The Delta, Buenos Aires

Barco Viejo, dip pen, colored inks and watercolor pencils, 9x12in

 Just North of Buenos Aires, the Paraná River forms a delta. There are lots of abandoned old ships, half sunk, that I find beautiful. If someday they are removed part of the character of the place will disappear. The small boats that transport wood, groceries, the boat ambulances, the garbage collection boats, all make it a very special place. The houses are built on stilts and have very interesting architecutural styles.
