“Melancholy is largely an emotion that makes you drop your arms, hang your head, feel like a coat hanger holding up your own body.”
— Jayson Greene
Em termos de técnica inspirei-me nos céus incríveis, em aguarela, de Jean-Jacques Sempé, uma das maiores referências na minha ilustração. Admiro o seu trabalho cada vez mais. É um verdadeiro génio! :)

It's been some time since I saved this in my notes. When I first read it, I knew right away that I had to illustrate it. Not only for the theme, with which I identify myself, but for the description, visual and affectionate, of what I feel to be melancholy. A certain amount of melancholy has always been present in my work, which is very characteristic of me... ☺️
In terms of technique, I was inspired by the incredible skies, in watercolour, by Jean-Jacques Sempé, one of the biggest references in my illustration. I admire his work more and more. He's a real genius! :)
