Urban Sketching in Divonne Les Bains
So nice to go and draw outside after quite few computing work! Yesterday I went to the market in Divonne. It was a beautiful day, not so cold, and so sunny. We walked through the market and ended up in La Place des trois fontaines. While kids where playing, I took a moment to draw. What you can see is a corner of La Place des trois fontaines in Divonne, with a view of the Avenue de Genève at the right.
Très beau de dessiner dehors après des heures du travail sur l'ordinateur! Hier je suis allée au marché de Divonne. C'était une très belle journée, pas très froide, et avec un soleil merveilleux. Nous nous sommes promené par tout le marché, et après nous sommes allées à la Place des trois fontaines. Pendant que les enfants jouaient, j'ai pris un petit moment pour dessiner. Ce que vous voyez c'est un coin de la place, avec la vue de l'Avenue de Genève à droite.
Fantástico salir y dibujar un rato después del trabajo en el ordenador! Ayer fui al mercado de Divonne. Era un día precioso, nada frío, y con un sol maravilloso que parecía el sol mediterráneo. Paseamos por todo el mercado y terminamos en la Place des trois fontaines. Mientras los chicos jugaban, yo me tomé un pequeño momento para dibujar. Lo que podéis ver es un rincón de la plaza, y la vista de la Avenue de Genève a la derecha.

Social posters
A social poster is one with a social message. Through images, social posters can be used to denounce injustice, something abusive, or to celebrate some achievement. The final goal is to make people think about something in particular, and if possible, react about it.
One of the most critical things in our society now is the lack of job for many individuals. Lots of people loose their jobs for a very long time, starting a chain that ends up with the collapse of their lives and themselves. Someone loses his job, then cannot pay the bills, cannot pay the house, cannot pay his food, and eventually becomes alienated from the society, and from himself. Others have jobs that are very little rewarded, and also collapse, in a different way. So our job is that foot that we cannot loose, like in the image below.

Pour en savoir un peu plus sur déroulement des travaux:
Je mets à continuation une photo de moi avec les dessins originaux. Le travail progresse toujours de la même façon: je commence avec des dessins faites à main. Le trait est toujours propre et claire. Après habituellement je scanne les images. Dependant de l'usage je procède a mettre du couleur à l'image tout de suite, avec des varietés de techniques qui vont du crayon ou marqueurs, au acryliques. Dans ce cas, normalement l'usage est bien determiné et on ne prévoit pas des grands enlargements, par example, pour faire des affiches etc. De fois on veut que l'image est bien versatile, alors je vectorise le dessin original et mets du couleur avec l'ordinateur, o bien à main pour re-vectoriser après.
Voilà le processus! Il est toujours composé d'une grande variété d'étapes, qui dependent beaucoup de la destination final du travail!

To know a bit more about the work progress:
The picture above shows me in my studio, with the original drawings I made for these cards. Usually, work progresses in the same way. I start with a drawing, always made by hand, with trace always clean and clear. After that I normally scan the images. Depending on the final use of the work I immediately proceed to color the images, with a variety of techniques that range from the use of pencil colors, markers, to acrylic paints. In this case the final destination of the artwork is well defined, and it is not expected that enlargements of the images will be needed, for example, to make posters. There are times however when we want that the images are very versatile, and allow their adaptation to a large variety of uses. Then I vectorise the original drawing with the computer, and paint it with the computer. Or I paint it by hand to vectorise it again afterwards.
So this is the process! It is always composed of many different stages, that depend a lot of the final destination of the artwork!

Dormir bajo un árbol
Sleep under a tree
Dormir sous un arbre
Entre proyecto y proyecto, estuve pintando un árbol en la pared. Alguien va a dormir siempre, desde esta noche, bajo un árbol!
Between project and project, I've been painting a tree in the wall, for someone will always sleep, from now on, under a tree!
Pendant le temps entre projet et projet, j'ai peint un arbre sûr le mur. Il y a quelqu'un qui va toujours dormir sous un arbre!

Va de árboles
This is about trees
Porque los árboles dan vida.
Quién no tiene un árbol predilecto?
Because trees give life
Who hasn't got a favourite tree?

Who hasn't got a favourite tree?
El árbol simboliza la unión y la fuerza, la vida, la esperanza, las raíces, la tierra. Construyamos árboles fuertes y poderosos, dejemos vivir a los que ya existen.
Trees symbolise union and strength, life, hope, roots, earth.
Let's build strong and powerful trees, and let's let live the already existing ones.

El árbol da sombra en un día de sol, el viento mece sus hojas y escuchamos su música, nos acompaña durante esa siesta en un día de verano, o en nuestra misma cama, si lo pintamos en la pared
The tree gives us shadow in a sunny day, wind rocks its leaves and we can hear its music, it gives us company in that nap in a summer day, or in our own bed, if we paint a tree in the wall
