From Friends-De Amigos

Over the years I've been collecting drawings from friends. I will start publishing them here on a regular basis.

These drawings are from Jorge Sanzol.

"El Pibe" (The Kid) Sanzol was a VERY quiet guy who worked as a runner in a Buenos Aires ad agency. He used to visit an "atelier" I had in the sixties in Avenida Cordoba with other friends. Sanzol loved drawing and he was always drawing to get some feed back from us. I kept some of those pictures. When he drew these, Jorge must have been about sixteen years old. Later on he went to became a very succesful designer, cartoonist and illustrator. Sadly Sanzol died very young in the late nineties. I will always remember his very handsome face and his dry sense of humour.

Por muchos años he coleccionado dibujos de amigos. Ahora voy a empezar a publicarlos aqui regularmente.

Estos dibujos son del gran Jorge Sanzol.

Por esa epoca "El Pibe" Sanzol contaria con unos escasos diez y seis años y trabajaba de cadete en una agencia de publicidad. A la salida del trabajo se nos caia por un bulin que teniamos en la Avenida Cordoba y nos cebaba mate y dibujaba queriendo saber nuestra opinion. El pibe tenia un talento unico y termino convirtiendose en respetado y admirado dibujante y diagramador profesional. Tragicamente Jorgito murio jovencisimo al final de los noventa. Siempre recordare su gran pinta y su sarcastico y quieto sentido del humor.
