Sketches is a highly personal and intimate volume. It embraces sketches, idea outlines, notebook pages... Nothing in this book has been selected by chance, even if it does not follow any specific timeline. It contains what Javier Mariscal has wanted it to contain, using a selection process in which he himself has played with the images and shuffled them around until "they all sit happily with each other". Mariscal, in addition to rescuing these pictures from their retirement in old folders, decided to add a narrative describing in words the way he draws and he regales us with snippets of his life "in pictures" that provide the clues to understanding why drawing has helped him live his life, as well as inspiring those of us who have had the good fortune to be at the receiving end of his talent.
The first book to detail the work of prolific illustrator and designer Javier Mariscal, Drawing Life includes a wide range of Mariscal?s works, from his first commissions to current works-in-progress. Designed, written and illustrated by Mariscal himself, this volume showcases the huge scope of clients and collaborators that he and his studio have worked with, as well as his more personal and creative work. Drawing Life recognizes Mariscal?s enormously enigmatic style and significant contribution to the spheres of illustration, graphic design, product design and interior design.
