Poetry in lines and colors

and birds finally yielded to the temptation of choosing square city trees as their home, and they loudly began to sing their cryptic songs... from the sketchbook project 2012 - mixed media: drawing pen and hand painted collaged paper

It was my firm intention to post something this week after such a long time! And I chose one of the illustrations created for the Sketchbook Project 2012, this is the drawing that takes its title from the theme of my Sketchbook: a path through the trees. Like some other illustations of the projects this is freely inspired by the novel "Il Barone Rampante" by Italian writer Italo Calvino, the story of a young Baron who one day climbs up a tree with the intention of spending the rest of his life among leaves and branches. Here you can view the entire project, comments and opinions are always welcome! the sketchbook project 2012
