Sketching KarpeDiem

1st December, the snow falls slowly outside, the first snow of this winter, marking the start of another  christmas,what a fantastic day!
 In Portugal is Restoration of Independence's day, so another reason to make this day a special day.
But there is something else... something that makes this 1st of December different from all the others 1st of Decembers that we have know and that we will come to know. 

Today KarpeDiem is coming out with their new album  "Suspenso no Ar". KarpeDiem is a Portuguese rock band, one of the few rock bands that keep, i will not say the old Rock, but the real Rock alive. Rock melodies and poetic texts, that leave us speakers of the "Camões language" suspended in the air. I had the privilege to be a little part of this adventure, when i was asked by them  to illustrate something for the new CD. 
 I made 4 different sketches, and i know they decided to use the "birds", but i don't know how and where, i am waiting anxious for the exemplar they sended to me. 
 But the how and where they used my art is not the point, the point is that i would love to be there today, for their "premiere" concert, and i cant. But from here, from the cold north i send you guys a really warm hug, and the wishes of a fantastic night.
 Please Keep on Rocking!
