While we were in the area of Niagara Falls we made a day trip to Toronto. I made a journal page after this trip and my drawing is part of that page. We notice a lot of sculptures in the medians of the streets and roads. In the Oriental district where we had lunch, there were these marvelous dragon sculptures. I took photos and made this drawing from that photo. In the distance is my sketch of the CN (Canadian National) tower and a few city buildings. Since it was a collage page there are a few pieces of photos that I added.

ReplyDeleteThank you Lynn.
DeleteFran this is so creative. it can be used as a newspaper spread or magazine! I really like your colors and the dragon that circles around it. Chinatown is everywhere and we had one in our country too :)
ReplyDeleteLovely colourful page, and I love the contrast between the city buildings and the mystery of the column with the fiery dragon twined around it. This is a great way to include so many slices of memory into one artwork.
ReplyDeleteMuch life in this collage, wow! Great work of yours.
