The Quebec provincial parliament building is huge.  The front of the building is actually the narrow side of the building and yet it’s a couple blocks long.  When it gets a bit warmer I hope to find a view where I can capture the entire face of the building.

On Tuesday, though, the temperature was border line so I decided just to draw the main tower over the entrance.  Even so, by the time I’d finished the ink sketch I’d cooled down enough that I felt the need to move so I quickly dashed on some color when I got home.  It was good to see the sun while sketching.  It’s been a long time coming.
