MUSIC FOR LIFE

There are too many things that I can live without them. But there is a thing that I really can’t live without it: my MP3 player. I suffer when I don’t have it, even more if don’t have headphones… When I go on the bus, when I take a bike ride, when I go walking in the city, when I’m in classes of drawing or painting in the university, when I’m working in home, in my bedroom, sleeping, I mean; everywhere I could use it.

I didn’t buy it; I got this in a contest actually, about 2 years ago in a visit that we did in the secondary school to a university of Santiago, there they made a contest, a drawing actually, and I was the winner of the prize: an MP3 player. I was very happy, because I didn’t have one, and I needed it.

I use it everyday I can. And I feel like… I don’t know, like if I could disconnect me from the real world and connect me to another world, an own and personal world. But sometimes it’s not really good, because I can’t hear what is happening out there because I’m with a very high volume. I’m very sad when I don’t have it. Because of that I try to take it everywhere I’m going. Life is very different when I’m not listening to music, it’s so monotonous…

Silk-screen printing

Well, my favourite subject in my career this year is "Silk-screen printing" and it's a skill of engraving, useful for printing images, pictures and related to photography. Francisco Sanfuentes is the teacher of this class... and I know him because I took the draw class with him the last year, and he's a great teacher, and a nice guy - he's very compromised with what he does. Also there're two assistants in the class.
I really like this, and I like the silk-screen printing since a long time ago, when I knew and heard of it at secondary school. I remember that my art teacher show us some photos of some contemporary artists like Warhol who used the silk-scren printing on their art works, and I was very excited with the images produced with this skill of engraving, I dind't know how to use it or how to make a print, but the results... I don't know... I really liked it, and I wanted to do a print. All the colours, images and draws, I found it amazing.
This semester in school I have learned too many things, and I've learned things that I didn't know the last year, in this class for example, I learned how to make a silk-screen printing and I have made some prints... I don't really like what I've done now, but I hope to learning more and achieving more for make too many prints and images.
