AND ALL THOSE FLAMES THAT BURNED BEFORE HIM

Pedro Almodóvar, one of my favorite filmmakers! His films are very eclectic — colorful, artful and flavorful! They all have themes like prostitution, transsexuality, homosexuality, religion (catholicism), friendships, passion, jealousy, family bonds, incest, death, revenge, humor, child molestation, depression, and of course, love. And sometimes all of those themes are featured in one! His films are in spanish, but don't worry, they all have english subtitles.

The storylines are twisted but real, because that's how the world is. Lots of bad romances. My favorites include Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, Volver, Bad Education, Talk to Her, Law of Desire, Broken Embraces, etc... here are a few screen shots from Bad Education, and Volver. My top 2 favorites!

BAD EDUCATION

NEW SKETCH

I did this sketch in the spirit of Almodóvar's films.
It's somewhat a homage, I suppose.

WHAT I WORE - BONUS SHOTS!

These are the extra bonus shots I took whenever I take my What I Wore Today photo. Since it's already end of June, half of the year already, I wanted to do a round up. I added an editorial, graphic touch to these to make it a little more spicy! :)

The reason why I jump in my pictures is simply because ANYBODY can stand and take a good picture, but it's hard to jump AND take a good picture, therefore, I want to challenge myself, and not bore my viewers.
