Some months ago I had, once again, the privilege to do portrait-drawing at a festival, called “Diggie Feest” (Diggie Festival). A special guest this year was the famous Belgian children’s book writer Marc De Bel. He came to my table and asked if I could make a portrait of him as well, which I (of course) agreed to do. “I’ll try”, I answered, “but I’m not @janbosschaert”. He laughed and sat down.
Although he looks a lot younger on the portrait, I’m very proud I had the opportunity to draw him. He was a very kind, interesting person to be with for 20 minutes. Hope I’ll see him again in the future.
