Francoise Hollande caricature...With iPad!!

Well, this is the moment for the new president of France. A socialist who knows he can do all what he wants in economy without and consequence (apparently), like elevate the taxes and investing big amounts of money from the national budget in improductive and innefficient public companie.

But I wanted to express my total satisfaction with my new iPad 3, as a gift from my engaged.

This caricature was painted COMPLETELY with the new iPad and its application named Procreate. With this App from the company Si you can paint with your fingers or any other tool like any capacitive stylus with NO LAG and with some amazing dynamic properties like the opacity directly incrementative as a function of the speedof your drawing.

At first time I though that I need a stylus, a very pointed stylus...But when I was flying towards Seville, Spain to meet with my engaged I decided to start Francoise Hollande, in the Boeing B-737 800 series and I discovered I can paint with total precision , no lag in an amazing way I never watched before in a tablet.

Can you believe me if I told you that I never missed my Photoshop CS5 and my Wacom Intuos 4 Medium tablet?.

I painted this with my fingers in 1h of flying, 2hs waiting from my medium distance train from Seville to El Puerto De Santa Maria in the Santa Justa train station and 1 more hour travelling to El Puerto De Santa Maria: 4 hrs of painting with my fingers with this wonderful App in this wonderful gadget, THE NEW iPad of 2012.

Woody Allen illustration!

Hi there!. This is the new Woody Allen illustration. I haven't watched many films of this recognized director but I only laugh with a scene in which Woody (as an actor) tried to make a robbery or go out of the jail with a soap gun and suddenly a lot of water started to fall from the ceiling and he was frozen with a soap in his hand...HAHahahaha...Hilarious scene from my remembers when I was a child and watched this scene!.

If someone remembers the title of the film, please, let me know.

Enjoy this caricature / illustration

Bye and have fun in this summer!...

Christine Lagarde painted with ipad!

Here is Christine Lagarde. Will she avoid the bankruptcy of Spain and the end of the Euro?.

The fact is that the economy in Spain has been destroyed since an illuminated called Mr. Zapatero decided to tell tales and jokes and put no limits to the budget of each region inside Spain: the Comunidades Autonomas, something like a mini-State. The independentists are becoming stronger against the Spanish Nation and the crisis is not only in terms of economics, it's institutional, moral, social, political...There's no country which could support more than 4 years a president like Zapatero (Obama!).

The former president, Mr. Zapatero, leave us with an official 25% of unemployment and a non declarated 30%. 3 Trillion of Euro of national debt and a real inflation of 20%, declared official of 3%.

The actual president has no "cojones" to do what he has to do and eliminate any sign of nacionalism even with the depression which Spain is living.

This painting was created with Procreate for iPad 3rd generation.

Kind regards.

Evangelos Venizelos!

Hey!. Have you realised how many posts has he held?

• Deputy Minister to the Presidency, and government spokesman, 13 October 1993 to 8 July 1994
• Minister for the Press and the Media, and government spokesman, 8 July 1994 to 15 September 1995
• Minister for Transport and Communications, 15 September 1995 to 22 January 1996
• Minister for Justice, 22 January to 5 September 1996
• Minister for Culture, 25 September 1996 to 19 February 1999
• Minister for Development, 19 January 1999 to 13 April 2000
• Minister for Culture, 21 November 2000 to 10 March 2004
• Minister for Finance, 17 June 2011 to 21 March 2012
• Deputy Prime Minister, 17 June 2011 to 21 March 2012

Incredible!. Only a socialist could be capable of this!. But the fact is that Greece has fallen into the deep of the depression and the mentality of its citizens is still the same,like if them deserve to live better than other citizens in other countries, even sunk.

Bashar Al-Assad

Hi!. This is Bashar Al-Assad. His massacre against the syrian people rises to a hundred per day for the last year...Incredible!.

His particular massacre started around the same date as the former Lybian regime did but there's a significative difference: Lybia has oil and Syria hasn't.

With the G.W.Bush administration it didn't matter because this administration didn't stole a liter of the Iraqui oil but with the Obama administration it's significatively different: Obama supported an attack and change of regime in Lybia but didn't do the same with Syria, when the massacre is being much more important than the few citizens killed by Gadafi.

Obama's style has allowed Bashar kill thousands of his own citizens because he thinks that the ONU "influence" will do the job.

No Obama no...Why don't you copy G.W.Bush style and clean the zone or better said: Why don't you continue the cleaning of the zone?. G.W.Bush did the most difficult so you should only continue something that started 8 years ago.

Thanks for watching it!.

Best regards.

Another Landscape: Fuerteciudad!

Hi!. This is an experiment made with ArtRage for my new landscape.

I've always desired to use the Oil Bristle brushes of Photoshop but its high computational load for my graphics card and my CPU made it impossible to do it.

I don't know how but ArtRage can manage these effects without not much effort.

This landscape is based on the Fuerteciudad zone here in Spain, near Sherry Port, in the province of Cádiz, Spain.

I recommend you to visit this province at the south of Spain.

Dedicated to my girlfriend, Pilar. ;).

Best regards.

Abraham Lincoln!

Hi there!. This is my last caricature/sketch.

I always wanted to paint one of my favourite Presidents of the USA: Abraham Lincoln!.

I love these kind of sketches - pseudo illustrations. It's hard to stop painting it.

He was a wise and quiet man who was dramatically killed  when he was only 56.

His legacy among many other things as the finish of the slavery are these 10 sentences. Please read them  because they deserve a minute:

“Don’t interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties.”

“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.”

“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”

“I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.”

“My dream is of a place and a time where America will once again be seen as the last best hope of earth.”   

“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.”

“This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it, or exercise their revolutionary right to overthrow it.”

“Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.”

“We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution.”

“Whatever you are, be a good one.”

Did you like it?... :-)

 

CONGRATULATIONS MR. CAMPS!!

Hey!. I've read my regional president has been declared NO GUILTY. A great person and better politician who has been seized by the left wing of the politics in Spain.

It's the best case in which the justice doesn't work as it should do.

He was accused of accepting 3 suites and left parties wanted him to take to the jail. It's surprising due to the leftist politicians in Spain are accused of steal packs of hundreds of million € each one of them and justice doesn't do anything against them: "Campeón" case, "Erederos" case, "áticos" case, "Garzón y su penulti-imputación" case,"Faisán" case...

Congratulations Mr. Camps!!.

Mariano Rajoy Brey, the new president of Spain

Hi!.

I wish you a Merry christmas!.


In Spain this is our special Santa for this year. We hope he can take out Spain from this black hole in which our former president Mr. Rodriguez Zapatero introduced us.

He represents the opposit Mr. Rodriguez Zapatero was and seriously, Mr. Zapatero was the worst thing could happend to a country.

If our country can recover from this stage we wil very lucky and the future generations won't need to go out from Spain.

But, let me send you my best wishes: With Mariano Rajoy Brey we will have the best success!!.

Bye!

Dilma Roussef caricature

Last day I was watching the news and I watched Dilma. I couldn't wait for more time and I decided make a sketch of her as fast I could do.I watched her at the meeting of the latest stupid anti-american union of american countries.

Who knows if I will convert this caricature into an illustration... :)

Why do these countries join to Chávez and Castro to support their crazy games?.

The position of her finger in her right hand is not an invention of mine...You can watch her in the same way at:http://perlbal.hi-pi.com/blog-images/341230/gd/128895483245/CPMF-o-cartao-de-apresentacao-de-Dilma-Rousseff.jpg .It called me strongly my attention.

Enjoy this caricature and have a nice day.

Best regards.

Van Ron Puy:an useless for another!.

Hi!. This is Van Ron Puy. His charge was created in order to hide the disaster which supposed the presidence of Mr. Zapatero for the European Union within the rotatory turn of the european union Government.

They couldn't avoid or skip the turn of Mr. Rodriguez Zapatero and they decided to create this useless charge together Ashcroft's one...Who's worse...I don't know.

It takes the same: here you are this caricature: one of the ugliest men in the the U.E. high charges...Hahahaha...

Kind regards.

David Niven illustration!

Hey David!. Where do you go with this mini-cannon?...Did you steal it from Navarone??.

Here you are my new caricature / illustration.

He was really easy to caricaturize. It's hard to stop when a caricature must stay as it or become a caricaturized illustration...

I'm happy to show you my David Niven's caricature after a week of hard work here and in other tasks.

David was all a gentleman, elegant and a man who stolen the heart of so many girls all along his career and around the world...

Thanks for watching it!.

Newt Gingrich and his "Contract"!

Hi again!. This time with Newt Gingrich. He's another person from the USA who is trying to change Washington in terms of politics.

All this is explained in his revolutionary "21st Century Contract With America".


He has started his "program" of teaching all his ideas about how to save and retail for a better prosperity for the people in the USA and all this without crushing people's rights through the excuse of stupid and useless stimulus plans.

Here you are the Newt website version:
Newt website

Thank you very much. And thanks for watching it.

Come on Steve Jobs caricature!!.

Hello friends!. How long without publishing and caricature!. I've been really busy with other kind of jobs and I desired finish the caricature completely.

Steve jobs is one of the most important men in the planet. He's the man who changed the life of millions of persons: persons who work in Apple and persons who enjoy Apple's products.

He doesn't spend his fortune and personal time in the creation of jobs and more fortune for people who are so lucky for working for him.

I hope and it's my desire he recovers soon and definitely and finally crush the cancer he's fighting for years.

We need him and the world needs him!.

So here is my caricature, a tribute for him.

Good luck Steve!.

The wedding of one my mates at university...

They got married in a registry in church, (this church you can see as background) a few months ago.

Congratulations Man and Elena!.

I'm still waiting Man tells me how about their travel to the States...When will we met?. And please, don't forget all the photos you think necessary, ok?.

Kind regards.

Bye!.

DSK

He's Dominique Strauss Kahn, the leftist french candidate for President of the FMI.

It's incredible the way he has avoided the jail...But I believe in the USA's justice and if he has went out free of charges and finally avoided the jail this is because he's not guilty.


We will stay tunned to the DSK case.

Meanwhile, a caricature of him will help us to pass the time.

Remember that you can watch his caricature at:
http://theamericano.com/2011/08/31/el-todopoderoso-dsk/

Enjoy the caricature!.

Bye!.

Sketch of Paul Newman

A landscape about the Spanish beach...

Good morning...This is a fast beach landscape basd on several photos sent by a friend of mine called Alicia Antolin. Thanks Alicia!.

In the Spanish region of Murcia you can see the mediterranean beaches, always with a quiet and warm sea.

I would recommend the visit to these beautiful beaches.

Thanks for watching!.

Amy Winehouse

Enjoy it!

More money, more money!!!

More money!! More money!!...It's an allusion to the crazy film of the Marx brothers film...Mr. zapatero is driving to the Spanish economy roght to the edge, to the hole, to the self-destruction. 5'5 million of unemployed, 1'5 million of families without any type of income and a deficit of 6'5% make possible every little problem out of our spanish borders converts in a biiiiig problem for our economy.

If at least spaniards could learn that keynessian big spend stimulus plans only create big problems of debt for the next generations...


Today our IBEX stock index has fallen a 3'24% and our differential to the german bund rise till a new record of 370 points...

Mr. Zapatero: You are the worst president in the history of Spain.

As always, I hope you like it.
