Sirena / Siren (inspired on The Odyssey and Silent Echo)

Bueno, ¿y por qué elegí ese libro? Sólo una palabra. Mitología. Sí, y si queréis saber más, leedlo ;)
Mi Sirena está hecha con tinta y lápices de colores sobre papel Canson de tono medio.

Finally you can see my last illustration: a siren! (not a mermaid, but the kind of "old siren" that appears in Homer's Odyssey). Anyway, everything began when a friend of mine asked me if I wanted to donate something for a giveaway she was organising in her page. So, as her page is about literature, I thought the most appropriate thing to do was an illustration based on a particular book she was promoting: Silent Echo.
Well, why did I choose it? Just one word: mythology. Yes. And if you want to know more, just read it ;)
