MIDNIGHT...SLEEPY.....LAZY....TIRED..... (more...)

"The restorative influence of nature is not only physical but also morally benefic.In a romantic view the virgin forests are a vestige from the times of creation.By taking refuge in nature one discovers the world as it was conceived by the creator's hands...and by contemplating such exuberance finds himself closer to god...." EDUARDO VIEIRA MARTINS-from his presentation of O GUARANY by JOSÉ de ALENCAR (more...)

9:00 am tuesday... As usual I woke up a couple of hours ago , took my morning shower and headed to the kitchen for my pineapple juice(my favorite).... I went to bed last night telling myself that this would be the first thing I'd do today(been saying that for a few days now...)and the only way to make it happen is to do it before leaving the bedroom...so here I am back in bed , writing with a huge glass of pineapple juice right next to me... This week ends tomorrow...wednesday , for most brazilians...for many it doesn't even matter...and if you're planning to accomplish much in november in Brasil good luck....take away the weekends plus this WEEK LONG holiday and you'll get the picture...just what a country like Brasil needs...and I don't even know what's being celebrated... Anyways...back to tattooing and the piece you see here...I wish I had taken better photos of this piece...it's a shame but it happens sometimes...I'll have another chance to do a proper portrait but the snaps I take right after the last session are important as well...of course you still have a very good idea of the flow of the tattoo and how it fits the body...it's just that it deserved more from me and my camera.... I have a busy day ahead...it already started the way I like it...and even with the excessiveness of the official brazilian calendar there's a lot to look forward to before the end of the month....
