Saint Laurence Boulevard, F1 Weekend

These are sketches made during the mini street sale put on in Saint Laurence Boulevard for the F1 Race weekend. I was hoping the antique car collectors would have their autos out so's I could draw them, but no luck.





At least by drawing in my portable sketchbook, and carrying an umbrella, I was safe from flash rain storms. Not so the artists who drew on the pavement for the annual Nuit Blanche art event/street sale on nearby rue Mont Royal. As they finished hours of work on their large scale pictures, the skies opened up, and essentially washed the paint away. Hope they had a chance to take pictures. (better than this one!)
