Lockdown
A run of Marcelo Bielsa portraits drawn during lockdown, when football stopped and sketching El Loco was the closest thing to watching him available.
About the Project
A run of Marcelo Bielsa portraits I drew during lockdown, when the Championship was suspended and sketching El Loco was about as close as anyone could get to actually watching him. A global respiratory pandemic, it turned out, doesn't sit especially well alongside a Championship season.
Drawn entirely on the iPad, which became the only studio on offer once the world decided to stay indoors for a while.
Open any figure to inspect surface, print detail, and framing more closely without losing the overall sequence.
Sequence note
The closing plates are intended to read like a print-room pass: object, surface, and image held in sequence rather than treated as isolated uploads.
