Room With A View

Last week, I stayed in Paris for some duck work related things. And this was the view from my hotel-room: (We had beautiful weather, hadn't we?)

Oh, I forgot to mention that this very off-hand critter scrambled out of my sketchbook and then right out of the window. He must be still somewhere there on that clocktower of Gare de Lyon.

  1. I like the creature, I think there definitely needs to be darker shadows since you can see how dark the shadows are on the building ornaments. I like the design and placement of it all, good stuff sir!
