Petr's sketchbook went on a journey with me, traveling some 4,080 kilometers into the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, visiting Grand Turk, Puerto Rico, St. Martin, and the Bahamas. In the end, after thinking through several concepts involving forest animals, trees and human faces, I was ultimately inspired by the waters I traversed. I sketched this while sitting in the ship's library one afternoon at sea somewhere between St. Martin and the Bahamas. These tarpon fish, with their big black eyes, seemed to fit the theme. Petr's raindrops continue into the scene, becoming tiny fish in the background.
John,
OdpovědětVymazatCan't say how happy I am to have a fish appearance in my book - there something unexplainably intriguing about fish. And I like them all - but the one with the eye is magical! How charming and creepy at the same time. I love your sketch ... and I'm a little jealous of your travels.
