Toronto 2013, Part 2
Sunday afternoon, I tried to catch the Toronto Subway Sketch Group that meets on Sunday afternoons at Union Station. Unfortunately, the website didn’t specify which end of the station we were supposed to meet at. Granted, I was a couple minutes late, but I tried to find by dashing in and out of the cars in between stops. In the end, I gave up and went about my own sketching endeavors. I did find a nice bowl of ramen over at Santuoka Ramen.
- Tried to catch the Toronto Subway sketch group, but I couldn’t figure out which end of Union Station to meet at. Here were my attempts as I tried to chase them down with no success.
- My first attempt at the atrium at Eaton Centre near the fountain. Eventually, I had to stop because I got overwhelmed with all the information in front of me.
- My second attempt after taking a break.
- A quick sketch in between stops of an elderly woman with her luggage.
- Comparison with Eaton Centre.
Tuesday morning, I went to do some work downtown at a cafe before we were to meet up with Olwen’s friends for dinner. After I rendezvoused with Olwen for lunch, we stopped by Sugar Beach near the George Brown campus. It’s an artificial beach constructed adjacent to a sugar refinery, hence the name. While there, I had a nice chat with a student named Rose.
