Spring colour

Finally, I get to sit in parks, and draw things! This is that park on Ontario and de Lorimier. Not too pleasant looking at the busy five lanes of traffic east of you, but south, it almost hooks up with the Jacques Cartier Bridge. Plus there's a playset where a lot of the kids and families from all kinds of backgrounds hang out. Very different from the parks in the wealthier Plateau area. I've sketched this church before, and put it up on this blog. Note the careful attention to detail, and micrometer-straight lines. Actually, I was just trying to think of the fronts of the buildings as faces, to give them some personality. There's a fountain in front that has not been turned on yet. That will look nice. In fact, they've made a little natural ampitheatre area, in which I was sitting. I hope they use it for performances and movies and such, but not all the time.
