Illustration Friday "GRAVITY"-

Hi everybody, this is my new entry for this week's topic. I have been tagged by the lovely Mrs B and according to the rules I should write 6 weird things about myself.....mmmmh, there are at least 437, but I'll slim them down:

-I got my name from an Italian song called Non è Francesca by the Italian singer Lucio Battisti, it's about a man that doesn't believe the rumors about his girl Francesca, she's been seen with another man.....

- My elementary school in Milan is dedicated to Martin Luther King. There is a concrete train in the garden of the school. We would play there all the time. It's all painted in bright colors inside and out. I was amazed when I discovered that the artist was my mother!!! It made me very proud.

- I was a singer for a while, one of my bands was called Tic Tic Leleouch. Two sisters auditioned for that band before me and did't get the gig. They became very famous in Italy in the dance scene. Their name is Paola e Chiara.

- If I go to any children's birthday party, I usually hang out with the little ones, seldom with their parents....

- I worked for 2 years in a hotel resort in Yucatan, Mexico. We had CRAZY professional shows that we put up every week. In the production of Beauty and the Beast I was a peasant, then Ms Tea pot, then a wolf, then a plate, then a lady dancing the minuet. All in the same show.

When I take a walk and think about stuff I'll start talking by myself (like my mom, nda). I pretend I am on ear phone, so nobody will think I'm nuts!

So, now I will tag Benconservato , Francesca Quatraro , John Coulter , Emilia Yusof , Irisz , Alina Chau .
Have a good week!
Ciao
Francesca
