Anita-Vitoria

Anita tinha mais ou menos 1 mes e meio quando foi resgatada de uma enchente pela amiga de uma amiga, que precisou viajar a trabalho e a deixou conosco por 3 dias. Por ter sobrevivido a tragicas circunstancias recebeu o nome de Vitoria, mas eu so conseguia chama-la de Anita, Ninita. Entao ela passou a ser Anita-Vitoria para mim. Anita chegou aparentemente saudavel mas comecou a apresentar problemas, parou de comer, beber, e quando chegou ao veterinario ja nao havia muito o que fazer. Tomou soro mas teve febre, convulsoes, e nos intervalos olhava para mim. A causa provavel levantada foi Leptospirose, mas nao houve tempo para os exames. Anita faleceu dentro do carro, do meu lado. Dois dias depois viajei para Bogota, o que foi muito apropriado pois se eu ficasse passaria mais dias chorando. Mas la eu ainda sonhei com ela e comecei este retrato da pessoinha que passou como um raio pela minha vida. Anita was about 1 and a half month when she was rescued from a flood by a friend who needed to travel for work and left her with us for 3 days. Because surviving from tragic circunstances she was named Vitoria, but I just could call her Anita, Ninita. So she became Anita-Vitoria.

Anita arrived apparently healthy but started having problems, stopped eating, drinking, and when she arrived at the Vet there wasn`t much to do already. She took serum but had fever, convulsions, and in between she looked at me. A Leptospirosis was presented as the possible cause but there was no time for exams. Anita passed away in the car, by my side. Two days later I travelled to Bogota, which was very appropriated because I would have cried for days if I had stayed. But in Colombia I still dreamed of her and started this portrait of the baby who passed through my life like a gleam.

Ricardo by Ricardo

Este post-it de agradecimento estava colado no meu monitor depois que emprestei um CD pro Ricardo. Pior que nao consigo me lembrar de qual foi... Cream? The Zombies? Moody Blues? Stones?...
Mas o retrato ficou comigo :)
This thank you post-it was stuck on my monitor after I have lent a CD to Ricardo. The worst is that I can`t remember which... Cream? The Zombies? Moody Blues? Stones?...
But the portrait stayed with me :)

Kenzo by Carla

Invertendo as coisas agora. Este retrato-rabisco foi feito no escritorio, entre um croquis e outro, da primeira pessoa que eu vi na minha frente. Que era o Kenzo, cuja mesa era oposta a minha

Inverting things now. This doodle-portrait was made at office, between a croquis and another, portraying the first person I saw in front of me. Which was Kenzo, whose table was opposite of mine.

Carla by Bruno

Esta foi feita pelo Bruno para uma mensagem, catalogo, cartao, nem-sei-mais-o-que de Natal da firma (sim, eu ainda falo "firma"), e que acabou nao saindo. Bem que eu notei que naquele dia ele se sentou numa mesa perto de mim... E eu nem notei que estava sendo retratada. Bom ter amigos talentosos :)

This one was made by Bruno for a Christmas message-catalogue-card-whatever for the firm (yes, I do speak "firm"), which wasn`t produced after all. I noticed he had sat near by me that day... But didn`t noticed I was being portrayed. It`s good to have talented friends :)
