Drawing in Châtel-Guyon for Route de Villes d'Eaux 1/2

One week ago I arrived to Châtel-Guyon, I was received by the owner and the receptionist, Michel, of my hotel and I was really pleased by their warm welcome. I felt tired of long, long trip by car and I arrived just in time to have supper.

Along the journey I also drew some sketches of my meals. They were just some snack, something fast to hit the road as quick as I could.

All the days I have spent in Châtel-Guyon have been a bit wet, most of my journeys was so. Fortunately I had the chance to change my plans from outdoor sketches to interior drawings. Like the theater. A really nice and refurbished building thanks to the people's funding which raised enough money to get a brand new building.

But my first sketch was on the top of mount of the Calvary. I couldn't finish it because I had a meeting with Elisabeth the tourist office director's and president of the Jazz festival. 

I needed a second chance but it wasn't the best one because weather, as I have mention before, was a bit fuzzy, rain, wind, sun, hot, freezing,... Everything in just a question of hours.

I had experience ups and downs with my drawings. People say that drawing and arts are for having fun, of course they are for that but also to experience frustration, it is part of the learning process, it is part of being a person. Here there are some of those which have been part of May learning process:

5/3 Challenge (5 days and 3drawings per days). Day four.

Day 4 of 5

Nominated by Isabel Carmona to post for 5 days 3 pieces of my own work whilst nominating a person each day. Day 4, my theme is "life is a play". I nominated so far Miguel Herranz (refused), Teresa Giménez (accepted), and John Alsop was my third nomination. No news from him. Now my fourth nominee is Cris Righi.

These drawings are from a rehearsal of the play "La Casa de Bernarda Alba" by Federico García Lorca. I went with my group of Drawing On Location course to draw people. These sessions are the last and next week I'll start again, ;-)

Día 4 de 5

Nominado por Isabel Carmona para publicar durante 5 días 3 dibujos de mi propio trabajo, y nominar a una persona cada día. Hoy cuarto día, mi tema es la "vida es puro teatro". He nombrado hasta el momento a Miguel Herranz (no le apetecía), Teresa Gimenez Pous (aceptó), a Jonathan Alsop  que fue mi tercera nominación. De cual no he tenido noticia alguna. Ahora mi cuarto nominado es Cris Righi, el loco artista italiano que vive en Moscú.

Estos dibujos son de un ensayo de la obra de teatro "La Casa de Bernarda Alba" de Federico García Lorca. Fui con mi grupo de Dibujo En Situación curso para atraer a la gente. Estas sesiones son la última y la próxima semana voy a empezar de nuevo,;-)
