From the sketch to the poster.<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Voici quelques étapes qui m'ont conduit de quelques croquis de femmes népalaises en route au projet de l'affiche en mettant en exergue un "détail" du croquis capable de raconter mieux que toute l'image le thème "A la rencontre des femmes népalaises".<br />
<br />
Here is the path from the sketches I made from Nepalese women till the final poster, emphasising a "detail" to better explain the title "Meeting Nepalese Women".<br />

Il me faut 1 h 1/2 de marche depuis notre village pour atteindre le sommet du Niremont (1514 m), ce que j'aime bien faire. Il y a de tous bons sujets à dessiner. Ou alors, juste quelques clics sur mon ordi pour trouver les photos que j'y ai faites et dessiner bien au chaud à l'atelier. C'est l'option que j'ai frileusement adoptée cette semaine.<br />
<br />
I need one hour and a half from the village to get to the summit of the Niremont (= Black Hill, 1514 m), a hike I love to do. So many good subjects to sketch. Otherwise, just a few clicks on my PC to pick some pictures I had made, so that I can draw in my cosy studio. That's the option I "coldly" choose this week.<br />

Inspiring sketchers in Barcelona!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
J'aime citer cette phrase très juste "Etre célèbre sur Facebook, c'est comme être riche au monopoly." N'empêche que ça fait plaisir de découvrir des collègues qui s'inspirent de mon style à Barcelone et qui l'apprécient.<br />
<br />
I like quoting this sentence "To be famous on Facebook is like being rich at playing monopoly". Anyway, I appreciate it to see fellow sketchers in Barcelona who love my style and are inspired by it.<br />

From the foto to the illustration.<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Souvent les gens pensent que pour réaliser une illustration, c'est juste une question d'une à deux heures. En fait, ils oublient qu'il y a tout un processus qui la précède, surtout si on veut appliquer les 3 conseils de Thoreau: "Simplifiez! Simplifiez! Simplifiez!", ce qui demande vraiment du temps!<br />

Most people think that to make an illustration it's just a matter of one or two hours of work. In fact, they forget the process one needs before doing it. Keep in mind Thoreau's advise: "Simplify! Simplify! Simplify!", what really means spending some time on it!<br />

Keeping the spirits of the sketch.<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
J'ai longtemps cru qu'il m'était impossible de retrouver l'esprit d'un croquis en le refaisant ou en l'agrandissant sur un autre support. Pour moi, ce qui suivait le croquis in situ ne pouvait être qu'un sous-produit. Finalement, je me suis décidé à tenter le coup, d'abord avec le croquis de la 2 CV (voir pages précédentes sur ce blog) puis maintenant avec ceux ramenés du Népal. Il me semble être sur la bonne voie. Tenez-vous les pouces pour moi!<br />
<br />
I have always thought that it wasn't possible to keep the spirits of a sketch by redoing or enlarging it on a bigger sheet or on a canvas. For me, the result of working after the in situ sketch could only be a kind of byproduct. I finally gave it a try, first by reworking the 2 CV sketch (see previous pages) then this week about the ones I brought from Nepal. It seems that I am on the good way. Keep you fingers crossed for me!<br />

Contrary to oil or acrylic, watercolor hardly allows corrections. So, sometimes better try it again and it happens quite often that I need several attempts before being happy with the result. In the best of cases!<br />

The end of the trail for a 2 CV.<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Je l'avais repérée, abandonnée dans un fond de jardin quelque part en Italie, et j'en avais fait un croquis sur place. Quelques années plus tard, quelqu'un a absolument voulu me l'acheter. Mais comme je ne me sépare jamais d'une page de mes carnets de voyages, j'en ai fait une aquarelle hier. J'ai pu en garder l'esprit, ce qui m'a rassuré.<br />
<br />
I spotted it, left at the bottom of a yard somewhere in Italy, and I had sketched it in situ. A couple of years later, somebody absolutely wanted to buy it. But I never give any page of my sketchbook. So yesterday I painted a watercolor from it. I am glad and reassured to have managed to keep its spirit.<br />

J'étais bien en train de dessiner ce scooter parqué devant l'échoppe de Mario le tatoueur quand une voiture s'est arrêtée, me cachant le sujet. A l'intérieur, 3 hommes qui causaient avec animation, bientôt rejoints par Mario. Le moteur tourne. On cause. Au bout de quelques minutes, je me dirige vers la voiture: "Bonjour. Dites, la fine équipe, oserais-je vous demander de vous déplacer de quelques mètres pour que je puisse finir de dessiner le scooter que vous cachez? Merci". Surpris, ils se sont exécutés, d'assez bonne grâce.<br />
10 minutes plus tard, la voiture a disparu. Quant à Mario, il est à côté de moi sans que je l'aie remarqué. Il me dit: "Vous les connaissez, les gars de la voiture?" "Bin, non." "Ah bon! Parce que ce sont des policiers en civil!..."<br />
Planqués pour une surveillance? Surpris dans une enquête? Je ne le saurai jamais...<br />
<br />
I was sketching this scooter parked in front of Mario's tatoo and piercing when a car stopped, hidden me the subject. In it, 3 folks chatting with Mario coming. The engine was still running. After a couple of minutes, I went to the car:"Hi, nice folks, do you mind moving a few meters so that I could finish sketching the scooter behind the car? Thanks" They looked rather surprised.<br />
10 minutes later, the car had left. As for Mario, he was beside me before I noticed him. He told me:<br />
"Do you know these guys in their car?" "Well, not." "Really? Because they were policemen!..."<br />
Hidden for an enquiry? Caught in an operation? I will never know...<br />

Waiting for rainy days.<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<br />
Pour être franc, novembre n'est pas le mois qui me plaît le plus. Mais il a un avantage: il vous garde à l'atelier où il y a beaucoup de travail qui m'attend! En fait, il y a déjà des croquis fixés aux murs, attendant d'être traités à l'huile ou à l'aquarelle. Et je me réjouis de continuer à travailler sur le projet du Népal dont l'exposition est déjà planifiée pour mars 2019!<br />
<br />
To be quite honest, November is my least favorite month of the year.
But, it has an advantage: it keeps you in the studio where a lot of work
is waiting for you! I mean, sketches are hanging on the walls, ready to
be worked in oil or in watercolor. And I am really looking forward to
keep working on the Nepal project whose exhibit is already planned for
March 2019!<br />

Spending a week in Provence just to prepare one's courses. What a good excuse! The truth is that, while cycling I always have my sketchbook just in case. And I often take a break to catch a subject that may interest my students in the weeks to come. I am looking forward to teaching them!<br />
