Coincidí allí con Abril Morillo, que ilustraba con soltura todo lo que le solicitaban los asistentes, y con los chicos de Rantifuso. Un día estupendo que empezó en un chiringuito a la orilla del mar en compañía de Joaquín, Charo y Helena, de Atrapasueños, y María, de 100 Hormigas.
(En Conil, hasta a las cabras de la playa les gustan los tebeos.)
Aprovechando mi paso por Andalucia occidental, Joaquín Recio me invitó a la presentación de su libro Diego Cañamero Valle, El hombre con los pies en la tierra, editado por Atrapasueños. El acto, celebrado en el centro obrero Diamantino García de El Coronil, contó con la presencia de muchos referentes de la izquierda andaluza, que cayeron retratados bajo mi rotulador inmisericorde y que, a pesar de todo, me invitaron a comer.
Last Saturday I gave a talk at the VI Feria del libro José Velarde de Conil de la Frontera, Cádiz. This year the fair was organised around the topic of comic books, and I was asked to give the prizes to the young artists (all of them girls) who had won the competition. I met Abril Morillo, who kindly draw sketches for anyone who approached her, and Rantifuso were also there.
It was a glorious day, and I enormously enjoyed the setting: a chiringuito or beach hut at the sea's edge, where I had the pleasure of meeting Joaquín, Charo and Helena (from Atrapasueños) and María (from 100 Hormigas).
As I was around in that western end of Andalucía Joaquín Recio asked me to attend the book launch of his work "Diego Cañamero Valle, El hombre con los pies en la tierra", published by Atrapasueños. It took place in nearby El Coronil, at the Diamantino García Social Club. There I mercilessly draw pictures of key figures of the Andalusian left who were present in the event. In spite of this, they even invited me for lunch!
