Barcelona

by Mário Linhares, Sintra, Portugal

Last month I went to Barcelona with my art students to visit the city and sketch. 

On the third day, I completely forgot my watercolors and I had to use only the black ink pen…

This first one, in Mies Van der Rohe Foundation, we started outside with small drawings from different points of view. Once inside, we found this amazing sculpture from Georg Kolbe. Was he/her trying to cover his face from the sun? I can’t tell…

There was an incredible exhibition of Pixar at Caixa Forum with real 3D models of all the Pixar movies. We started drawing a selection of three…

… than our favorite model in one single page…

… and then, a mix of another three.

In the afternoon we had time to sketch the cathedral and it’s surroundings…

And we finished the day with an speechless concert in Palau de la Música Catalana.
