Concurso callejero / street contest

Nunca había participado en un concurso de dibujo desde que salí del colegio. Este sábado pasado se celebraba un concurso de pintura rápida, y fui animado a participar por mi mujer. Yo era reacio a hacerlo ya que lo mío no es pintura estrictamente hablando, pero al final acabé convencido. Total, una experiencia nueva, me dije.
El resultado, tras más de tres horas bajo los ficus de la Alameda, es la imagen.que puede verse arriba y que , obviamente, no impresionó demasiado al jurado.
Aprendí que, en estos eventos, las obras quedan expuestas por la tarde en sus atriles en plena vía pública hasta que el jurado emite su veredicto. Aproveché la coyuntura para hacer el dibujillo de abajo y evitar el tedio vespertino.

I had never participated in a drawing contest since I left school. However, his past Saturday there was a fast painting competition at the city, and I was encouraged to participate by my wife. I was reluctant to do so because mine is not, strictly speaking, painting, but I was eventually convinced. Well, a new experience, why not -I thought. The result, after more than three hours under the huge fig trees in the Alameda, is the image you can see above. The jury was obviously not too impressed by it. I learned that in these events, the works are exhibited in the afternoon at their easels, openair on the public space,  until the jury renders its verdict. I took the opportunity to make this sketch you have below, in order to avoid the tedium.
