Sketching in Canada

Florian and I traveled to Canada recently to visit my family and attend my cousin's beautiful wedding.  We spent two weeks sightseeing in Quebec City and Montreal-- I had not been back to Montreal since I went to grad school there ten years ago, had not seen Quebec City since a family vacation some 18 years ago, and Florian had never been to Canada before.  What a beautiful, festive, interesting trip, exploring old neighborhoods where I used to live, reconnecting with family members I do not get to see nearly often enough, wondering about what life would have been like if I had not left grad school, feeling grateful for the successes that I have enjoyed between 2009 and 2019 regardless, showing my husband new places, introducing him to more of my family, sharing more of my background with him.  With the help of my adorable pocket palette, I did a sketch each day while we were there.  Hope you enjoy this tour in sketches!
