It's +Movie Mashup Tuesday !! Whoooo hooo!!

+Mark Rodriguez, +Ryan Van Sickle, +Mara Mascaro, +Cristy Quinn, and of course, Robby, the robot !! In Forbidden Planet :)

I did these self portrait for my first attempt at the Selfy Sunday project, theme was "Film noir"... by now you know I am not a photographer hehehe...I am an illustrator...but I still love to take pictures... and I love the theme, so I had to try this... :)
I think it fit pretty well the B & W portraits :)

Dear mom,
Thank you.
... for taking the time to listen to me, really listen to me.. when things were not going so well and when things were joyful... for your generosity, for giving us all of what kid's really need: hugs, kisses, time... love. I can't say it enough: thank you!
------
Chère maman,
Merci.
... pour toutes les fois ou tu m'as écouté, vraiment écouté. Quand ca allait mal, et aussi quand ca allait bien... pour ta générosité, pour ce que tu nous a donné; ce que tout enfant a vraiment besoin: des calins, des becs, du temps... de l'amour. Je ne le dirai jamais assez: merci.


For  #caturday  and also, of course, for  #mothersday
Parce que c'est  #chamedi  et aussi, demain, la  #fêtedesmères

I wish I had a good camera... wait, let me re-phrase that: I wish I had a camera hehe... this was done with my Nexus 7 :) ... it's an old tree trunk that has been cut years ago in our backyard, and now it seems that life want's to grow... or attached itself to it. I love nature. :)  #treetuesday

J'aimerais vraiment avoir un bon appareil photo... heu... vais reformuler: J'aimerais avoir un appareil photo hehe... cette image a été prise avec mon Nexus 7 ... bref c'est une souche quasi morte dans notre cours arrière. Il semble que la vie voudrait reprendre le dessus. J'aime la nature. :)

This weekend I went to see #ironman3  (loved it!!) and we saw the trailer for #wolverine ... look like it will be an amazing movie!! So I figured Well, I have to do this one for #moviemashuptuesday  !!... it did not take me long to figure out that +Ryan Van Sickle was/is just perfect for it!! Of course you already have him in your circle... if not, I have no idea how it is possible: amazing artist!!!! :))) 
---------
Ce weekend je suis allé voir #ironman3  et c'étais vraiment vraiment bon. Avant le film il y avait la bande annonce du film de #wolverine  et ca semble incroyablement bon aussi. Alors j'ai pensé faire l'affiche pour le fameux #moviemashuptuesday  et qui de mieux que +Ryan Van Sickle dans le rôle de Wolverine!! Certain que vous l'avez déjà dans vos cercles, mais si non vous devez l'encercler... c'est un artiste formidable. :)))

"Why is everyone so happy except for me," asked the student.

"Because they have learned to see goodness and beauty everywhere" said the master.

"Why don't I see goodness and beauty everywhere?"

"Because you cannot see outside of you what you fail to see inside."

Today I realized I miss the grass. Yeah... living in a snow-country like mine (Canada!) is fun but... I do miss walking bare feet on the grass! So tell me (yeah I am stealing your "question of the week idea, +Jason Kowing) What do you miss more about summer?
