Dibujando con Giacometti otra vez y, bueno, un autorretrato también. 22-23 enero, 2012. (Drawing with Giacometti again y a self portrait too.)

When I started blogging my sketchbook I was doing one drawing a day. However, as time went on, the drawings became more complex and more enmeshed in an on-going thought process. They start one day and finish whenever they finish. I`m still drawing every day so not much has changed. (Drawings are pencil, ink, watercolor, whatever on paper: various sketchbooks, originally 5 1/2 x 7 in. double page Moleskine spreads -- but I've branched out.).

7 x 14 in. double-page spread; watercolor, ink, whatever [collage] on Stonehenge paper.

I found these sketches in a notebook -- they took me back to November in Málaga and the Giacometti exhibition at the Picasso Museum.

There was a film crew in the way and I began to sketch from the paintings and drawings partly to overcome my irritation (and besides photography was prohibited).

And then there was the film -- with Giacometti painting -- a portrait.
