I'm surprised by the result of a midnight idea... I actually had plans to draw something else, got frustrated and ended up doing something so nice....

usually when I illustrate and something doesn't come out right I don't stop drawing, I just start drawing something else, and try to set myself some kind of challenge.
this time it was to make something as simple as possible.

and I didn't expect the result to be so good.

Estoy sorprendida por el resultado de una idea de medianoche... en realidad tenía pensado dibujar otra cosa, me frustré y acabé haciendo algo tan bonito....
normalmente cuando ilustro y algo no me sale bien no dejo de dibujar, simplemente empiezo a dibujar otra cosa, e intento marcarme algún tipo de reto. esta vez era hacer algo lo mas simple posible.

y no esperaba que el resultado fuera tan bueno.

Before drawing I was wandering in my thoughts, I spent a good few minutes thinking about what I would like to do and as thoughts came and went, at some point a question came to me that I'm pretty sure was asked by my inner child.

because I clearly remember asking this kind of questions to members of my family especially my grandmother, and at some point I felt like I was only 4 years old asking myself

"what would a shooting star look like... if it wasn't rocks or dust... what if it was a human? no... what if it was a goddess? what would it look like? what would its eyes be like? what would its skin and hair be like?"

then it occurred to me how to begin as I was developing this train of thoughts.

antes de dibujar me quede divagando entre mis pensamientos, me quede unos buenos minutos pensando en que me gustaria hacer y mientras pensamientos iban y pensamientos venian, en algun punto vino a mi una pregunta que estoy casi segura que la hizo mi niña interna.
porque recuerdo claramente hacer este tipo de preguntas a miembros de mi familia sobre todo a mi abuela, y en algun punto senti que tenia solo 4 años preguntandome a mi misma "como se veria una estrella fugaz... si no fuera rocas o polvo... y si fuera un humano? no... y si fuera una diosa? como se veria? como serian sus ojos? como seria su piel y su cabello?"
entonces se me ocurrio como empezar mientras iba desarrollando este tren de pensamientos

the body would be with legs and arms close to the body, like a little ball falling from the sky, its skin would be pink, and every time it decided to travel through the sky it would turn black as the night itself, roasting with the speed and fire of a shooting star.

and her hair would be a long, fiery hair of fire.
that every time it falls it would flutter wildly across the galaxy as it travels to other worlds, to other planets.

And when I was halfway there, I thought why not make her a tarot card? she could be the star!

el cuerpo estaria con las piernas y brazos pegados al cuerpo, como una bolita que cae del cielo, su piel seria rosada, y cada que decidiera viajar por el cielo se volveria negra como la misma noche, tostandose con la velocidad y el fuego de una estrella fugaz
y su cabello seria una zaeta de fuego, largo
que cada vez que cae se agitase salvajemente por toda la galaxia mientras viaja a otros mundos, a otros planetas.
y cuando iba a mitad de camino, pense y por que no hacerla una carta del tarot? podria ser la estrella!

without even thinking that it would be one of the major arcana of the tarot, I had already put a lot of symbolism in the drawing related to the star card itself, without planning it or thinking about it too much... and I think that's the most beautiful part of it.

the star card is represented by a naked woman, which represents the fundamental essence of being, in the original card there are seven stars in the sky that represent hope.

there is much more symbolism but we will talk about it in another post. thanks for reading me.

if you like what i do give like and share :3

sin siquiera haber pensado en que al final seria uno de los arcanos mayores del tarot, ya habia puesto mucha simbologia en el dibujo relacionada a la carta de la estrella misma, sin planearlo o pensarlo demasiado... y pienso que esa es la parte mas bonita.
la carta de la estrella esta representada por una mujer desnuda, que representa la esencia fundamental delser, en la carta original hay siete estrellas en el cielo que representan la esperanza.
hay mucha mas simbologia pero ya hablaremos de ello en otro post. gracias por leerme. si te gusta lo que hago dale like y comparte :3
