At the Redpath Museum

Today I had the luxury of getting into downtown Montreal to do some sketching. I was hoping to draw something old or decaying, something distinctly un-suburban. Perhaps some old buildings or urban scenes. I met up with fellow sketcher Marc Taro Holmes for a great day sketching at McGill’s Redpath Museum. And I did manage to find something old to sketch… The Redpath is a beautiful gem of a museum on the McGill campus. It’s filled with collections of minerals, shells, fossils and… dinosaur specimens! Here are a few of my sketches (Gorgosaurus, Triceratops and Dromaeosaurus) and hopefully you will see Marc’s sometime soon at http://citizensketcher.wordpress.com/.
