one of the drawings i did today.... the paper is about 80x110cm, i'm starting to like drawing in big formats, though for a "real" drawing i would need more time. this one took me about 2 hours and it's not complete, i'd call it just a big sketch, he.

these are the compositions we had to draw today. in the last one i couldn't supposedly use shadows, only lines, so i used a 8B pencil (sort of conté) instead of charcoal but couldn't help adding some (shadows). i also used some cream-coloured pastel pencil to enforce the light. these are all big sketches of about 60x80cm., big for me at least that always drew in small formats...=)

finally today I received a copy of this CD by an argentinian folklore musician (piano player), with a portrait i drew back in 2005 after an old b&w photo of him. thanks to my friend Karina who knows the producer and got the link for me to do the illustration.
this one was published last december and it can already be seen in internet for sale in a couple of places but I guess in some time it'll be in more sites like the previous ones. this one is the last of the trilogy.
Here's the link to one of the sites where they're selling it. wanna buy one? hahaha
