I am as much me as i can, trying not to lose myself and my connection to everything. I´m a cat, a pirate, a mom, a little child, a dreamer, an old lady, I am my drawings, my photos and my knowledge; I´m my future knowledge, too, I am what I am and what I can be.I need communication, I need comprehension, I have the feeling of connecting directly, frankly and with no fears with all that surrounds me, to understand it.....Tryin to be an autodidact of everything :D

    "Andrea es una artista en toda la extensión de la palabra y en el sentido íntimo de cada una de sus sílabas. Con las ventajas y desventajas que el ser creativo tiene en toda su vida y en su proceso. Y me alegra haberla conocido, porque me cae muy bien y me gusta su trabajo. Es una persona llena de ideas, de amor por lo que hace, y sobre todo, llena de talento. Mística, divertida, incomprendida, creativa, triste, alegre, rara, nómada, poco convencional, amiga, poderosa, increíble, enérgica. Para mí, Andrea puede ser esto y más.

    Un abrazo, Andrea. Algún día, te prometo, nos conoceremos en persona. Un beso : )

    Erick, de México"

    "Leirdasim is a poet, a mystic and a magician. Her images haunt and inspire me. Given the opportunity to be in front of her lens, I think I would swoon.
    Never, never rush through her photostream. Commit to at least an afternoon, or an evening and take your time. Absorb her images and give them the respect of your undivided attention since she has taken such pains to create them for us."

    ""Creativity is harnessing universality and making it flow through your eyes" - Peter Koestenbaum

    I think of this of everytime I try to comment on one of Leirdasim's images. Her humility in her self portraits can make you think of a possible younger version of yourself, with more freedom and courage, and then in the next one she is as melancholy as a grieving graveyard angel, or pulsing with life like a hive full of queen bees. She can take you through keyholes next to magic doors full of Spanish dust backlit by Madrileno light. Wherever she takes you, you are dropped into the heart of the subject and left to dance your own way out.
    Oh, and she understands if you don't know how to put all this in a comment, too."

    "La realidad es una jarra de agua fría en la espalda. Lo mismo le pasa a lo cotidiano, al día a día... , sabes perfectamente cual puede ser el máximo de sus efectos, cuanto te puede ofrecer.

    Leirdasim no, con cada foto, ilusración digital, dibujo, guiño u ocurrencia te sorprende del todo. Cada vez que ves alguna de su obras piensas que no puede haber otra mejor, y te equivocas, porque siempre trae algo maravilloso debajo del brazo...

    Pura evasión. deliciosa evasión diría... brillantes fotos, maravillosas ilustraciones, preciosos dibujos. Todo eso y mucho más, una artista completa y verdadera, que me está dejando de piedra.

    Y un orgullo para mí poder hacer este "testimonial". Soy un fan, ;-)."
