Pilgrims

© 2006 Armando Salas. "Pilgrims". August 2006. Colored pencils. 87 X 70 cm. My second work with this technique; a very tiring work :-((( -------Pilgrims, since the Middle Age, walked more than 1.000 Km, from France and other European countries to Santiago de Compostela. Their trip, across the North of Spain. Green landscapes. In the wet Galicia, the "Green Galicia", landscapes have beautiful valleys, huge sky, freedom. I definitely decided that my Galicia might appear in the painting in all its splendor. This way, my finished work has "atmosphere". I only needed a few modifications because of the big format. ---------------- YouTube video. Song:"Canto de Andar" performed by Luar na lubre" ---------------------------------------------

Armando: Ante todo, vuelvo a insistirte, ésto tiene "duende" no tiene nada en común con la Ilustrasción. Es un fragmento muralístico.De gran calidad.... Por siempre. José

Armando my hand hurts just admiring your colored pencil art...I can not do it, it's too painful for me...all these images would make great book illustrations.
