After the embarrassment of polvorones, neulas and galets (we are that we can not even move), nothing beats a good dose of enlightened world at its best to lower chichornios and tensions.
This year looks good, soooo good (or at least I believe in and Golafre Martina, you have to be positive eh! "Never négatif always positif" or was it vice versa?? Do not know, something big head coach said that man Barça) and so we have to inaugurate a whole artistazo that you will love. Come on, that has nivelazo!, Mind you in all his characters and scenes because they are amazing, since I saw her waiting for the bus pink monster dream to meet them any day at the bus stop 14 ooooohhhhh! (Although I always find other "monsters" juas juas) In addition I have to say that our artist today is one of the mothers of a child very, very savvy and take "Pa'lante" called Apollo. I do not say anything else ... today ... MARIAM BEN-ARAB!

Mariam Lately I've really enjoyed the two books-game "to play Riddles" and "sayings to play," Vox, I enjoyed very much because the pictures have a multitude of details and humor.

M & G: Tell us one of your hobbies for your free time.

M & G: What character or drawing you identify?
Mariam: I feel very identified with Patrick McDonnell's comic strip "Mutts" and its two main characters Earl and Mooch. I like to read it to try to preserve that look innocent and prejudices that we all when we were kids ... I think it's important, and I are going great for developing my work.
M & G: What illustrator or graphic artist would you highlight?
Mariam: Dozens, hundreds. Every day I discover any. I love Dave McKean, Bill Watterson, James Jean, Rebecca Dautremer, Shaun Tan .. the list is endless.
