  chi lo condivide possa sottoscriverlo.&lt;br /&gt;Per dare l’avvio a questa  nuova tendenza, noi della Scuola Internazionale di Comics, in occasione  di Lucca Comics chiederemo ai nostri insegnanti di esporre il loro  tariffario quando disegneranno per i fan presso il nostro stand. E  chiederemo loro di applicare senza timore le tariffe che hanno  stabilito.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La campagna vede il contributo dell’avvocato Eleonora  Trigari, che si esprime a favore del manifesto. Eleonora è un avvocato  milanese esperta in diritto d’autore che presta la sua opera ad artisti  su tutto il territorio nazionale.&lt;br /&gt;Qui di seguito potete leggere il  suo contributo:  “Molto correttamente la Scuola Internazionale di Comics  utilizza l’espressione “svalutazione culturale”.&lt;br /&gt;In Italia all’arte  sequenziale non viene infatti riconosciuto un adeguato valore artistico,  come invece avviene in altri Paesi. Ciò nonostante lo studio, la  passione e la dedizione che stanno dietro alle opere a fumetto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Si  consideri che in Italia il fumetto non gode nemmeno di una tutela  legislativa specifica. Esiste una proposta di riforma volta ad  introdurre una disciplina ad hoc per le opere a fumetto, ma si tratta di  un progetto tuttora arenato (disegno di legge n. 3298 del Senato della  Repubblica, XIV legislatura, “Protezione del diritto d’autore delle  opere a fumetti“ - comunicato alla Presidenza l’11 febbraio 2005-).  Sarebbe invece di grande importanza una riforma, tra l’altro, per il  valore in sé dell’espresso riconoscimento, anche a livello legislativo,  del fumetto come forma d’arte. Infatti, le conseguenze della  svalutazione culturale dell’’arte sequenziale sono molteplici.  Innanzitutto, ciò incide, in negativo, sulle condizioni lavorative dei  disegnatori.&lt;br /&gt;Basti pensare agli innumerevoli contratti a progetto che  malcelano rapporti di lavoro subordinato e che i disegnatori,  soprattutto i giovani artisti, si trovano “costretti” a sottoscrivere  pur di poter lavorare. Oppure al mancato riconoscimento della proprietà  degli originali delle tavole da parte delle case editrici. Gli stessi  disegnatori sono direttamente vittime della svalutazione culturale  dell’arte sequenziale, in quanto molto spesso non sono consapevoli dei  diritti loro spettanti e non sono quindi in grado di tutelarli.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ne  è un esempio palpabile il fatto che molti pensano che una volta firmato  il contratto di edizione tutti i diritti di autore si trasferiscano  automaticamente alla casa editrice, mentre non è necessariamente così.&lt;br /&gt;Occorre  quindi che i disegnatori per primi rivendichino a gran voce la dignità  artistica delle loro opere e il valore del loro lavoro e che si  impegnino attivamente per la tutela dei loro diritti, dei quali  anzitutto devono prendere coscienza. Tutti coloro i quali hanno a cuore  la cultura e l’arte dovrebbero appoggiarli, perché tutto ciò che non  favorisce la diffusione dell’arte e della cultura è di per sé negativo  dal punto di vista sociale. “&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Avv. Eleonora Trigari&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*********************************************************&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Sorry, I'll only translate this post in English upon request, since it has strictly to do with the situation of comics in Italy. It possibly never has been brilliant, but nowadays comic artists in Italy are barely able (if at all) to make a living. The lack of specific laws regarding the matter, the general crisis which affects every kind of entertainment inckuding comics themselves, the extremely low pays (when they pay at all) most publishing houses offer and many other factors make it so. An Italian comic artist must often choose between having a day or part-time "normal" job and not being able to afford a mortgage, a rent, a holiday, his/her wedding, a family. And this is very, very sad.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-7658892333396743206?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/7658892333396743206/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=7658892333396743206&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/7658892333396743206'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/7658892333396743206'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2010/10/campagna-di-sensibilizzazione-per-la.html' title='CAMPAGNA DI SENSIBILIZZAZIONE PER LA DIFESA DEL LAVORO DEI DISEGNATORI DI FUMETTO'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-6932566402972959252</id><published>2010-10-19T12:06:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-01-29T19:02:28.271+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cose belle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lezioni'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photoshop'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fumetto'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='digitale'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='disegni di altri'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='evviva'/><title type='text'>Comics Experience e Batman!</title><content type='html'>&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TUMdo-i1ozI/AAAAAAAAAa4/h4Z5OrfzLOc/s1600/BATMAN_dominance-of-hue.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TUMdo-i1ozI/AAAAAAAAAa4/h4Z5OrfzLOc/s320/BATMAN_dominance-of-hue.jpg" width="210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Pencils: Tony Daniel &lt;br /&gt;Ink: Jonathan Glapion&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TL1fMdpxrpI/AAAAAAAAAZU/gbMNepbIklo/s1600/BATMAN_dominance-of-hue.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Qualche settimana fa ho avuto la fortuna di scoprire - più o meno per caso - il sito &lt;a href="http://www.comicsexperience.com/"&gt;Comics Experience&lt;/a&gt; e soprattutto i loro &lt;a href="http://www.comicsexperience.com/courses.html"&gt;corsi online&lt;/a&gt;. Ho così deciso di fare il corso di colorazione base, e l'ho trovato davvero ottimo. &lt;br /&gt;A insegnare è &lt;a href="http://www.sotocolor.com/Site/Welcome.html"&gt;Chris Sotomayor&lt;/a&gt;, colorista Marvel, e c'è la possibilità di vedere le proprie tavole corrette settimana dopo settimana davanti a te. Durante l'ultima lezione è intervenuto &lt;a href="http://www.sinccolor.com/Sinccolor.com/sinccolor.com.html"&gt;Alex Sinclair&lt;/a&gt;, noto soprattutto per il suo lavoro su Batman. &lt;br /&gt;Ho imparato moltissimo, mi sono divertita e spero che si noti tramite i miglioramenti.&lt;br /&gt;Unico lato negativo, le lezioni iniziavano alle 21 Eastern Standard Time visto che venivano trasmesse da New York. Le tre del mattino non sono precisamente un orario che favorisce la concentrazione!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;A few weeks ago I&amp;nbsp; had the good luck to discover - more or less by chance - the &lt;a href="http://www.comicsexperience.com/"&gt;Comics Experience&lt;/a&gt; website, and their &lt;a href="http://www.comicsexperience.com/courses.html"&gt;online courses&lt;/a&gt;. I picked the course that interested me the most, basic comic coloring, and I found it really good.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Teacher is &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sotocolor.com/Site/Welcome.html" style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Chris Sotomayor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;, colorist for Marvel, and one can see his pages being critiqued and corrected before his eyes week after week, which is enormously useful towards learning. The last lesson saw &lt;a href="http://www.sinccolor.com/Sinccolor.com/sinccolor.com.html"&gt;Alex Sinclair&lt;/a&gt; of Batman fame joining us. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;I learned a lot, had a lot of fun, and I hope the results show through my progress.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Only setback is, lessons started at 9pm EST as they were being broadcast from New York. 3am is not quite the best time to favor concentration!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-6932566402972959252?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/6932566402972959252/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=6932566402972959252&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6932566402972959252'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6932566402972959252'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2010/10/comics-experience-e-batman.html' title='Comics Experience e Batman!'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TUMdo-i1ozI/AAAAAAAAAa4/h4Z5OrfzLOc/s72-c/BATMAN_dominance-of-hue.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-6100914981757993460</id><published>2010-09-09T12:25:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2010-09-09T12:25:01.602+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cose belle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fotografia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ROTFL'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='off topic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Conigli'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='evviva'/><title type='text'>Coniglietti a go-go!</title><content type='html'>Oggi ho deciso di deliziarvi con delle foto di Mango, lo gnappetto che da fine maggio è arrivato a casa nostra per fare compagnia alla nostra splendida (e stronziglia) Maia.

Adoro lo stile dei suoi lavori e il suo modo di usare l'acquerello, leggermente differente da quello classico, ma molto efficace per le illustrazioni - in particolar modo per il fantasy. &lt;br /&gt;Ho messo in pratica le sue tecniche e i suoi consigli, e il risultato è questo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Last weekend I was lucky enough to attend a watercolor workshop in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aachen"&gt;Aachen&lt;/a&gt; (known in Italy as Aquisgrana and in France as Aix-la-Chapelle) held by Jenny Dolfen, known on DeviantArt as &lt;a href="http://gold-seven.deviantart.com/"&gt;GoldSeven&lt;/a&gt;. I love the style of her works and her way to use watercolors, slightly different from what is classically taught but very effective for illustration, especially fantasy illustration.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;I tried to put into practice her techniques and advice, and here is the result.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TH4BG4m0GcI/AAAAAAAAAXU/A4ysYINO3h0/s1600/wolf_something_girl_by_koshiatar.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TH4BG4m0GcI/AAAAAAAAAXU/A4ysYINO3h0/s320/wolf_something_girl_by_koshiatar.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Originariamente doveva essere una sorta di donna-lupo, ma la forma degli occhi e delle orecchie ha finito per risultare molto più felina che lupesca. Devo riprovarci con delle foto di riferimento!&lt;br /&gt;Desidero ringraziare ancora Jenny e gli altri partecipanti al workshop - oltre naturalmente al mio ragazzo, che mi ha accompagnata nel viaggio - per questo bel weekend e per le cose che ho imparato e che spero di poter mettere ancora di più a frutto. Grazie! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: orange;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Originally she was supposed to be some kind of wolf girl, but the shape of the ears and eyes in the end resulted so much more cat-like than wolf.like. I need to try again using references!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;I wish to once more thank Jenny and the other participants to the workshop - including my boyfriend, who accompanied me in the trip - for this nice and fun weekend and for the things that I learned, which I hope to put to use even more very soon.

Ho cercato di inchiostrare in uno stile Art Nouveau, mi piace giocare con lo spessore della linea e forse anzi dovrei provare a osare di più. Il blu dei capelli mi piace (ovviamente... ho una passione per i capelli blu, se non si fosse capito!) ma credo non armonizzi bene con il resto. Credo che dovrà cambiare... Da notare come inizialmente non sapessi cosa far galleggiare tra le mani, e infine ho scelto un coniglio! I coniglietti ormai sono la mia passione... già da tempo sono diventati due, e presto andranno a vivere insieme! Per ora si danno solo i bacini attraverso le sbarre del recinto e sono davvero teneri. Ma lui ha ancora le sue prugnette pelose (lei è già sterilizzata invece) e dovrà aspettare ancora un po'...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #3d85c6;"&gt;Here are the flat colors! I tried to ink in an Art Nouveau style, I love playing with the thickness of the lines and perhaps I should try to do that even more.&amp;nbsp; I love the shade of blue of the hair (I love blue hair, I think it's quite clear by now!) but I don't think it fits in well with the rest so it will probably have to shift into something else. Notice how at the beginning I wasn't sure about what to put in her hands, and in the end I chose a rabbit! I love bunnies, I have two now and they're scheduled to be bonded and go live together. For now they only give kisses to each other through the bars of the pen and they're really lovely. But he's still got his furry teabags (she is already spayed) so he'll have to wait a few more days...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TF-prOv3xNI/AAAAAAAAAWY/vE0NdANv0P0/s1600/38834_445963673054_743023054_6219501_3610867_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/TF-prOv3xNI/AAAAAAAAAWY/vE0NdANv0P0/s320/38834_445963673054_743023054_6219501_3610867_n.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In questo lungo tempo in cui non ho postato naturalmente non sono stata con le mani in mano, ma ho lavorato alacremente su Bluejaye.

proprio ieri sera.&lt;br /&gt;Non vi farò una recensione del film, su Internet ne potrete trovare parecchie e probabilmente migliori di quel che potrei scrivere. Dirò solo che il film merita la visione, nonostante sia chiaramente rivolto al grande pubblico e per questo prevedibile in molti passaggi. Soprattutto gli artisti non dovrebbero mancare di vederlo, perché visivamente è vivido, dettagliato tanto nella creazione dei personaggi che delle ambientazioni, ricco di immaginazione, e spesso si ha l'impressione di "trovarsi" lì. A me è piaciuto molto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se volete altre immagini del film ad alta risoluzione, potete trovarle &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/officialavatarmovie/"&gt;qui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I saw &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar_%282009_film%29"&gt;Avatar&lt;/a&gt; last night.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I'm not going to write a review of the movie for this blog; there are plenty on the Internet and most are probably better than whatever I could write. However, I will say that the movie deserves to be seen, despite being clearly aimed at a wide public and therefore predictable from time to time. Artists especially should not neglect to watch it, because it is visually bright and lifelike, detailed both in character and setting creation, imaginative, and you often feel like you "are" there. I loved it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can find more high-resolution images &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/officialavatarmovie/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;here&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-8364614536854954730?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/8364614536854954730/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=8364614536854954730&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/8364614536854954730'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/8364614536854954730'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2010/01/avatar.html' title='Avatar!'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/S0WjlIr_iDI/AAAAAAAAAQI/oExyNG4RFks/s72-c/4116455578_1f8d781f66_b.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-1455459109402369901</id><published>2009-12-31T19:06:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-12-31T19:21:35.643+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='appunti a me stessa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='riflessioni'/><title type='text'>Buoni propositi per il 2010 in ordine sparso</title><content type='html'>&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rimettermi a studiare giapponese&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Studiare anatomia&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Spendere meno e mettere via un po' di soldini&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Disegnare almeno un breve fumetto&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Fare un portfolio&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Diventare una fotografa migliore&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Riprendere in mano gli acquerelli&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Migliorare l'autostima&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avere più costanza&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tra un anno ne riparliamo.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;

La mailing list ha recentemente compiuto cinque anni e ha chiesto ai suoi lettori che siano anche disegnatori o sceneggiatori un omaggio attinente per festeggiare. Sono felice e orgogliosa di aver partecipato, assieme alle bravissime ragazze di &lt;a href="http://www.edenstudio.it/"&gt;Eden Studio&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;a href="http://francescadasacco.blogspot.com/"&gt;Francesca Da Sacco&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://michela-dasacco-art.blogspot.com/"&gt;Michela Da Sacco&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://manuela-soriani.blogspot.com/"&gt;Manuela Soriani&lt;/a&gt;) e &lt;a href="http://mattiabulgarelli.blogspot.com/"&gt;Mattia Bulgarelli&lt;/a&gt;.

The mailing list has recently celebrated its fifth birthday, and its staff has asked to those of the readers who are also storywriters and comic artistis for a hommage.

Mi sono divertita moltissimo a collaborare con loro, si sono dimostrate professionali, disponibili e gentili, e non vedo l'ora di poter ripetere l'esperienza. Inchiostrare e colorare i disegni di altri è qualcosa che mi è sempre piaciuto molto e mi piacerebbe farlo anche a livello professionale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E la ragazza con Nausicaa e Legs chi è?&lt;br /&gt;Si tratta di &lt;a href="http://jennyeverywhere.net/"&gt;Jenny Everywhere&lt;/a&gt;, il primo personaggio open source mai creato: Jenny esiste in ogni modo e in ogni realtà e può viaggiare tra essi, e quindi trovarsi ovunque desideri... in qualsiasi storia!

E allora se Jenny vi piace, che cosa aspettate?&lt;br /&gt;Ora vi saluto che sto per andare a combattere con Manga Studio: il fumetto digitale non è precisamente comodissimo da imparare, ma sono convinta che abbia dei grossi vantaggi. Alla prossima!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;They're amazing comic artists, aren't they? I had lots of fun collaborating with them, and they were very professional, receptive and kind. I wish to repeate such an experience as soon as possible! I've always loved inking and coloring other people's works, and I'd love to do that on a professional level.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; And who is the girl with Nausicaa and Legs?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; She is &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://jennyeverywhere.net/"&gt;Jenny Everywhere&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, the first open source character ever created: Jenny exists in every world and every reality and can shift between them, and be wherever and whenever she wishes to be... and in any story!

Sono sempre stata discretamente dotata. Però c'era sempre qualcosa di più importante a cui pensare prima.&lt;br /&gt;Quando sei come me, il disegno ti tormenta. Non importa cosa succede che ti scombussola e ti fa mettere giù la matita per qualche tempo: appena stai bene, lui si ripresenta e chiede attenzione.&lt;br /&gt;Arriva il giorno che ti guardi intorno e ti accorgi che il disegno come hobby non ti basta più. E che nel frattempo, tutti quelli che avevano le idee più chiare di te si sono dati da fare e hanno superato quel livello da un pezzo.&lt;br /&gt;Adesso non sono un traduttore, come volevo diventare all'università. La mia laurea da sola non me l'ha garantito e per l'ultimo passo - studiare la lingua nel suo paese di origine - mancano i soldi, ma anche una motivazione che mi è scappata e chissà quando tornerà (forse proprio per colpa dei soldi).&lt;br /&gt;E non sono un artista. C'è chi è in grado, da autodidatta quasi completo, di raggiungere un livello professionale o semiprofessionale con i propri disegni al punto da arrivare alla pubblicazione regolare da parte di un editore serio. Io però non sono così. Ho bisogno che mi venga insegnato, di venire costantemente seguita e motivata, che mi si dica almeno da dove partire e con che ordine procedere. Le lezioni di nudo dal vero mi hanno aiutata molto, ma era prevedibile che non sarebbero più bastate.&lt;br /&gt;Trovarmi a invidiare disegnatori che hanno dieci anni meno di me non è precisamente incoraggiante e spesso mi chiedo se valga davvero la pena di tormentarmi in questo modo.&lt;br /&gt;Frequentare una scuola non è facile dal momento che non conosco bene la lingua del Paese in cui vivo e mi è già successo di ricevere risposte negative per questo solo motivo. Ma se tornassi in Italia e non trovassi lavoro - o lo trovassi precario e malpagato come tante, troppe persone di mia conoscenza - con che soldi me la pagherei?&lt;br /&gt;Insomma, crisi crisi crisi... niente di quello che disegno in questo periodo mi piace e la voglia cala a picco. Mi sento demotivata e inadeguata. Help...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;I have said this before, but now it's official and admitting it will hopefully be the first step to finding a solution.&lt;br /&gt;I've always been drawing. I've always been quite gifted. But there always was something "more important" to take care of at that moment.&lt;br /&gt;When you are like me, drawing sort of torments you constantly. It may happen that you feel shaken for a while and momentarily stop, but then as soon as you feel better drawing is there again, pulling at you.&lt;br /&gt;The day comes that you look around you, and realize that drawing as a hobby is no longer enough for you. And when you do, you see that in the meanwhile all those who had clearer ideas than you had have been working hard, and are long past that level.&lt;br /&gt;Now, I'm not a translator as I wanted to be while I was studying at the University. My degree alone couldn't make me become one, and the last step needed - studying the language in its country of origin and passing a proficiency test - requires money that I don't have, and a motivation that has fled, possibly because of the knowledge of not having enough money.&lt;br /&gt;And I'm not an artist. There are self-taught people who can, with their forces alone, reach a professional level such that they are published regularly by a serious publisher. I am not like that. I need to be taught, to be constantly followed and motivated, to be told at least where to start from and in which order to go. Nude drawing lessons helped me a great deal, but it was obvious they would no longer suffice.&lt;br /&gt;Envying artists that are professionals at ten years younger than I am is not precisely encouraging to me. I often wonder whether it's really worth it to torment myself like this.&lt;br /&gt;Going to a school is an option, but it's a difficult one. I don't know this country's language, and I've been refused by several people already for this sole reason. But if I went back to Italy to find only a precarious, badly-payed job, like too many people I know, what would I pay the school with?&lt;br /&gt;So I'm in a big crisis. Nothing I draw lately looks good to me, and so the will to draw flees. I feel demotivated and inadequate. Help...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="Breese award" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/BreeseAward.png" align="cssCenter" /&gt;Parlando d'altro, ho ricevuto, e ritiro volentieri, un piccolo premio da &lt;a href="http://brianluesang.blogspot.com/"&gt;Brian Lue Sang&lt;/a&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;Dal blog di &lt;a href="http://peterbreese.blogspot.com/"&gt;Peter Breese&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The coveted Breese Award is given to six inspirational individuals; since most blog awards cater to odd numbers, this particular award was designed for the more even keeled folk.

E siccome mi è arrivato lo scanner nuovo ed è una bomba, non potevo che bullarmene. ù.ù&lt;br /&gt;Mi sono accorta che non ho cancellato il logo impresso Fabriano ma chissenefrega.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mi piacciono un sacchissimo le foto vintage. Questo in realtà altro non è che un ritratto reinterpretato di Lucienne Herval, un'attrice degli anni '30 - probabilmente francese - su cui non sono riuscita a trovare quasi nulla.&lt;br /&gt;Su &lt;a href="http://lorivintage55stock.deviantart.com"&gt;Lorivintage55stock on deviantART&lt;/a&gt; ci sono decine e decine di foto come quella che ho usato io risalenti dagli ultimi anni dell'800 agli anni '50; dateci un'occhiata se vi piace, è una raccolta che merita. E soprattutto &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;se ne usate qualcuna, contattate l'autrice della raccolta e fateglielo sapere; le farà piacere. Le mette a disposizione a certe condizioni quindi accertatevi di leggerle e rispettarle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La maggior parte di quelle bellissime attrici sono oggi pressoché del tutto sconosciute. È affascinante immaginare la vita dietro a quei ritratti e inquietante come il tempo abbia inghiottito completamente la loro storia, cancellandola e lasciandoci solo con poche immagini per tentare di ricordare. Miliardi di vite umane sono passate così, senza lasciare traccia alcuna sulla Terra. Dov'è andata la loro vita, la loro esperienza, dove sono le loro anime composte da tutto ciò che erano, sapevano e facevano? Spesso me lo chiedo...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Since lately I can't draw anything that suits my taste, I leave you with a picture from a while ago. And since I have a brand new Canon scanner that was delivered today, I couldn't but flaunt it. *_*&lt;br /&gt;I forgot to erase the Fabriano logo (an Italian brand of drawing paper) but who cares.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm in love with vintage photographs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Actually, this is the re-interpreted portrait of Lucienne Herval, an actress from the 30's - probably French - about whom I couldn't find much information. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;On &lt;a href="http://lorivintage55stock.deviantart.com"&gt;Lorivintage55stock on deviantART&lt;/a&gt; you will find tens and tens of photos like the one I used, from the last years of the 1800's to the 1950's. Catch a glimpse of it if you like them, it's really worth it. Just, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;if you use any of those for your works, let her know&lt;/span&gt;, she'll be pleased. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;She makes them available at certain conditions so make sure to read them, understand them and respect them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of those beautiful actresses are totally unknown to us today. It's fascinating to think about the lives behind those portraits and unsettling to think how time swallowed all that they and their lives were, leaving us with only a few images to try to recall. Where have gone their lives, their experiences, their very souls mad with all that they were, did and knew? I often wonder...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-2626448636823848842?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/2626448636823848842/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=2626448636823848842&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/2626448636823848842'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/2626448636823848842'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2009/03/signorina-liberty-con-il-super-scanner.html' title='Signorina liberty con il super scanner nuovo *_*'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/th_Aura-02.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-8319583394716510535</id><published>2009-03-26T21:19:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-03-31T09:26:32.361+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photoshop'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='copic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sfogheria'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='non ci siamo proprio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='personaggio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='riflessioni'/><title type='text'>Scazzantibus</title><content type='html'>&lt;img alt="scazzantibus" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/scazzantibus.jpg" align="cssCenter" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un pomeriggio di scazzo totale e una manciata di Copic, che devo ancora imparare a usare bene.

A guy calling himself Mangasprai has proclaimed himself a sort of so-called "pure manga style" paladin, claiming that "hybrid style sucks". What he intends for hybrid style is, he says, "manga-French mixed style", quoting as main example Alessandro Barbucci of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_Doll"&gt;Skydoll&lt;/a&gt; fame, with total disregard for the obvious Disney ancestry that Skydoll very much shows.&lt;br /&gt;He even started hate campaigns &lt;a href="http://mangasprai.deviantart.com/art/Anti-Hybrid-Campaign-104272184"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://ildisegno.blogspot.com/2008/11/no-ibrido.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.psdrevolution.it/forum/index.php?showtopic=34082&amp;amp;pid=451143&amp;amp;mode=threaded&amp;amp;show=&amp;amp;st=0"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and most notably &lt;a href="http://community.disegnomanga.it/forum/topics/cosa-ci-fanno-degli-ibridi-su"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, and who knows where else. Not happy with that, he has taken to commenting to other people's drawings saying things like "This drawing's very nice, too bad that it's a bit too hybrid..."&lt;br /&gt;And now Barbucci himself has heard about it and has replied &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZyON1aiqhkk/Saxq9zwgjjI/AAAAAAAAAZE/MPNJtI3nawY/S1600-R/testata+new.jpg"&gt;in his own personal way&lt;/a&gt;... XD (the balloon on the far left reads "Hybrid sucks!")&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congratulations! Not everyone gets to be made fun of by Alessandro Barbucci in person. :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Needless to say that I hold Barbucci in high esteem, he's one of my reference authors - and now even more.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Update: They told me that "capullo" means "idiot" or "bollock".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-5306464046217507828?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/5306464046217507828/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=5306464046217507828&amp;isPopup=true' title='8 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/5306464046217507828'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/5306464046217507828'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2009/03/il-terribile-iiiibbbrrrridooooh.html' title='Il terribile IIIIBBBRRRRIDOOOOH!'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/th_testatanew.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-5772052364947944083</id><published>2009-03-23T21:19:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-03-23T21:27:23.023+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SAI'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cose belle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sfogheria'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ROTFL'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='personaggio'/><title type='text'>Animale raro</title><content type='html'>Finalmente, dopo anni, sono riuscita a catturare una sua immagine.&lt;br /&gt;Non è stato facile.&lt;br /&gt;La maledetta mi sfuggiva sempre.

Perdonate la bassa qualità, ma chi vorrà vedere l'illustrazione in tutta la sua gloria non avrà che da aspettare e acquistare il libro. ;-) E a parte questo, il mio scanner è un multifunzione, ossia uno di quegli apparecchi che fanno un sacco di cose senza farne davvero bene nemmeno una.&lt;br /&gt;Matite acquerellabili e acquerello su cartoncino.&lt;br /&gt;(&lt;a href="http://hellevation.splinder.com/"&gt;Enry&lt;/a&gt;: "Da bambina avevo un costume da damina uguale a quello, anche con gli stessi colori!"

Ossia quando un artista è incapace di apprezzare il suo stesso lavoro anche quando tutti gli dicono che è bello. Perché a me questa tavola ha fatto disperare, mi sembra ultrapiatta e con la testa enorme. Con la differenza che Mirka è brava DAVVERO.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Here you have a small preview from the cover of &lt;a href="http://veneziane.altervista.org/"&gt;Emozioni veneziane&lt;/a&gt;, the book&lt;br /&gt;by Anna Castelli that I proudly illustrated. Sorry for the low quality, but thos who want to see the illustration in its full glory just need to wait and purchase the book - and my scanner pretty much sucks, too, being a multi-purpose combo, which means it will do everything while excelling at nothing.&lt;br /&gt;Watercolor pencils and watercolor on thick paper.&lt;br /&gt;(&lt;a href="http://hellevation.splinder.com/"&gt;Enry&lt;/a&gt;: "As a kid I used to have a carnival costume just like that, colors and all!" XD)&lt;br /&gt;Oh, and I decided to invent a new artist's disease: the &lt;a href="http://ivorysoul.blogspot.com/"&gt;Mirka&lt;/a&gt; syndrome. Which is, when an artist can't appreciate his/her own work, even when everybody around them tells them it's pretty. Because this illustration made me desperate. I think it looks totally flat, and she's got a giant head.&lt;br /&gt;The difference with me is, Mirka draws REALLY well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-7067034340244591433?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/7067034340244591433/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=7067034340244591433&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/7067034340244591433'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/7067034340244591433'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2009/03/emozioni-veneziane-anteprima.html' title='Emozioni veneziane: anteprima'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/th_emozioniveneziane.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-7651685023632740845</id><published>2009-03-13T16:52:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-03-13T17:05:26.275+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='incrediBBile ma vero'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cose belle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cinema'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='e adesso rido io'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ROTFL'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='evviva'/><title type='text'>Ci mancava pure questo XD</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="640" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/uWMgqPP8qIU&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;color1=0x006699&amp;amp;color2=0x54abd6"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/uWMgqPP8qIU&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;color1=0x006699&amp;amp;color2=0x54abd6" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Credo che non finirò mai di stupirmi.&lt;br /&gt;(Non ho aggiornato con dei disegni ultimamente perché ho avuto da fare un'illustrazione che mi ha succhiato il sangue.

Be', se il capufficio, il prof o chiunque altro vi sorprende in flagrante, se ne esce con frasi del tipo "smettila di distrarti a quel modo e presta attenzione a ciò che dico", adesso potete zittirlo con il supporto della scienza: spiegando che riuscite a stare attenti proprio grazie a quei disegnini senza senso.&lt;br /&gt;                                       &lt;br /&gt;Più attenti, concentrati e mnemonici, in effetti, di chi gli scarabocchi mentre gli altri parlano non li fa. Lo afferma un esperimento condotto da ricercatori del reparto scienze cognitive del Medical Research Council della Cambridge University. Scarabocchiare mentre si ascolta, affermano gli studiosi, aiuta a ricordare i dettagli: dunque l'esatto contrario del diffuso luogo comune secondo cui lo scarabocchio spinge la mente a perdersi nel vuoto.&lt;br /&gt;                                       &lt;br /&gt;Per verificarlo, gli scienziati inglesi hanno dato un banale compito ripetitivo, in pratica disegnare scarabocchi, a un gruppo di volontari che doveva contemporaneamente ascoltare un noioso messaggio telefonico. Confrontando la capacità di ricordare il contenuto del messaggio con un gruppo di ascolto che non era stato invitato a scarabocchiare, si è scoperto che lo scarabocchio aumenta la memoria del 29 per cento. Interrogati al termine dell'esperimento, senza sapere in che cosa consisteva o cosa cercava di misurare, coloro che scarabocchiavano hanno ricordato mediamente 7,5 nomi di persone, di luoghi e altri dettagli secondari del messaggio, mentre coloro che non scarabocchiavano ne hanno ricordati soltanto 5,8.&lt;br /&gt;                                                                               &lt;!--inserto--&gt;&lt;div id="adv180x150m"&gt;&lt;!-- OAS AD 'Middle' - da inserire per 200x200 --&gt; &lt;!--script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"&gt;OAS_RICH('Middle');&lt;/script--&gt;  &lt;script language="javascript1.1" src="http://www.repubblica.it/javascript/adtags/jx_speciale.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;script language="JavaScript" src="http://oas.repubblica.it/RealMedia/ads/adstream_jx.ads/repubblica.it/nz/scienze/interna/1175005629@Middle"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--/inserto--&gt;                                         &lt;br /&gt;"Se una persona svolge un'attività passiva, come quella di ascoltare una noiosa conversazione telefonica, può cominciare a sognare ad occhi aperti", commenta il professor Jackie Andrade, della facoltà di psicologia dell'università di Plymouth. "E sognare a occhi aperti induce a distrarsi da quello che si sta facendo, con il risultato che lo fai meno bene. Svolgere contemporaneamente un semplice compito, come appunto è scarabocchiare, può essere sufficiente a interrompere il sogno a occhi aperti senza compromettere la prestazione che si sta compiendo".&lt;br /&gt;In parole povere, scarabocchiare permette di non distrarsi e aiuta a seguire meglio il filo del discorso.&lt;br /&gt;                                       &lt;br /&gt;Non è la prima volta che vengono messi in luce i benefici dello scarabocchio. Un libro diventato un best-seller in Francia e pubblicato anche in Italia nel 2007, "Quaderno di scarabocchi per chi si annoia in ufficio", sostiene che scarabocchiare è una terapia anti-stress, fornendo perfino un sito Internet, &lt;a href="http://swarmsketch.com/"&gt;&lt;u&gt;www.swarmsketch.com&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, per chi desidera farlo sul web anziché su carta. In un altro volume, uscito nel nostro paese nel 2005, "I disegni dell'inconscio", gli psicologi Evi Crotti e Alberto Magni elencano sei diverse categorie di scarabocchi, ciascuna rivelatrice di un particolare stato d'animo: per cui ad esempio chi tratteggia labirinti sta cercando una via d'uscita da una situazione di stallo, chi disegna palme vorrebbe trovare un'oasi di pace, chi fa schizzi di un'automobile rivela un desiderio erotico non soddisfatto.&lt;br /&gt;                                       &lt;br /&gt;                                                           &lt;!-- do nothing --&gt; Lo scarabocchio, del resto, è vecchio come l'uomo: ci guarda dalle pareti delle caverne della preistoria, rispecchia l'animo del genio nei taccuini di Leonardo da Vinci, diventa pop-art nei moderni graffiti di strada. E poi ci sono gli scarabocchi d'autore: le spirali di Balzac, gli anelli di Beethoven, gli animali immaginari di Malraux. Senza dimenticare gli scarabocchi tracciati da molti dei nostri deputati durante le sedute alla Camera: sebbene venga il sospetto che, nel loro caso, lo facciano sperando effettivamente di distrarsi, mica per prestare più attenzione.&lt;br /&gt;                                                           &lt;!-- do nothing --&gt;                      &lt;!-- fine TESTO --&gt;&lt;/div&gt;            &lt;span class="date"&gt;(&lt;i&gt;&lt;!-- inizio DATA --&gt;27 febbraio 2009&lt;!-- fine DATA --&gt;&lt;/i&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;E adesso tutti quei professori del liceo che mi rimproveravano perché disegnavo a lezione, salvo poi scoprire che ero attenta, devono ammettere di avermi maltrattata per niente.

Most people also hate that other closely related species: the fidgeter, who spins pens or re-orders papers or plays with his phone during meetings. (I stand guilty as charged. On occasion, I have also been known to whisper.) We doodlers, fidgeters and whisperers always get the same jokey, passive-aggressive line from the authority figure at the front of the room: "I'm sorry, are we bothering you?" How droll. But the underlying message is clear: pay attention.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;!-- Begin Article Side Bar --&gt;   &lt;!-- End Article Side Bar --&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;But I've never stopped fidgeting, and I've always thought I walked out of meetings remembering all the relevant parts. Now I have proof. In a delightful new study, which will be published in the journal &lt;i&gt;Applied Cognitive Psychology&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.plymouth.ac.uk/pages/dynamic.asp?page=staffdetails&amp;amp;id=jandrade" target="_new"&gt;psychologist Jackie Andrade&lt;/a&gt; of the University of Plymouth in southern England showed that doodlers actually remember more than non-doodlers when asked to retain tediously delivered information, like, say, during a boring meeting or a lecture.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;In her small but rigorous study, Andrade separated 40 participants into two groups of 20. All 40 had just finished an unrelated psychological experiment, and many were thinking of going home (or to the pub). They were asked, instead, whether they wouldn't mind spending another five minutes helping with research. The participants were led into a quiet room and then asked to listen to a two-and-a-half-minute tape that they were told would be "rather dull."&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;That's a shocking bit of understatement. The tape — which Guantanamo officials should consider as a method of non-lethal torture — was a rambling (and fake) voice-mail message that purports to invite the listener to a 21st-birthday party. The party's host talks about someone's sick cat; she mentions her redecorated kitchen, the weather, someone's new house in Colchester, and a vacation in Edinburgh that involved museums and rain. In all, she mentions eight place names and eight people who are definitely coming to the party.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Before the tape began, half the study participants were asked to shade in some little squares and circles on a piece of paper while they listened. They were told not to worry about being neat or quick about it. (Andrade did not instruct people explicitly to "doodle," which might have prompted self-consciousness about what constitutes an official doodle.) The other 20 didn't doodle. All the participants were asked to write down the names of those coming to the party while the tape played, which meant the doodlers switched between their doodles and their lists.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Afterward, the papers were removed and the 40 volunteers were asked to recall, verbally, the place names and the names of the people coming to the party. The doodlers creamed the non-doodlers: those who doodled during the tape recalled 7.5 pieces of information (out of the 16 total) on average, 29% more than the average of 5.8 recalled by the control group.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Why does doodling aid memory? Andrade offers several theories, but the most persuasive is that when you doodle, you don't daydream. Daydreaming may seem absentminded and pointless, but it actually demands a lot of the brain's processing power. You start daydreaming about a vacation, which leads you to think about potential destinations, how you would pay for the trip, whether you could get the flight upgraded, how you might score a bigger hotel room. These cognitions require what psychologists call "executive functioning" — for example, planning for the future and comparing costs and benefits.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Doodling, by contrast, requires very few executive resources, but just enough cognitive effort to keep you from daydreaming, which — if unchecked — will jumpstart activity in cortical networks that will keep you from remembering what's going on. Doodling forces your brain to spend just enough energy to stop it from daydreaming but not so much that you don't pay attention.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;So the next time you're doodling during a meeting — or twirling a pencil or checking the underside of the table for gum — and you hear that familiar admonition ("Are we bothering you?"), you can tell the boss with confidence that you've been paying attention to every word.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;My high school teachers would often scold me because I was drawing and doodling during lessons - until they tried to interrogate me, and were baffled by finding out that I was paying attention all the time and knew what they were talking about. Turns out they shouldn't have been so surprised. The whole lot of you mistreated me for no good reason at all! =D&lt;br /&gt;(Ok, I'll admit perhaps it would've done me some good taking notes at least once in a while.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-6581445829192552869?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/6581445829192552869/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=6581445829192552869&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6581445829192552869'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6581445829192552869'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2009/02/miscredenti-tie-avevo-ragione-io.html' title='Miscredenti, tiè!

(Le mani sono orribili, sono io la prima a dirlo.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Da quando ho iniziato a disegnare, parecchi anni fa, ogni volta che ho provato a rapportarmi al fumetto mi sono sempre dovuta periodicamente confrontare con gli stessi problemi. Non solo, come capita a tutti, la difficoltà dei fondali, delle mezzetinte, delle inquadrature, della disposizione delle vignette, ma lo stile stesso che volevo usare.&lt;br /&gt;La verità è che mi piacciono troppe cose. Sono partita dai manga, certo, ma chi pensa che siano simili gli uni agli altri si sbaglia. Pensate alla differenza tra &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yukito_Kishiro"&gt;Kishiro&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroyuki_Utatane"&gt;Utatane&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masakazu_Katsura"&gt;Katsura&lt;/a&gt; solo per fare alcuni esempi tra i più conosciuti. (Già, proprio così. Non ho mai particolarmente amato gli shōjo, pur avendone letto più di uno. Sappiate che secondo me le &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLAMP"&gt;Clamp&lt;/a&gt; non valgono come shōjo che in parte, comunque.)&lt;br /&gt;Da lì, naturalmente, ho cominciato a leggere e amare anche molte altre cose, tra cui, ça va sans dire, lo stile ibrido come l'arcinoto &lt;a href="http://skydoll.lesite.free.fr/"&gt;Skydoll&lt;/a&gt; di &lt;a href="http://alessandrobarbucci.blogspot.com/"&gt;Barbucci&lt;/a&gt; &amp;amp; &lt;a href="http://canepabarbara.blogspot.com/"&gt;Canepa&lt;/a&gt;, ma anche &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Miller"&gt;Miller&lt;/a&gt; e i supereroistici americani: tra i miei disegnatori Marvel preferiti c'è &lt;a href="http://clayton-henry.deviantart.com/"&gt;Clayton Henry&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dall'altra parte c'è l'altro mio amore visuale, la pittura: da &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelangelo_Merisi_da_Caravaggio"&gt;Caravaggio&lt;/a&gt; a &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvador_Dal%C3%AD"&gt;Dalì&lt;/a&gt;, da &lt;a href="http://www.fridakahlo.com/"&gt;Frida Kahlo&lt;/a&gt; a &lt;a href="http://www.magritte.com/"&gt;Magritte&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Chagall"&gt;Chagall&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.mucha.cz/"&gt;Mucha&lt;/a&gt;. Dalla perfezione tecnica e formale all'espressività allo stato puro alla fusione tra tecnica e delirio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E poi ci sono gli illustratori. Ci sono decine - forse centinaia - di bravi illustratori più o meno noti o di super professionisti, come &lt;a href="http://www.toddlockwood.com/"&gt;Todd Lockwood&lt;/a&gt;, che io adoro. In bilico tra le cosiddette "belle arti" e la voglia di dare un volto a personaggi e mondi frutto dell'immaginazione, sono forse quelli a cui mi sento più vicina nella mia situazione attuale di disegnatrice - altro non posso definirmi - che ama tanto le convenzioni grafiche e le potenzialità narrative del fumetto quanto l'accuratezza e l'espressività della pittura.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E allora che cosa devo fare? Qual è la strada migliore per me? Forse dovrei dire proprio "l'illustrazione", dal momento che la trovo congeniale al mio amore per il colore e il dettaglio. Però...&lt;br /&gt;Però mi attrae da pazzi anche l'aggregazione che c'è attorno al fumetto, la possibilità di narrare storie che intrattengono, divertono, catturano, appassionano, commuovono. Non mi è mai capitato di piangere davanti a un'illustrazione, ma leggendo un bel fumetto invece...&lt;br /&gt;E allora ecco che ricerco consigli, do la caccia a illustratori e fumettisti con cui sono in contatto per subissarli di domande, mi tormento ogni volta che prendo in mano la matita.&lt;br /&gt;Spero un giorno di riuscire a scegliere una strada o, molto meno probabilmente (ma che bel sogno!), di essere familiare con tutte. Ma se voi che mi leggete, i cosiddetti miei quattro lettori, i pochi ma buoni, avete un'opinione, un commento, un consiglio, datelo a una giovane artista che si sta fumando le sinapsi nel tentativo di capirsi...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;A character design sheet that I made a few days ago for fun and for practice. Her hands are horrible, I'm the first to admit that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Since I started drawing, many years ago, every time I tried to approach the comic medium I found myself face to face with the same recurring problems. Not just the same problems that everybody has, such as the difficulty in doing decent backgrounds, finding a convincing technique for shading, camera angles, panel shape, size and placement, but style itself: I couldn't decide which one to stick to.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;The truth is that I like far too many things. I started from manga, sure thing, but even thinking that they all may be similar to each other is a mistake. Think about the differences between &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yukito_Kishiro"&gt;Kishiro&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroyuki_Utatane"&gt;Utatane&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masakazu_Katsura"&gt;Katsura&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, just to name a few most famous ones. (Your assumption from this list is not uncorrect. I never had an excessive love for shōjo manga, despite having read more than one. I think that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLAMP"&gt;Clamp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; can only partially be considered as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;shōjo authors&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;From there of course, I started reading and loving many other genres, such as, ça va sans dire, the Euro-Japanese hybrid style of comics like &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://skydoll.lesite.free.fr/"&gt;Skydoll&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; by &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://alessandrobarbucci.blogspot.com/"&gt;Barbucci&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; &amp;amp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://canepabarbara.blogspot.com/"&gt;Canepa&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, but also &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Miller"&gt;Miller&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; and american superheroes: &lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://clayton-henry.deviantart.com/"&gt;Clayton Henry&lt;/a&gt; is one of my favourite Marvel comic artists.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;On the other hand, there's my other visual love: painting. From &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caravaggio"&gt;Caravaggio&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvador_Dal%C3%AD"&gt;Dalì&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, from &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://www.fridakahlo.com/"&gt;Frida Kahlo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://www.magritte.com/"&gt;Magritte&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chagall"&gt;Chagall&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://www.mucha.cz/"&gt;Mucha&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;. From technical and formal perfection to pure expression to fusion between technique and visions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;And then there are illustrators. There are hundreds of illustrators I admire out there, from relatively unkown talents to widely-known professionals such as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);" href="http://www.toddlockwood.com/"&gt;Todd Lockwood&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;, whose works I adore. Standing between so-called fine arts and the effort to give a recognizable face to characters and worlds stemming from imagination, they are probably closest to me as I am now, a girl who draws - I don't feel like calling myself anything else at the present time - who loves both the graphic and narrative potentiality of comic and  the detail, color and chance for self-expression of painting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;So what should I do? Which is the best way for me to go? Perhaps I should just say illustration, since it so well seems to go with what I visually love. But...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;But I still am in love madly with the social aggregation stemming from comics, the chance to narrate entertainig, funny, engrossing,  thrilling, moving stories. I hardly ever cried in front of an illustration, but I did in front of a good comic. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;So that's why I so eagerly look for advice, I stalk illustrators and comic artists I'm in touch with to flood them in questions, I torment myself every time I pick up a pencil.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;I hope that, some day, I will be able to choose a way, or - much less likely, but it's such a good a dream to have - to be familiar with them all. But if you, reader among those few who follow me, have an opinion, a comment, a piece of advice, please share it with a young artist girl who's smoking her brains in the effort to undestand herself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-4584310043481078466?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/4584310043481078466/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=4584310043481078466&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/4584310043481078466'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/4584310043481078466'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2009/01/io-e-il-linguaggio-dellarte-quale.html' title='Io e il linguaggio dell&apos;arte: quale scegliere?'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/th_Charadesign_by_KoShiatar.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-312972423871127993</id><published>2009-01-24T12:49:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-01-28T14:52:03.370+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painter'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fanart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photoshop'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='commissioni'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='personaggio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='digitale'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'>Celes</title><content type='html'>&lt;img alt="Celes Chere" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/Celes_by_KoShiatar.png" align="cssCenter" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Celes da Final Fantasy VI per un progetto sul web. .PNG su sfondo trasparente.

Non dite di no...&lt;br /&gt;Personalmente sono una fan sfegatata di alcune serie, tra cui (ovviamente, direte voi) &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Final Fantasy&lt;/span&gt;. E quando mi hanno lanciato la sfida... come rifiutare?! Tra l'altro il modo in cui ho iniziato a giocare a Final Fantasy è tutto particolare. Si tratta di me, non c'è da stupirsi!&lt;br /&gt;Ho scritto la mia tesi di laurea su &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Yoshitaka Amano&lt;/span&gt;, un illustratore che ho imparato ad apprezzare proprio mentre radunavo informazioni su di lui in vista della tesi. Per chi non lo sa, Amano è stato il character designer dei primi sei giochi della serie e ha illustrato anche tutti gli altri giochi della serie principale. Provate a cercare le sue interpretazioni di &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tina/Terra&lt;/span&gt; (VI), solo per fare un esempio, di &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Quina&lt;/span&gt; (IX), di &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tidus&lt;/span&gt; e &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Yuna&lt;/span&gt; (X): sono fantastiche. Ha fatto anche un mare di altra roba ma dovrei fare un blog intero solo per parlare di lui...&lt;br /&gt;Comunque per meglio documentarmi ho deciso di... esatto, di giocare a Final Fantasy. Non che fosse strettamente necessario, ma era un'ottima scusa... *COFF*&lt;br /&gt;Tra l'altro, i CD di Final Fantasy 1 e 2 per la Playstation contengono delle immagini che non sempre ho trovato sui libri, e che si possono sbloccare solo procedendo nel gioco. Immaginate questa tizia fuori di vaso che passa 6-7 ore al giorno a scrivere la tesi, e tutto il resto del tempo gioca come una disperata per sbloccare le immagini... per fortuna a un certo punto ho trovato un meraviglioso programmino per ripparle senza fare fatica, ma ho continuato a giocare. Senza parlare del fatto che, siccome su Amano non si trovava certo materiale nelle biblioteche di nipponistica, ho dovuto cercare materiale... alle fiere del fumetto. Immaginate questa mia amica che si incacchiava dicendo "Francesca gira le fiere del fumetto, e io sono qua che faccio una fatica boia e marcisco in biblioteca!" o qualcosa del genere. Un po' mi vergogno...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Did you ever imagine you were a character from a Japanese videogame? I know you did. I love a few series, including (of course) the most famous of them all, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Final Fantasy&lt;/span&gt;. So when they asked me to draw myself as a FF character, I couldn't say no.&lt;br /&gt;The way I started playing Final Fantasy games is kind of unusual, like most things concerning myself. I wrote my graduation thesis on &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Yoshitaka Amano&lt;/span&gt;, a Japanese illustrator who, as many of you will know, was character designer to the first six games in the series, and image illustrator to all following games in the main series. His renderings of &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tina/Terra&lt;/span&gt; (VI), &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Quina&lt;/span&gt; (IX) or &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tidus &lt;/span&gt;and &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Yuna&lt;/span&gt; (X) are awesome, check them out. He did lots of other stuff as well, but I should open another blog just to talk about him.&lt;br /&gt;By the way, I started playing Final Fantasy games the better to gather information about him. Not that it was absolutely necessary, but it was an excellent excuse to begin... *COUGHS*&lt;br /&gt;Also, the Playstation version of Final Fantasy I and II (Final Fantasy Origins) contains unlockable images that I didn't find in the books I had and that can only be unlocked as you play on. Imagine this girl gone nuts who spent 6 to 7 hours a day writing her thesis, and the rest of the time she spent playing desperately in order to unlock the stuff. Luckily, I finally found a lovely software that let me unlock all of them with ease. But by then the charm had been worked and I kept playing.&lt;br /&gt;It is also funny that, since I could not find material about Amano in universitary libraries, I had to go to comic markets and shops in order to find and purchase the books I needed. There was this friend of mine who was like, "Francesca goes to comic markets, and I am here having a hard time and locked up in a stinky library!" I'm a little bit ashamed if I think about it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-7407207299651596784?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/7407207299651596784/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=7407207299651596784&amp;isPopup=true' title='9 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/7407207299651596784'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/7407207299651596784'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2009/01/me-as-jrpg-character.html' title='Me as a JRPG character'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/th_KoShiatar_as_a_JRPG_character.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-5481877213954565608</id><published>2009-01-03T15:00:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-01-28T14:55:03.249+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='illustrazione'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lezioni'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='photoshop'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='matite colorate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pittura tradizionale'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'>Volpe di Capodanno</title><content type='html'>Dopo il gatto di Natale, non poteva mancare la sua degna compare: la volpe!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 255);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;After the Christmas cat, now we have its companion: the fox!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="New year's fox" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/New_Years_Fox_by_KoShiatar.jpg" align="cssCenter" /&gt;Avevo iniziato questo disegno qualche anno fa, prima di partire per l'estero, e non ero mai riuscita a finirlo.

T_T&lt;br /&gt;Altre donne spendono in scarpe e vestiti, io spendo un mare di soldi in materiali da disegno. Ogni tanto mi chiedo se sono normale... ma lo sono nel mio modo.&lt;br /&gt;Ah, e naturalmente mi sono scordata di fare una foto dell'oggetto in questione. Pazienza, rimedierò. Perchè lo amo. *_*&lt;br /&gt;Invece sono piuttosto indaffarata perchè sta prendendo forma un piccolo progetto, ma per ora è ancora una cosa top secret. Però, dopo che in campo artistico ho preso una certa decisione, mi sento più sicura di me stessa, e pare che la gente attorno a me cominci ad accorgersene, o che le mie manine sante lo facciano, perchè per gli ultimi disegni mi sono beccata un sacco di complimenti. *_* E anche qualche richiesta di commissioni... chissà che non vada in porto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Invece, avete notato che ho aggiunto il lettore musicale nella barra a destra? Se avete voglia di sapere cosa &lt;s&gt;mi fumo&lt;/s&gt; ascolto quando faccio i miei disegni, lì c'è qualcosina, inclusa la canzone da cui ha preso il titolo questo blog.

Niente che possa far gridare al miracolo, ma un piccolo passo avanti che voglio ricordare.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-1383450512804572595?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/1383450512804572595/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=1383450512804572595&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/1383450512804572595'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/1383450512804572595'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2008/11/risultati-del-workshop-esercizio-con-i.html' title='Risultati del workshop: esercizio con i colori'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/th_composition01all.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-5728081732584211607</id><published>2008-11-22T12:42:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-11-22T12:43:55.307+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='workshop'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pittura tradizionale'/><title type='text'>Il workshop di questo mese!</title><content type='html'>Bene, domani di nuovo workshop!&lt;br /&gt;Speriamo in bene...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-5728081732584211607?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/5728081732584211607/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=5728081732584211607&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/5728081732584211607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/5728081732584211607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2008/11/il-workshop-di-questo-mese.html' title='Il workshop di questo mese!'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-6995444638621404984</id><published>2008-11-16T20:35:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-11-26T17:07:14.574+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Tagged!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://brianluesang.blogspot.com/"&gt;The amazing Brian Lue Sang &lt;/a&gt; tagged me on his blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The rules:&lt;br /&gt;-Link to the individual who tagged you.&lt;br /&gt;-Post 7 random facts about yourself.&lt;br /&gt;-Tag 7 friends and link to them&lt;br /&gt;-Let them know they've been tagged by posting a nice message on their blogs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first point is already done. ;-)&lt;br /&gt;I'm not going to tag 7 people though. Instead, I will post links to the blogs of 7 people I find talented or interesting in what they draw, write or both, so you can go see for yourself. :-D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now on with the random facts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. I have friends that have never seen the natural color of my hair. Some of them really freak out with surprise when they see a picture from some years back. I'm one of those people who totally change with a new haircut or dye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. I found my current job through a friend who forwarded to me an e-mail she had received adding "This is just the kind of job that would suit you!"&lt;br /&gt;Was it really? I still don't know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. I started drawing as a regular habit after I fell in love with Sailor Moon. It was something that happened totally by chance because I shoud have been at school when I saw the first episode, but I was sick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. When I was a little girl, I wanted to wear glasses and every time I had my sight checked, I hoped that the doctor would find me short-sighted. I always turned out to have 10/10 though. Always working on the computer like I do, I'm not sure that is still true...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. The first Internet website I became a regular at was the band Muse's official website in 2001. It was very different back then though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. I read fanfiction. Altough I tend to consider that as something of a guilty pleasure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. I love to cook sweet things, but I do it rarely, otherwise I'll gain more weight from eating my own delicacies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ando now, the links! (In no particular order)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.noein.it/"&gt;Noêin&lt;/a&gt;, home of the Nachtbummler group, contains samples from the magnificent work of Tristam Strauss. If you are looking for an artist who fuses Japanese and European influences with amazing results, look no further.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://marimari-chan.blogspot.com/"&gt;Mari-Mari chan&lt;/a&gt;, a Japanese illustrator who lives in Italy with her husband and daughter. Her everyday tales in images of her child growing up are one of the funniest things you'll ever read!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://hellevation.splinder.com/"&gt;Hellevation&lt;/a&gt;, Enrychan's blog. Not only she is a promising mangs-style comic artist, but she also writes with humour and wit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://milady-de-winter.splinder.com/"&gt;Il salotto di Milady de Winter&lt;/a&gt;. Milady is a teacher and has lots of stories about her pupils to tell, some extremely funny, some that make you angry and some that make you think. She is also a classical music lover, not to mention an entertaining narrator.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://ivorysoul.blogspot.com/"&gt;Sognando&lt;/a&gt;, Mirka Andolfo's art blog. I LOVE the way she draws. Period.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://pisopisa.blogspot.com/"&gt;Eloisa's Illustrations and Characters&lt;/a&gt;. Her drawings are light-hearted, bright, full of the sweetness of childhood and ultimately delicious.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-6995444638621404984?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/6995444638621404984/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=6995444638621404984&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6995444638621404984'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6995444638621404984'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2008/11/tagged.html' title='Tagged!'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-3239087688799415931</id><published>2008-11-06T10:37:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-11-06T10:50:32.664+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='autori'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='appunti a me stessa'/><title type='text'>Appunti a me stessa</title><content type='html'>&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F._K._Waechter"&gt;Friedrich Karl Waechter &lt;/a&gt; è stato un illustratore e scrittore - anche teatrale - tedesco.&lt;br /&gt;Non molti al di fuori della Germania lo conoscono, e io stessa sono venuta a contatto con le sue opere grazie a un libro che la mia insegnate di disegno mi ha prestato.&lt;br /&gt;Se vi capita qualcosa di suo in mano, dateci un'occhiata.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-3239087688799415931?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/3239087688799415931/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=3239087688799415931&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/3239087688799415931'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/3239087688799415931'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2008/11/appunti-me-stessa.html' title='Appunti a me stessa'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-8158859456865413138</id><published>2008-11-03T21:45:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-01-28T14:57:35.420+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Marvine Malic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='acquerello'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pittura tradizionale'/><title type='text'>Mamma con bambine</title><content type='html'>&lt;img alt="Mother with girls" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/Mother_and_her_daughters_by_Marvine.jpg" align="cssCenter" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marvine Malic nuovamente.

A parte che ci ho speso un botto, sono felice, poichè con essi si possono fare delle cose ME-RA-VI-GLIO-SE. Sì, ho speso qualcosa più del doppio di quel che volevo spendere all'inizio. Sì, ho fatto finta di convincermi che la scatola da 24 fosse davvero conveniente rispetto ai colori sciolti, anche se sapevo fin dall'inizio che non ne avrei mai presi solo 12. Sì, la visita alla libreria internazionale dovrà aspettare. E sapete che? Sono contenta.&lt;br /&gt;Niente nella pittura digitale che pure tanto mi piace può ancora eguagliare la texture di un bel foglio di carta spessa e delle campiture di colore asciugato lentamente, o il piacere quasi sensuale del pennello sul foglio e di vedere prendere forma qualcosa di così vivo.&lt;br /&gt;E questo weekend, ho deciso, me li porterò dietro e mi farò insegnare come usarli da qualcuno che se ne intende.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1675975359189179429-6265790967669846944?l=koshiatar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/feeds/6265790967669846944/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1675975359189179429&amp;postID=6265790967669846944&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6265790967669846944'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1675975359189179429/posts/default/6265790967669846944'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://koshiatar.blogspot.com/2008/10/acquerelli.html' title='Acquerelli'/><author><name>KoShiatar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11473543061332260497</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-BYVGQo_eFI/SVAT2DLrqOI/AAAAAAAAAGM/ueDde5q-qfg/S220/fragolosa200x200.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1675975359189179429.post-6257968398166544464</id><published>2008-10-21T20:40:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2009-01-28T14:59:52.175+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pusciastova'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='volantino'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lucca'/><title type='text'>Pusciastova: le donne creano!</title><content type='html'>&lt;img alt="volantino Pusciastova" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn246/KoShiatar/Blog/volant550.jpg" align="cssCenter" /&gt;Cos'è la famiglia Pusciastova?&lt;br /&gt;Pusciastova è una comunità (o meglio, appunto, una famiglia!) che raccoglie le donne che per qualsiasi motivo amano dare via libera alla creatività a due dimensioni.
