Goya and Dr Arrieta

I was asked why I was drawing when I went around a gallery the other day.
I told her it was for a book.
She said "oh, an illustration."
I said no, it wasn't an illustration, just like something which will compliment the text.
I said that these faces could be anyone's faces, that you could tell any story about them, that I was just looking for faces which showed anguish, which is the theme of this book.
