The book
This summer I was commissioned to do the illustrations for the Chinese version of "Don Quixote". It was an honour and humbling expierience to illustrate this literature masterpiece, by Miguel de Cervantes.
Since we made a lot of illustrations, 30 in total, I have selected some of my favourite scenes of the book and split them in two posts. I also include some of the work in progress drawings :)
