What better way to get back in the (art) saddle after a major move than participating in the 37th International Sketch Crawl! Couldn't ask for a nicer day. Yesterday we had a few snow flakes and today was a bit cool, but it was beautiful and sunny. This sketch is the view from our new condo looking over the Canadian War Museum.

"People" by Sculptor Louise Archambault. These sculptures were first conceived in the 1960's and displayed at Expo '67 in Montreal. They now have a permanent home at the Museum of Civilization in Gatineau Quebec, just across the river from Ottawa's Parliament Hill.

One of my favourite buildings is Architect Douglas Cardinal's Museum of Civilization in Gatineau Quebec. In the distance is Ottawa's Parliament Buildings across the river.

Looks like you got a lot of sketching done yesterday, good for you. I like how you got the reds of fall in your sketches and that you chose to draw large scenes. Great results! :clap:
