Back to the real Hangar 51

Muebles Ram

It's been a couple years since we came to Muebles Ram for the first time. It doesn't appear in the tourist guides (thank goodness!) but is one of the most fascinating places in Barcelona and is the place where the Ark Dr. Jones brought was actually put away (the final scene of the movie was just to mislead). The problem is that no one can find it now. But it is here. I know. Here's everything.
This time I was late and only had about an hour to draw. When the place closed and we were graciously invited to leave, I had almost ended the line work, and only left the little glasses of the disco ball and the basket rushes to do. I took a picture and colored it at home. I don't use to add color so carefully but this time I thought it was worth.

Fantastic - and I love the story too!

The eye makes endless circles in this Miguel. It is probably like being in the actual place — the longer you stay the more you discover. Same in the drawing: I want to move things aside to see what is behind them.

What materials did you use for these pieces? They're stunning.

A strangely arresting image! It really makes you stop and search. Love the earlier bike sketch too.
