Tati, the Artsy

4th May was my birthday… Yes, I know: it’s 24th June today; too late for speaking about that. Sorry for not posting anything that day. Actually my b-day wasn’t awesome, but I celebrated it in a good way. Anyway-ay-ay-ay… I am 28 years OLD now! Almost feeling the 30′s crisis. Oh, boy… Can you believe that? I’m 28! o_O’

So, I’d like to share something that reminds my youth. That’s a ridiculous comic I did when I was about 14. Look the title: Star Rainbow! Oh, that’s so embarrassing! I’m very ashamed for that, but, you know… I was just an innocent teenage dreamer. That was the first issue, and I had plans of sending it to a publishing house… Really.

I’ve found it in a file that I keep all the old drawings. When I read that, I had the most “LOLing” time ever! The story is SO crappy… A kind of Sailor Moon copy. And that time I was completely addicted to reading my high school english books. Everything I needed, I had an english-portuguese dictionary… All characters had non-brazilian names and surnames: Peter, Aaron, Sany, O’Hara… The funniest part is that they all live in San Diego, but not the californian city… It was a fictitious San Diego; a city that only existed in my head! A place where everyone is caucasian and has foreign names, but speak brazilian portuguese. Oh, wait! I mean: they speak brazilian portuguese with Potiguar slangs (Potiguar: from RN)! Star Rainbow is such a super heroine who fights against whatever evil, using her colorful power. Her father is a policeman, but doesn’t know anything about her hero-side… blablabla blablabla…

On second thoughts, I’m glad to be 28. :P

    Tati, happy 28! :hug:

    I was addicted about writing stories when I was 14 and I’m still keeping them in my closet. It is a lovely thing to look at them sometimes. Thanks for sharing this moment with us. I wish a long and happy life to you.

    Thanks, Sedat! I used to write a lot too… And I’m missing that creative time! Maybe I should try something like that here, a short story or comic strip… What do you think?

    Long and happy life for you too! :D

    If it’s not a problem to write in English, go on. I would like to read.

    I’m also dreaming about making my stories in comic style but I’m so far away to make it. I’m not capable, yet.

    Do it, at least try few of them. I’m sure, it will be cool.

    Just found your blog via Society 6. I was actually looking for some Inkscape tutes because I’ve never used a vector program. Anyway, I have only my photography on Society 6 (halahblue — just followed you). I love your work and your blog.
