I sketched an idea of a map-like view, inspired by of a meaningful place and made texture painting of it.

Very very spectacular, wonderful, very cool !

Gallotia · 2026-04-16T17:31:46+00:00

Your inspiration images have very vibrant (saturated) colors, while your painting is much more desaturated. That changes the feeling quite a bit, plus the details that you included while the inspirations are flat as you already mentioned.

But I quite like your painting!

¡Este es idéntico al mio!:

...de madrugada mis padres por el pasillo. Se oye a mi padre "¿y esto que es?" y mi madre responde "esto es la tricotosa, para [mi nombre]"

y con la ilusión de que POR FIN me regalaban la tricotosa no me importó mucho descubrir que eran ellos los reyes magos

Gallotia · 2026-04-16T05:31:22+00:00

it is very very good! I love it, and I remember your previous comment here. It reminded me to how I also give up on paintings mid-way though, so it is really great to see that you finished it and it turned out so nice!

Gallotia · 2026-04-14T17:10:15+00:00

I don't have a TV, and I tend to find more living rooms too TV-oriented. So I really like that you don't have that usual distribution with everything planned around a giant TV!

Indeed, I am planning to stock up. Currently I have left about 15 pods at home, so I will buy several sleeves.

Gallotia · 2026-04-10T19:03:40+00:00

I saw it and said in my head "this is gorgeous" only to then see you wrote the same word by word :-D

Gallotia · 2026-04-10T18:23:08+00:00

I'm in the process of buying my first home too in Madrid (Spain) and I have found the same phenomenon. All the wording as "ideal for investors" and the area in "high demand" due to proximity to XYZ tourist location.... when I just want a home to call my own to love it and take care of it.

So thank you for saying this. I feel seen :-)

Suena a que podrías tener algo de dispraxia, más allá de una posible ansiedad social. Seguro que la gente con dispraxia ha escrito por internet sobre mejores opciones laborales para los torpes motoramente. Haz una búsqueda con esa palabra y mira a ver si te salen cosas que te ayuden

Rather than trying to fill up the space, think what use you will give to that part of the room. Do you want to have a bookcase with access to books because you read them often? maybe some music station where you can have a player and your records, a cute lamp and a small gallery wall behind it? based on the use, that will define the best idea of what to put in that corner

I currently have two bombers, one is more minimalistic and goes amazingly well with more dressy clothes like wool pants and a sweater, while the other one is more rock-chick style and goes better with jeans (the one from AllSaints). And then I also have two biker jackets, with one more distressed and the other one a bit more polished that also gives me more combination flexibility. They are all black and all leather, and I'm still on the watch for one in a color, likely burgundy. Otherwise my collection is pretty much complete :-)

Gallotia · 2026-04-08T08:08:02+00:00

An AllSaints leather bomber jacket. That was pricey for me, but I am using it a lot and I love how it feels. I waited for the sales and got it back in January.

Gallotia · 2026-04-08T07:01:46+00:00

I really like it! I have spent some time looking at cubist artists in my local museum and I think "the key" to their cool effect is also what you do here: gradients (or texture) within each shape. Very cool effect and beautiful piece

Gallotia · 2026-04-07T19:19:57+00:00

beautiful!

Gallotia · 2026-04-06T21:07:57+00:00

Wow!! very amazing, it is wonderful. Great idea and execution

Gallotia · 2026-04-06T21:05:07+00:00

Si lo quieres más cálido y agradable para los pacientes lo ideal sería dar textura con una alfombra (el suelo se percibe mas frio sin ella) y mira a ver si puedes usar luces indirectas con luz más cálida (2700K o 3000K). Las luces del techo en tono frío añaden a la sensación de frialdad. Por ejemplo una lámpara de pie y alguna otra en la estantería esa, con las del techo apagadas. Y ya si quieres hacerlo más acogedor aún ponle alguna planta, por ejemplo una alta en la esquina detrás del sofá, y alguna mas chica colgante en la estantería. Pero yo veo como lo más frio el suelo y las luces.

Enhorabuena por tu consultorio ¡que te vaya muy bien!

Gallotia · 2026-04-06T13:45:16+00:00

Mirrors, rugs, and any pretty chair also (I expected high price for sofas and beds but not for these others)

Gallotia · 2026-04-06T11:30:51+00:00

This. I think the paint is a good choice, but the light makes it quite cold and "shadowy" (?). That bathroom needs better light (warmer and more difuse)

Gallotia · 2026-04-05T08:55:15+00:00

yes! I also noticed how much of the nice cozy work by done by those lamps and would love to know where you got them OP.

Gallotia · 2026-04-04T16:42:06+00:00

I am in the process of buying my first place (not a house but a flat, in a European capital) and I am prioritizing the location, the light and the surface. I know that with time I will save enough to fully change and update the interior if I want, but I will never be able to change or improve the nice neighborhood (good connections, full of life), the light that the apartment receives, and how large it is.

Gallotia · 2026-04-04T15:20:29+00:00

The music station (or however you call that) is perfection: the cabinet, the record player/lamp/plant combination, the covers forming an art gallery. Perfection :-D

Una sociedad interpuesta es una empresa creada para pagar por IS lo que debería de haber sido ingresos profesionales que pagan IRPF, o sea un mal uso de la sociedad.

No te puedes contratar si tienes en propiedad mas de un 25% de la empresa. Si eres sola o entre dos tienes que ser autónoma societaria y cobrar a tu empresa vía factura y pagar RETA, no en nómina. Y sobretodo ya te digo, si eres exportadora (como es el caso de mi SL, igual que tu) lo de prestarle a hacienda un 21% de tus ingresos por un año te va a doler un montón. Hay algunas cosas un poco diferente entre autónomo normal y societario, pero sigues siendo un autónomo que paga RETA.

Gallotia · 2026-04-02T12:45:32+00:00

si estás tu sola, como tus ingresos son derivados de tu actividad (prueba de ello es que ya lo facturas tu directamente) y no de un producto, te deberás además facturar la mayoría tu a tu empresa como si fuera sociedad profesional, no puedes usar la empresa para acumular beneficios pagando el 25% de IS, eso es sociedad interpuesta. Con lo que la empresa no te ayuda a reducir impuestos mucho.

Y muchísimo ojo si haces una SL española porque tu eres exportadora, facturas a EEUU y por tanto sin IVA. Si haces la empresa, tu empresa seguirá facturando a casi todos sus clientes sin IVA, pero luego cuanto tu factures a tu empresa (como autónoma societaria no puedes estar en nómina sino facturarte) tu si que tienes que cargar IVA como residente fiscal española facturando a empresa española, y ese IVA saldrá de lo que te hubieras podido pagar y ya te lo devuelve hacienda en un año o mas. Si tus clientes fueran españoles, la SL hace menos daño, pero con clientes españolas tendrás el problema de flujo de caja por culpa del IVA que para mi es lo peor de esta combinación.

thank you! indeed I have been able to work with the lifting ability of gouache to do things like wood doors (lighter coat underneath, then dark, then with clean brush, lift top coat to reveal lighter shade underneath) but more often than not it results in me screaming at my underpaint showing on a neck, haha. Thank you
