Ernesto Caivano



Ernesto Caivano, an artist born in Madrid, Spain uses very detailed work in the three drawings below.  A similar theme of birds and wings seems to be very common in the drawings.  He seems to especially like doing a lot of detailed work in the wings with all types of shapes and designs.

 This first drawing by Ernesto, has a very pretty and large bird with some small branches along the bottom.  My favorite part of the drawing are the wings and how much small and beautiful detail there is. I like how the artist shaped the wings in a way that shows the movement of the bird in flight.  Another thing that I like that Ernesto does is make his paintings in black and white.
This second painting by Ernesto, is another drawing that has 2 different, beautifully done birds that are similar yet different in the shapes and designs along the wings.  The bird on the left seems to have fewer designs and shapes within its wings then the bird on the left.  I like that Ernesto could use almost any shape and design and place it on the bird and still make the bird look realistic.  Ernesto also placed a very interesting young girl in this drawing that seems to be admiring the beauty of the two birds.
This final piece of work by Ernesto is slightly different from the other two.  Although you can tell that there is a bird placed behind a beautiful flower, you can't really see its face but you can definitely see its detailed wings.  I like that you can see the way Ernesto does other pieces in his work other than birds.  I really like the large flower in front of the bird along with the realistic branches surrounding the bird.
