Fairytale by Ludovico Einaudi With Speed Drawing Video

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


I know, I know, vacations are on, officially I should just do nothing and rest. But ... I just can't resist playing the piano and bothering my niece playing it together, or listening to music, hanging out in the city in the evenings, putting together a 3,000-piece puzzle, or drawing. More precisely, she draws and I support her.

I’ve never been pretty good at drawing. I know it's a matter of practice too, but you need the talent to see the idea in your head and put it down on paper. So, my niece can draw very well and has already had some exhibited works, but since she went to university, there is not so much time for this wonderful activity. She is now learning countless types of music history, yes, she chose music for her career. And she's very good at it, she rocks in all the subjects.

This afternoon, I suggested making together a mini-project. As I recorded the audio of a piano piece still back in Spain I asked her to draw upon the music. I wanted to make a speed drawing video. The music I recorded is a sweet (maybe too sweet for my taste, but we should not discuss tastes) piece, composed by Ludovico Einaudi. Fairytale.

This drawing-music mini project will not be a typical fairytale. Actually, not a lot of story at all, sorry admin @edje, but it will come to this community :) . The drawing represents a fairy, but not a pink or fluffy, happy version of it. No sparks, no magic. It will be a black fairy with long black hair, standing among some clouds in a monochrome dream, that came out from the imagination of my niece. We recorded the video and put together with the music I mentioned, and voila. Ok, the video is not perfect, she accidentally moved the paper and later we didn't realize it was a bit crooked. But I love her way of drawing! And her speed :D The video is sped up 10 times, so the process of drawing was that ten times longer then the length of the video. In the meanwhile, I was there, giving her my feedback, but anyway she made it so well that it was absolutely unnecessary to say anything.

The end of this fairytale (one summer afternoon's activities of mipiano and her niece :)

Now, I almost forgot to come back to your post, but fortunately, I didn't... forget it is :)

  1. Clearly the drawing was made by your niche... My bad that I dropped you a DM before making a statement you can draw... Though you may be able to draw better than you let us believe... My bad I didn't read the post, but now I did. It even says "for mipiano" on the drawing hahaha
  2. How wonderful is it you both are not only making music together but also all these other activities while you also convinced her to create this joint project!
  3. Thanks for posting in the Qsounds community; The content certainly fits what I had in mind 🙇

Looking forward to more of these wonderful creations.

ps It's indeed not too easy to transform something in mind to paper, but it's quite a bit easier to copy eg a lesser complex cartoon figure or something. That is what I did as a kid. I think a good way of learning. Back then, I also tried to draw my parents, from real life... But these attempts where always horibble. My parents looked like their current age, while we are at least 30 years after these attempts 😜

Almost, but not :)

Een) Anyway, we already clarified who was the real artist here and who just moved a bit her ten fingers on the black and white keys :D It was my bad I mislead (or didnt explain in the title) the ownership of the drawing hand :)

Twee) Yes, it's really wonderful that the two of us get along well. Not counting being twice her age, I always hang out with her the most. Look, this Saturday the two of us went to a house music party! You would not believe me hahaha. It was good, I liked it. One of the DJ's was this Marko (Gramophondzie)

Not sure does it match your taste, for me it was a nice evening :D

Drie) I hope it fits (well, I would anyway post it here, if it fits or not 🤣 ) You have the mute this user button 😜

ps I will not ask you to draw your parents then :)

Edit:

WEEHOO! How nice! Another House party! Cooooool... Euhm, just listened to bits of the most popular tracks of this Gramophondzie guy, not really, think, too simple, happy and commercial, but that doesn't matter at all. I'm not the reference. When so, most of the electronic dance would not be created and played while many really really like a lot of the stuff I don't like. Anyways... Looks like a great little event, from the looks of the photo. Some lights here and their, small, and not too crowded. Super super super. Soon and you gonna ask me which clubs and festivals in Barca and surroundings you shall go to hahahaha Not that I know that much, but I know a few goto places, or at least, places that are interesting enough to spend some time at :)

I knew it will not be on your liking, but there is no discussion on tastes :) It could be any other kind of music, what I liked is the place and company :D

It was by a small river (actually a canal, same spot from the last photos from here . There were not too many people, and that made it more relaxing. Also, I liked the modest lighting and that atmosphere, so as I said, it was a nice evening.

When you say Barca, you mean Barcelona or do I miss something? (probably the second option) hehe 😅

(probably the second option) hehe 😅

Yea... No... I mean first option, Barcelona... I shall write it like Barça, or something like that 🎶

there is no discussion on tastes

Hear hear... taste is taste indeed 🙃

what I liked is the place and company :D

And that is what counts! ...... and good music of ofc (ofc = of course) 😂

ofc = of course

Hhahahahahaha, of course, Ed-man, haha I knew at least that, but yes, who knows 🤣

Barça is usually how it is written when mentioned informal, yes.
Just, Barcelona is exactly 500km from my town of living :D

Owwww, isn't Spain a country that can be travelled in a few hours from north to south and east to west, by bicycle?

Okay, girl, you KNOW I am going to love this ....because, well, I am a pixie :) he he

But seriously, this is beautiful! Your niece is super talented and with your music, it is absolutely perfect. I really appreciate your music and her art. Thank you for sharing with us.

Enjoy your relaxation time! I am glad you all are having a great vacation :)

HUGS 💚

The images added to the music are magical. How nice it was to visit this video friend...

Hey @nancyq thank you for the feedback 😃

El dibujo lo ha hecho mi sobrina :) Gracias por pasar por esta publicación y por tu comentario 😇

Waooo, me encantó esto @mipiano. La combinación entre tu bello sonido al piano y el talento para dibujar de tu sobrina, la pieza es hermosa y su dibujo también! Sin ser una pink and fluffy fairy, igual transmite magia, viendo el proceso de dibujo con tu música sonando, todo es mágico, me dejó embelesada 😍

Hey hey @nataliaeline, has visto como dibuija? Ella es un ángel, de verdad, además toca el piano tamb y nos lo pasamos muy bien. Desde hace siempre nos hemos llevado muy bien, y ahora somos como amigas :)

Me gusta a mi también esto lo que hemos hecho, he disfrutado del proceso de creación!

Gracias por verlo y por tu comentario 💞 Besos hacia España 😘

Síii dibuja bello! Y se nota por los movimientos de sus manos que lleva mucho tiempo practicándolo. Yo admiro mucho esa habilidad que tienen algunos, como dices tú, un talento especial para plasmar en dibujos sus ideas, en mi familia uno de mis hermanos es el dibujante jeje, yo nada de nada. Wao qué lindo tener una relación así entre tía y sobrina, en la que ambas pueden compartir tantas cosas en común y ser amigas ❤️ besos para ti también que aún andas por esos mundos 😘 sigue disfrutando tus vacaciones🤗

What a beautiful video has resulted by combining such a well elaborated and original drawing with a lovely and soothing piece of music, you can tell there is a lot of talent involved in all of this.

Ooooow, @musicandreview , estaba segura que he respondido a este mensaje, pero parece que nunca se ha enviado. Corrigo ahora el error y pido disculpas 😇

Sí, esta sobrina tiene mucho talento, bueno, tengo dos sobrinas y las dos son chicas estupendas, y no sé porque he escrito ahora en castellano cuando me escribiste en Inglés. Oh, estoy perdida totalmente jejejeje. Un beso Omar y Dina 😘

jajaja no te preocupes @mipiano, podemos entenderlo. Cuídate mucho y esperamos que tu y tu familia se encuentren bien, Bye!

Gracias por vuestra comprensión 🤗 💙

¡¡Genial!! Mujer Super talentosa eres @mipiano. Celebro esas sutiles manos para tocar piano y dibujar. :D

Brilliant!! Super talented woman you are @mipiano. I celebrate those subtle piano playing and drawing hands. :D

Those hands are great both for drawing and piano, but they are my niece's hands. She is great in piano also, but I can't draw like she is doing here in the video. We made this mini-project together one afternoon :)

Esas manos son geniales tanto para dibujar como para piano, pero son las manos de mi sobrina. Ella también es genial en piano, yo no puedo dibujar como lo ella hace aquí en el video. Hicimos este mini-proyecto juntas una tarde :)
