The Nutcracker

Hi there. This is the most busy time of the year, at least for me, but I didn't want to miss the opportunity to share this image with you. This is the cover I did for The Nutcracker, recently released by EMI Records. It was great to have the opportunity to create my own version of this popular story. I also did all the type and calligraphic work so it was twice the pleasure. I hope you like it!
Best wishes for this Christmas and for the upcoming 2011! See you around soon!

Caparo, genial, muy hermosa tu versión. Estaba mirando la iglesita, y está muy buena para hacer una versión en madera. Si me decido, te envio foto.

saludos a la familia,

Hola Conde,

Que bueno que te haya gustado la imagen. Me sentiría honrado si la pequeña iglesia te inspira para tu trabajo. No dejes de mandarme la foto si lo haces.
¡Un gran abrazo!
