#OnTheDraw: An Illustrated Journey in Tenerife

By Benheine @BenHeine

Here are the final illustrations and some of the sketches I made during my 1 week journey in Tenerife, Canary Islands for Turismo de Canarias. You will also find in this post a selection of the best photos I took in different locations in the island as well as some backstage pictures showing my local partners (28 y Medio). It was a beautiful travel and a rich experience. All photos, drawings and sketches are copyrighted © 2014 Ben Heine. More information about the project can be found on www.onthedraw.travel.
