Up the creek

It felt so lovely to sketch it out there as the weather now has waned and the humidity practically gone. Perfect for outdoor sketching!

The smells, the vibrations, the ancientness. Yesterday I discovered a most beautiful church and cemetery on Mount Royal hidden away in the woods. I know it might sound morbid, but I am tempted to sketch there some more as it is so peaceful and quiet as is expected, but there is also a certain beauty. Here is the inside, I know I overworked it again, as I hoped to capture the sunlight on just one pew in all its simplicity.
