Workshop
You've got to end up somewhere, so just go - said the Cheshire cat.
This is the result of illustrating this concept in the 3 hour workshop with Alessandro Gottardo I've attended this afternoon in Barcelona.

To Lhasa
I got caught in the storm
and carried away
I got turned, turned around
I was rising up
hitting the ground
and breaking, and breaking
I've been re-working on this old painting. Acrylic on cardboard. 49 x 30 cm.

100 BOOK COVERS TO FIGHT ILLITERACY
This is my illustration for the doedemee project against Illiteracy. Also a tribute to one of my favorite authors, and to a beautiful book.
I chose this book because it's one of my favorite youth authors. I've re-read this book again and I've liked it even more than I remembered. It's very clever and philosophic.
I've used a different technique to what I normally use. I thought this had to capture the melancholy and poetry of the book. I drew a Czech stamp that I made up, but with a real former ruler the book talks about on the first chapter. He's wearing the hat the book talks about, as a metaphor of forgetting.
The character is Pamina, a Czech immigrant that gives her body to a man she doesn't love as she thinks he might help her recover the love letters from her husband, who is already dead. I find this as a metaphor of War. She is besieged in a way, surrounded by small soldiers.
I wrote the title in French, although it was written in Czech as it's the first book his author, Milan Kundera wrote in exile, in France, where he still lives.
