Positive illustrations

A personal illustration project trying to spread good vibrations. The concept of the project is to take responsibility of whatever you put out for the people to see will affect them. All visual communication that we see every day affects us on many levels. Therefore bringing a little love and good advice to the public can't do much harm.

While flying

 

 

These are photos from Barcelona, Praia's home, Sweden and the sky above using an old rolleicord with expired slide film. There’s always a chance the photos won’t come out good, like the ones from the film I used afterwards that came out all so red. These ones came out in tones of blue and they've made me happy because I could save some from when I was flying…….

Between Trollhättan & Stockholm

This summer I took the train from Trollhättan to Stockholm to see a good friend of mine. It was a beautiful six hour trip and time flew through forest and lakes, forest and lakes, forest and lakes. The sky looked slightly different… I guess that happens when your point of view changes. It makes you feel that it could be another planet, greener, made of red wooden houses with trolls and fairies and little children with silver hair and magnetic blue eyes. It looked like a beautiful place to be.

Roots: Grandma & Grandpa

I wish I knew more about who and how and what… about their stories. I keep in my heart a couple of images created with the words of others… For example, I image my grandpa as a very awesome and successful businessman, funny and loved by all and my grandma... I imagine her so strong, as strong as woman can be, visionary, taking good care of her boys and becoming a fearless businesswoman after the premature death of my grandpa and I believe, if she wanted to, she could move mountains*
