El Alquimista
The Booklounge in Roeland is hosting a silent art auction for Picador, and the proceeds are going to a lucky school to help stock their library. The illustration had to be in black and white and the theme is the art of the book. So I drew Santiago the little shepherd from one of my favourite books, The Alchemist. I recently finished reading it again, but this time in Spanish. Before you are overly impressed let me add that it took me about 5 months! But I did enjoy reading it in Spanish, and it seems appropriate seeing as the shepherd in the story is from Andalucia, Spain. If you haven't read it yet, do. It's all about listening to your heart.
