Portoro’s secret by Otaner

I have to say so many things about this drawing. I started this by drawing live in a wonderful place a few kilometers from home, during a day spent with other artists visiting the marble quarries called Portoro. Each of us has participated in the artistic elaboration in a personal way and then these drawings or photos will be published in a paper fanzine by the artists of "OTIVM" and later probably exhibited in the museum. This is my job. The resulting artistic elaboration has multiple aspects, in fact you can see it as best your imagination suggests. Perhaps these figures are the silent guardians of mysterious secrets who built megalithic works here in ancient eras by now destroyed and collapsed into the sea, lost forever in the mists of time. Perhaps it is a congregation of philosophers who will come to that place to meditate, far from the chaos of future dystopian societies that will put them on the run by banishing them and who will create their refuge here. Or they still belong to a millenary caste of warriors who are playing in turns on a sort of galactic chessboard to decide the fate of our planet at this moment but in a parallel universe. #rdcontest

Watched the entire process. This took a lot of time, and the description sounds like it involved a lot of thought. There are 9 diffrent figures in it.
When you say it is your job, you mean putting together the fan magazine?

i like it, very figurative.. the tree in the background is a bit out of tone, it is almost too much, but you are very weird , so I understand. I also like your signature! :)

@madwurmz also ask @the$t* please I would like to know if he (she?) likes it ;-) and you need to know that there really is a tree in that spot! I went there in October 2021 and started this live drawing there

yes ok :) maybe the tree is real, but then the composition is not giving it enough space. the viewer wants to move the camera to the left to see more! I understand it's some nice place you life it must be tranquilizing :)
