This is a drawing I did in Egypt. The faces of the old time locals where very lively and deeply textured with character and layers, specially the older ones. Somehow Bay street Toronto doesnt quite do it. (sorry for the sarcasm there)
These kind of people are as much part of Egypt as the desert, Nile and monuments. Living links to a heritage, a past and a depth of character. The stories they could tell.
The water colour looking streeks are actually red wine, Omar Khayam to be precise, my favourite Egyptian wine.
