Buildings in Saint-Sauveur, Quebec City

graphite on paper 10"x10"

I love this sweeping view of the neighborhood of Saint-Sauveur, Quebec City, especially the long ribbon-like shape of the street that stretches into the blurred distance. 

Perhaps like most of us, when I was a child I had a recurring dream of flying. In those dreams I felt an intoxicating mix of freedom and excitement, and I try and recapture some of that feeling in these aerial views.

  1. Beautiful lines. Very inviting. I love the sense of light, and the narrow range of values. Wonderful.
