At the beginning of my second year at the McGill University School of Architecture, in August 2025, I took part in Sketching School — a week-long intensive held in Quebec City. It was a memorable experience spent sketching and painting from morning to evening, surrounded by friends and classmates, guided by two inspiring instructors, and immersed in the historic atmosphere of the city’s old center.
In these works, I chose my color palettes intuitively, selecting hues that reflected the light, atmosphere, and emotional tone of each moment rather than aiming for strict realism. This approach allows me to return to the pieces later and reconnect with the same spirit I felt when I first captured them. Below are some of my favorite works from that week.
