ABSTRACT
Process First, I only had his face in mind. For me, the face of a character, and specically the eyes, are more important than anything else. Since I wanted to stick to the original concept of his appearance, it was easy for me to sketch (Fig.03), but a simple portrait wasn’t enough, so I tried a few poses before deciding on an almost statuesque one, draped in heavy fabric akin to the iconic images painted by the great masters (Fig.04). It also echoes a scene from the book, one that I have always been very fond of.
