Imaginary landscape

Why an imaginary landscape when there are plenty of real ones? I don't know. Really. I just feel like "it", sometimes... This is a pretty old one, a 2004 landscape. When I was experimenting a lot (good habit I've kind of lost, for the moment...but it will come again, I hope). I hope also I did not show you this already... I was wondering when it will happen... anyhow, in my opinion it's a nice imaginary landscape. And nice things are rare this day... I used acrylic and non acrylic inks on a highart board. Nothing better came along when I've searched...

Travis & Jackie

It's not often but it happens... We have the chance to draw couples. This time it was Travis & Jackie. To draw a couple - in the same or almost the same - amount of time as a single nude is not easy. II did my best. The technique is the same: acrylic ink on Arches watercolor paper. What should I say more?

Nelida of Ecuador


Nothing more sophisticated that a portrait of one of my "pupils"... To keep it up with the sunny disposition. Acrylic ink and watercolor, of course.Strathmore paper, also.

Just a sunny portrait...

Drawn this summer, when it was warm and bright...Right now I look outside at 20 cm of snow and it gives me the chills... for a moment. White is, finally, a beautiful kind of color... This is Samuel, a nice, talkative young fellow. Nothing harsh, nothing sinister, nothing depressive. Simply a sunny portrait. I'll try to keep it that way. Of course, it's an acrylic ink & watercolor on Strathmore paper. Enjoy!
