15x15cm. Estilografos y acuarelas sobre papel/Stylographs and watercolor on paper.

La palabra para el Inktober correspondiente al día de hoy es "encantad@". Quise hacer algo simple, sutil. Desde siempre he sentido fascinación por las flores diminutas. Éstas pequeñas flores que crecen en el monte y que tienen formas complejas y hermosas.

De niña, me gustaba imaginar que estas flores diminutas pertenecían a un mundo encantado, miniaturizado, y que de alguna u otra forma eran el pasaje a un lugar secreto y desconocido,un universo mágico capaz de caber en una maceta, un universo en una cáscara de nuez.

Las flores pequeñas siguen siendo mis favoritas, las flores de monte a las que no les conozco el nombre, las flores de las plantas aromáticas, las de los cactus, todas me siguen pareciendo parte de un mundo diminuto al que algún día podré llegar.


Proceso:

El proceso de ilustración se dio en tres pasos esenciales: primero el boceto con lápiz de mina dura y trazo claro. Segundo,el delineado con estilografos punta 0,05 y 0.1. Y finalmente las acuarelas, apenas unas gotas de azul cían y amarillo cadmio, con toques de rojo.

Espero que les haya gustado. Siéntanse libres de dejar comentarios y recomendaciones, compartir experiencias o comentar cuál es su flor favorita.

Gracias por leerme.


English version

Today's Inktober word is "enchanted". I wanted to do something simple, subtle. I have always been fascinated by tiny flowers. These small flowers that grow in the bush and have complex and beautiful shapes.

As a child, I liked to imagine that these tiny flowers belonged to an enchanted, miniaturized world, and that in some way or another they were the passage to a secret and unknown place, a magical universe capable of fitting into a pot, a universe in a nutshell.

The small flowers are still my favorites, the flowers of the bushes that I don't know the name of, the flowers of the aromatic plants, those of the cacti, they all still seem to me to be part of a tiny world that one day I will be able to reach.


Process:

The illustration process was given in three essential steps: first, the pencil sketch of hard mine and light stroke. Second, the delineated with 0.05 and 0.1 tip stylographs. And finally the watercolors, just a few drops of cyan blue and cadmium yellow, with touches of red.

I hope you liked it. Feel free to leave comments and recommendations, share experiences or comment on your favorite flower.

Thanks for reading me.
