Another heavenly day snatched from the jaws of normally chilly autumn in Paris. Here's an assortment of images from today.
Egyptian antiquities at the Louvre:
Lunch at Cafe Denon, former donjon of the Louvre:
Afternoon at the Tuileries gardens:
In the garden of the Musee Rodin:
Thank you all! I wish you were here, too! We could have a huge sketchfest! R, I went to the beautiful Guerlain boutique on the Champs Elysees but did I draw it? Non. It is a tiny place and I am tall and I take up room when I draw. So voila.

These are all so lively, and I totally love the colors in the Tuileries trees!

amazing how many sketches you're able to do! these are so wonderful to see Laura, I am so impressed that you capture so much so quickly and accurately and that they're all so beautifully composed on the page too, the Musee Rodin drawing is fantastic and a great viewpoint at the Cafe Denon.

L, love the drawing of the garden at the Musee Rodin.
Um, you are going to do the interior of the Guerlain flagship, aren't you?

That lake drawing is fantastic. The trees, the buildings in the background, the fountaina and statuses let alone the people relaxing by the water. Just wonderful. Ok, so are you photographing your journal or do you have a portable scanner.
