The starting point for this work are fragments of the Earth's crust.
It is a field notebook that studies several rocks (petrvs in Latin) that can be found in Portugal's territory.
The aim is to know the shapes, proportions, and colors of the objects under study, using both drawing and written annotations. The notebook is a first approximation to these rocks, an important moment in the process of creating a scientific illustration.
