#IlustradoresConAyotzinapa

Since the shameful events around the disappearance and killing of more than 43 students of Ayotzinapa carried out by Mexican authorities in alliance with criminal groups at Guerrero, México. A group of illustrators began a campaign to show concern and discontent in social media using images of the faces and names of the students .The idea is to avoid anonymity of the victims and to demand justice to the government. 

Hundreds of contributions are now being collected at: http://ilustradoresconayotzinapa.tumblr.com/

So go take a look and help us make this atrocity of international domain. This things can't go on in this country...

There is a big amount of information in the net if you have interest in knowing what's happening and I leave you some links that could help understand this phenomenon.

Spanish: 



Yo, Leo Moreno, quiero saber dónde está Marco Antonio Andrés Santos.
 
Where is Marco Antonio Andres Santos?
Where are our rights?
Where is the common sense?
Where is our humanity?
Where is our dignity?

Time Machine #1 (Oldies gallery)

On weekend  I bought two new little book shelves at Home Depot (free ad) and after 2 years 1 month of living alone, I was finally able to unpack all my stuff forgotten in the deepest and darkest corner of my closet.

It was an epic adventure very similar to the ones lived by great legends like Bilbo Baggins & such. But don't worry, I'll keep the details for later...

It took me like six hours to reorganize a big amount of awesome books, comics, dvd's, and some action figures from the past. I had a great time, but the best part came when I found a large stack of old semi-dusty drawings :O

I say "old" not because I was very young at the moment I made them, but to the fact that some of them have 10 years of existence at least...By that time I used any tool could scribble and every paper I found to vomit all my concerns into it. Ps or Painter didn't figured out yet as you can guess.

In the end I chose a few that bring me cool memories and I'm sharing them with you. I really don't know when exactly I lost the path because I can see a powerful creativity feeling imprinted on them. Jeez! feeling old, being a grown up sucks >_> 

Hope you enjoy them as I do.



 The first one came out of a poem I read in school, I think the second one tries to be one itself.

 I had a crush with an unreachable girl in high school
 and this is how I felt about it xP

A girl I knew had an accident and fell into a coma for a very long time, 
at the end she never woke up, sad story.

There was a time I fell in the claws of Ragnarok Online MMORPG.
It ruined my real life for a season but it was very very funny. 
These characters are from the game.
