From My Sketchbook... "An Afternoon Downtown"




July 2 was a beautiful, warm, summer day after a rainy and cold "Canada Day". I spent the afternoon downtown in Fredericton with a friend. We sketched these three sights. I wish I could post her drawings too. She does a great job at capturing things in a more realistic way, whereas I draw things more graphically and it's interesting to compare both results.

It's also nice to reminisce about summer during the dreary days of November :)
