I spent decades building certainty.

Knowing what I was good at.

Feeling comfortable in my professional identity.

And somehow…

starting over has taught me more than success ever did.

There’s something deeply humbling about becoming a beginner again.

But maybe growth has always lived there.

In the uncomfortable places.

The places where we don’t know what we’re doing yet.

And still choose to keep going.

Have you ever started over?

Sometimes a shape speaks to you before meaning does.

I first fell in love with the geometry of this beautiful Adinkra symbol from Ghana.

Then I read what it represented…

continuous learning, growth and the idea that wisdom comes from staying open enough to evolve.

And suddenly, it meant even more to me.

I didn’t want to recreate the symbol exactly.

Instead, I used it as a starting point and allowed the piece to become something of my own.

Lately I’ve been noticing something about how I create…

Sometimes I’m drawn to something visually first.

And only afterwards understand why it was calling me in the first place.

Maybe that’s part of being an artist too.

Following curiosity before understanding.

I hope you like it!

I’ve stopped asking myself:

“What should my art look like?”

And started asking something much more interesting.

What kind of world do I want to create?

Lately, I’ve been drawing creatures that don’t exist.

Plants from unknown ecosystems.

Species that belong somewhere between nature, mythology and imagination.

I don’t know exactly where this is going yet. 🤔

But I think I’m finally getting closer to something that feels like mine.

Being Argentinian means football is never casual 😄🇦🇷

Tonight’s match starts at 2am here in London…

which feels slightly disrespectful honestly.

But the real question is…

When World Cup season arrives…

who are YOU supporting? ⚽🌍

I know not everyone’s country is playing…

but everyone has a team. Right?

Tell me yours 👇

I wasn’t looking for them.

They just appeared. 🐒🐒

Pencil, acrylic markers and oil pastels.

Still exploring.

Still getting lost on purpose.

One strange creature at a time. 😄
