It had been a long time since I had been in the fish market sketching. The visit of Enrique Flores and Antonia Santolaya to Mauritania and Senegal was the perfect occasion as I had the pleasure of taking them both there. You can check their drawings here. I had no time for portraits, as their visit to the capital was very short and they spent most of their time visiting the desert and the coastal areas.
