#OnTheDraw: Ben Heine illustrated Journey in Tenerife


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 secret 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.

Seoul by Night

A selection of photos I took in downtown Seoul, South Korea, a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed walking by night in the streets of the Gangnam district and visiting Seoul Tower (236m high). I was truly impressed by the beauty, height and style of every building in the city. I travelled to Seoul for a solo exhibition (view the photo report about this event at this link). I took all the photos in this blog post with the new Samsung Galaxy NX Camera.

VISAS, What a Pain !

An illustration I made for "Gavroche" (a French magazine based in Thailand) and that illustrates the difficulties to get a Visa for French people who live in Thailand' (work permit, tourist Visa to extend...) or for Thai people to go to France.
