We had quite a nice day over here in Barcelona, besides a short spring shower after lunch.
A lot of new people came along and it was great to meet all of them as well as the other "veterans"!
Meeting point was Plaza Espanya, but pretty much everybody started drawing from the rooftop of CaixaForum, here's my view of MNAC from there.

After that straight up to MNAC steps, a lot of people was enjoying the views of the city.

Lunch time arrived and some of us ate our sandwiches in a park right behind MNAC and Fundació Miró started raining a bit and interrupted after-lunch sketches, we got shelter inside the Museu Etnològic de Barcelona, the next drawings belong to pieces of their permanent exhibition.
A ceramic vase called Jicara from SouthAmerica.

After the visit few of us went for a coffee in a terrace at Paral·lel, here's a sketch of Martí (one of our newcomers listening carefully to Lapin)

Just three of us left (Lapin, Martí & myself) headed towards the city center to enjoy the Nit dels Museus, after visiting the exhibition at the CCCB I sketched one of the visitors.

Before dinner we stopped by Barbier-Mueller's Museum of Precolombian art, where I did my last two sketches of the day.
A little Mixteca stone statue and an Aztec one.
