    1. I get lost in the ink sketch. The color is almost an afterthought that usually saves the image from becoming a spiders web..

  4. Oh definitely the essence of summer in Paris here, Anthony!
    Just gazing at these wonderful sketches makes me feel as if I am actually there...I feel the warmth of the sun, the coolness of the water.
    I love these. :)

    1. It was a very hot and crowded place.. I loved being there. A nice cool breeze, maybe a little rain to reduce the crowd? I guess I shouldn’t complain.
      Thank you
