subject, field, etc), develop (do many of those), and then move on to the next step (progress). - LEARN from mistakes and don’t get annoyed with them (actually, join them). Somebody asked me the other day while I was happily painting, if I wasn’t afraid to make a bad brushstroke and arruine the whole piece. And I thought, well it hasn’t cross my mind until now you say it. There might be always a drop of fear in the moment of creation, the fear of failing and a sort of tension that brings along. Just a few words: it’s pointless, let it go. And if it goes wrong, try again. - DON’T FOLLOW the current (and if you do, be aware of it). It’s hard sometimes because it comes with the feeling of being accepted, so it sucks you. I truly believe that the best choice is authenticity. - BE HUMBLE. Always. Gain confidence in yourself and walk you own path open and humble. Arrogance just hide fears... For the rest, don’t take it too personal, live simple, do introspection, grow your positive thoughts and be a good person. RANDOM: WHAT ABOUT BIRDS DO YOU FIND SO LOVEABLE? I think that people get attached or feel more attraction to things, colors, people, according to moments in life, mood or mental state you have in a certain period. I would say that during my last 2 years I started a big “emancipation process” in many aspects of my life and I guess that birds print on me this impression of freedom, lightness and happiness that I aspire.
Beside, I’ve seen how different is to walk in the grey winter streets of the Belgium without any sound and to walk in a sunny musical street with birds hanging on the trees. They can really cheer you up! I find birds a spice that makes the difference. WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE PLACES IN BRUSSELS? My favorite spot in Brussels is the little park that is 50 meters from home, it’s a communal garden that has a hidden income in Viaduct street. There is a bank in the middle of a small hill that holds a cute tiny sculpture of Pinocchio standing on his nose. I always go there to relax and draw. Sunday market in Plaats Jourdan is also one of my favorites, a parking lot that becomes a lively social encounter, vegetables everywhere, organic coffee and delicious Moroccan food. They say that the best french fries of Belgium are right there in the middle of the square, I can not tell... WHAT LANGUAGES DO YOU SPEAK? I speak spanish as my native tongue, then english, I’m learning dutch at the moment (ready to have an easy conversation) and trying to understand some french (I hope to improve it in time).
