Two new Portland Opera drawings

The Portland Opera hosted me (and 16 other cartoonists) at a dress rehearsal for their new production, a double-feature bill of L’heure espagnole and L’enfant et les sortilèges, the only two operas Maurice Ravel ever wrote.

L’heure espagnole is the sort of infidelity farce in which amorous men hide in grandfather clocks. My drawing is of Don Iñigo Gomez, a banker with amazing hair.

The second drawing is from L’enfant et les sortilèges, in which a child winds up out in the woods and in some trouble.

You can see other cartoonists’ drawings of these operas on the Portland Opera website. And you can see drawings I’ve made at earlier Portland Opera productions here.
