Antonio, otherwise known as Pastor, runs the restaurant/cafe/bar in the main plaza in Jimena, called Pastor II. His other bar is just around the corner. It is a popular gathering place for coffee and gossip in the late morning, and, although the service is not fast, the coffee is very good. I think he has an interesting face, and is part of Jimena, so I wanted to draw him, especially as I am practicing drawing people at the moment. Of course, non-Jimenatas will have no idea if this looks anything like him or not! I took some pictures to work from and he was very flattered, in fact I think he thought he’d pulled as he then sat with his arm draped round me…. 🙂
This IS Pastor, without a doubt, perhaps a bit younger than I see him but he won´t worry about that! A real Jimena character captured.

I can’t comment on whether or not it looks like Pastor, as I have not had the pleasure of meeting him and trying his coffee.
I can say he looks a lot like this bloke who lives around the corner from me, who considering you have probably never met, makes it all the more impressive that you got his likeness.

Oh dear, over-amorous models, the lengths we artists have to go to! Lovely drawing though.

Very good, Wendy. I love the expression and so he thought he’s made some points with you after the photograph. Very funny.
