What a beautiful and noble character! (Sorry about the cliches) This is a truly wonderful drawing of an ambassador for a dignified race, now almost lost to us. The true ecologists and pantheists. (they say they originally came over from Mongolia across the Baring Straits) Brilliant drawing. Amazing detail. Nothing's left out! Fabulous!

Juan, I really like your style. Matthew Johnson said it better than I ever could. I must agree with him. Great work, my friend!

Juan, there is so much proud power instilled in this work, I can see the suffering n determination in the face, u have touched the spirit n brought it to life to speak without words, it takes flight like that of a free bird n silently crys out to ones heart. Excellent feeling. Peace to u n light.... Chris

Gorgeous artwork Juan.

i know your work juan and i find thise piece really interesting and the story behind it interesting as well, i think that the tonal ranges you get out of a pencil is a great skill of yours and is evident in all of your work, your drawings have a classical feel to them with a modern look, i dont know the exact genere of which they fall under but i certainly like them,you are a great artist.
