Bereid je voor om omver geblazen te worden door de tekeningen van Jose Naranja. De kunstenaar was in een vroeger leven een luchtvaartingenieur, maar hij gaf die job op om zich te concentreren op reizen en kunst. Hij pent zijn indrukken van die avonturen al jaren neer in zijn dagboeken, die uitpuilen van de schitterende schetsen en collages.

'Dagboekkunst'

Hoewel hij nog nooit een minuut tekenles heeft gevolgd, zijn de creaties van Naranja wondermooi. Hij maakt grote beelden, tekent minuscuul kleine taferelen en maakt zelfs volledige strippagina's. Naar eigen zeggen begon zijn interesse in 'dagboekkunst' toen hij de notaboekjes van Moleskine ontdekt. Ondertussen heeft hij al twaalf dagboeken volgepend. Die biedt hij sinds kort ook te koop aan in zijn webshop.

Human stupidity. It exists, no doubt about it. There are many proofs along the History which I will not write down here to save paper. The point is: 1.) Does that stupidity live inside certain people? Or 2.) Is it an human characteristic? If we are in the second scenario there is no much hope for mankind and nature will exterminate us. I want to think it's case one and evolution uses those idiots to show the rest what not to do, a kind of teachers. The problem is those people could manage to create organizations which access to power and then drag the whole world to disaster. At the moment History shows they have always been more or less stopped. Anyways, the fact stupidity is there needs an action. Protection against them is the first step. I propose to use a Mexican hat, larger than usual (6m diameter), with blades or whatever to keep people away. Private space.

One of the best points of Colombia is food. Fresh and high quality, specially tropical fruits. Lulo is great. ?Properties of lulo juice?: When taking the first glass the level of beauty increases x2.5, energy x10, you will find SIM card in the corner, find a great accommodation, beard will grow faster and a beautiful Cali girl will appear at your door. All with just one glass! Magical lulo ?

Once upon a time a chess player so good he lost all the games ???? He could calculate many moves from his adversary in advance. His mind was so full of worries he finally surrendered with panic seeing only adversary's win moves. After a few moves, surrender. Same as real life.

Do you know Stratego? An extraordinary board game. I played when I was a kid and now I've rediscovered it with energy. Unfortunately the aesthetic of new game is so poor and the pieces are just stickers on plastic. Horrible. I couldn't avoid to redesign the game with new colors and characters, just for fun ?Btw, it looks like the origin is Stratego is the Chinese game Dou Shou Qi. Chinese are so good creating games ? Games related to strategy are very important for life since they are trainers to take good decisions, seeing in advance, optimizing resources, etc. Practice games.
