I am she who adorned herself and folded her hair

expectantly,

My truant lover has come and it is dark

 Walt Whitman, Leaves of grass [The sleepers]

I'll take a second of the day to think about the things that we have done this year

It's the colour of blood, chaos and corruption of a happy soul,
a happy soul will ride in the field

Me pregunto qué color tendrá el año 24.

Belle And Sebastian, The Loneliness Of A Middle Distance Runner

Christel, del blog Le Vaisseau Sélénite http://selenite.weebly.com/ seleccionó a Turpentine kisses en su lista de blogs favoritos, con el Stylish Blogger Award. Gracias!
Me gusta que alguien que tiene un blog de moda se fije en el mío. A mí también me gusta el suyo, es muy creativa vistiéndose, y suele hacer referencias al arte.

7 cosas sobre mí misma:
1. Nací el 3 de julio del 87 en Ferrol (España) 2. Últimamente he estado leyendo a Sylvia Plath, me encanta su poesía. 3. El título del blog, Turpentine kisses, viene de la canción Cupid de Locke, del álbum Mellon Collie and the infinite sadness, de The smashing pumpkins, uno de mis grupos favoritos. 4. Me gusta mirar a la Luna, sobre todo cuando está llena o casi llena 5.Quizá suena a obviedad, pero me encanta dibujar; muchas veces es una necesidad. 6. Me gusta el invierno, diciembre, su oscuridad, y me gusta la primavera y las flores. Me gustan los cambios de estación, cómo lo transforman todo y ser consciente de ello. 7. Me gusta llevar el pelo largo.

I like the fact that someone who has a fashion blog, likes to check mine. I also like her blog, I think she is a very creative at dressing! And she usually makes references to art.

7 things about me:
1. I was born on the 3rd of July, 1987, in Ferrol (Spain). 2. I have been reading Sylvia Plath´s poetry lately, and I love it. 3. The title of this blog, Turpentine kisses, comes from the lyrics of a Smashing Pumpkins´ song called Cupid de Locke, which is found in their album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. They are one of my favourite bands.4. I like staring at the Moon, mostly when it is full or almost full Moon. 5. It may sound obvious... but i love drawing; I can say many times it is a need.
6. I like winter, I like December and its darkness, and I like spring and I like its flowers. I like the change of seasons, how they change everything and being conscient about it. 7. I like having long hair.






Cupid de Locke, The Smashing Pumpkins

There is a drop of blood on the ground
And it seems to me that it's not my kind
And I can't be sure if it's yours or mine

One night a boy and I rowed across the lake. He was furious with me because I wanted to let another boy go with us. He was cross all the way across the lake and crosser still when we found -after we finished shopping- that our boat was gone and we had to walk back around the end of the lake. On the way I stood a moment looking out across the marshes -marshes with tall cattails, a patch of water, more marsh, then the woods with a few birch trees shining white at the edge on beyond. In the darkness it all looked just like I felt -wet and swampy and gloomy, very gloomy. In the morning I painted it.

Gracias porque, en el silencio y en el espacio, las imágenes, los sentimientos, también se magnifican, y por eso te quisiera dar las gracias, las más grandes posibles, ¡me hizo mucha ilusión!

Se podría decir que los aguaceros son característicos de la región donde me crié.
En Rusia hay largas temporadas de lluvia que despiertan la nostalgia.
