...the day before buying my first pinboard...

Happy and excited arrived to one my second gig, as a professional graphic recorder,

after observing the work of my global colleagues, using humongous rolls of white paper

on flat white walls, haven´t realised the importance of the working surface.

Then I arrived to "El Casino de Madrid" a landmark of the city, a historical building

in which I had been many times before but, of course, looking at it with different eyes.

Then my brain used a tool A.K.A. the RETICULAR ACTIVATING SYSTEM

that sparks your awareness regarding what is important for you at the momet

WALLS WALLS WALLS WALLS WALLS WALLS WALLS WALLS WALLS

Not a single space of empty walls to work on, a paradise of velvet, mirrors, 

sculptures, mostly known as Palace Walls.

DISMAY

But as we all now from fairy tales, Palaces have almost invisible inhabitants

that can solve everything, thay are called BUTLERS, so miraculously one of them 

came with a fancy red velvet surface on which I could tape my paper and finally

offer a visual harvesting enhanced by a golden frame.
