Vetulonia

Wir waren eine Woche in Vetulonia (Südtoskana). Der Ort ist tatsächlich über 2500 Jahre alt und ist so schwer mit dem Auto zu erreichen, das sich dort kaum Touristen hinverirren. Trotzdem hat man immer eine Fangemeinde aus Kindern beim Zeichnen. Die Zeichnungen entstanden mit einem Pentel Brushpen und etwas Edding für die schwarzen Flächen.

We visited Vetulonia (south-tuscany) for one week. The village is in fact older than 2500 years! It's so difficult to reach even by car that you don't find any tourists there - anyhow you always have a fan-community of kids while drawing. I used a Pentel brushpen and an Edding for the black areas.

These are nice Jorn! I like the balance of black and whites in the top one specially.

So you are going to Mallorca shortly? Good for you! It would be nice if I was there too but I just came back to LA after a short vacation. Next time hopefully!
