Paris

I cannot find words to express how much I like this picture by Andre Francois from the late fifties. To me says more about Paris than any photograph can. Wonderful!

These images are for a children's picture book I want to make. Is there an intelligent publisher who wants to publish it? Let me know.

Leap Frog

Five pictures for "Leap Frog" Project of an animated short with music by Charlie Parker.

Lion & Boy

Pages from my sketchbook.

Early Pinocchio

In 1967 I drew this version of Pinocchio. I remember doing it in a period of great happiness. It was in the middle of summer and everyday I got up at 6 in the morning and drew for a couple of hours under a grapevine in the patio, then I went to work at the studio. The drawings aren't very good but I suppose they captured something of that happiness.

Trillo & Grillo

Pages from a comic book made in collaboration with the Argentinean writer Carlos Trillo. The story is about both of us returning to our childhood looking like two old kids.

Nobody notices that.

It was drawn in the classic style of the comics of our youth and printed in old yellowish paper.
It was completed a few years ago but remains still unpublished (Don't ask me why, ask the publishers)

Type

When I was a kid in Buenos Aires I bought a manual for lettering artists. It had alphabets in different types for you to copy. The period flavour is amazing. I still marvel at the beauty of these types...Above is a small sample.

Flipbook

In case you wanted to envy me. This 1939 flipbook has almost the complete animation of the Disney's short "Donald and Pluto". It is one of my most precious treasures.

Book Cover

This is a book cover I drew in Spain in 1970

Mrs. Masham's Repose

Having Illustrated "Gulliver Travels", the publisher asked me to do "Mrs. Masham's Repose" by T.H. White, the author of "The Sword in the Stone". In this novel, a young girl finds in the garden the Lilliputians brought to England by Lemuel Gulliver. Great book!

Gulliver Travels

I've illustrated this in Italy in 1970

(I wish I could do it again to improve it!!!)
