Special day, special photo.
Because is the rarest thing to be with my parents and that we could have chance to capture it in a photo.

As Silvio says: Anguish is the price of being yourself.

Wet kisses to all…

Thanks to Eva for take this special photo.

Tomorrow is the great day, we are moving to a new house. A lot of boxes full of books and comics are like the 60-70% of total luggage. Im going to be offline a lot of days (I dont know how many) thanks to our lazy “domiciliary changes” internet provider.

Thanks for all old house, I will miss you.

Today is the day, after a few illness I get back to work at full time.
A lot of cool projects are close, not only my color work for Moonstone (Buckaroo Banzai), this one-shot comic has been a great learning experience to me thanks to Paul Hanley (artist) and Joe Gentile (editor). Another project is a short 3 pages story to El Arsenal: Mixtape with writer Abraham Martínez and again with Abraham theres a short 4 pages story for Openhaüs.03

Today is Eva birthday, by the morning we brought a chocolate cake to celebrate this very special date. Thanks to bring light to my life, I love you a lot and you know that.

Last weekend Eva and me goes to a small Con in Veracruz, Mexico. Theres no big things to say about the event but I was very, very happy because our hotel was close to the sea… to the sea!! I never know the sea until last weekend and fuck! is so big and so beautiful… so amazing sigh! you feel so small.

Ok, enough of this, I know you want photos…

Almost 5am in this side of Earth, Eva goes to sleep 3 hours ago. We are working in the first issue of Openhaüs, a comic-book anthology with works by Ani Castillo, Norma Cuéllar, and of course, Eva and myself. Openhaüs.01 comes this november 16th in a local Con. Eva`s short story is titled El Manzano (The Apple Tree), she draw an illustration for Norma short tale too, my short story is titled Raíz (Root).

We are happy, we are tired… and we are full of stress. But we are making comics and comics are good (as Becky could say). Im the only man in the first issue and Im very proud of it; theres not a lot of women in Mexico working on comics, Openhaüs not have only comicgirls, Openhaüs have talented comicgirls… Grrrrl Powa!!! in his highest point.

The image from above is the final lineart of the cover, a post about process coloring is coming in a few days.

Now to bed.

UPDATE: 8am and Im going to work, I upload this cover to Flickr some minutes ago.
