Moscow, Russia
Ink and watercolour sketch of Moscow University (built in 1953). This is one of the eight “Stalin skyscrapers” in Moscow and represents a city within the city with completely independent infrastructure.
With -10C in Moscow it was too cold to sketch directly outdoors so I used my car facility. You can see a frozen puddle in front of the building — this is a stadium and it was like a mirror with almost perfect reflection. Though it was nice to sketch in a car, it gave a limitied view so I couldn’t get the whole composition into a picture. On a bright side, I’m not frozen to death.
