The great old Sylvia Hotel again!

From Lori H. from Vancouver Island Sketchers 

The sketch is by Emma Fitzgerald from her book 'Hand Drawn Vancouver: Sketches of the City's Neighbourhoods, Buildings and People'. (2020) I came across this book recently and it's a delight. Highly recommended. Readily available, and it's also at VPL in hard copy or e format. Not only are the sketches wonderful, but even though I've lived here a long time I learned a few new things about the city too! She's definitely an 'urban sketcher'... there are anecdotes about the adventure of drawing on location.
