O' CANADA

parliament hill, ottawa


we got to witness the "changing of the guard"
at the war monument
the bag pipes always make me cry
i feel so lucky to have been born here

fierce creatures

as i walked up to the parliament buildings in ottawa i thought WOW,

this is going to be good

the architecture is amazing and there was so much wrought iron

as i moved closer i could see more and more details, everywhere

gargoyles, coat of arms, owls, beavers, rams, indians, thistles, fleur-d-lis,

fish, frogs, and mythical creatures!

i think i will have fun playing with all these images

i posted these fierce creatures for illustration friday

Happy Canada Day!!!
