Sketching around the Brisbane Supreme Court

Fun morning with the Brisbane City Sketchers, on a breezy but sunny winters morning.  We sat in the Supreme Court Park, and I wandered around the back of the court building to sketch Fiona Foleys controversial Silent Whispers.  Her work is a memorial to the many massacres of Aboriginal people which had taken place during the colonial settlement and expansion of Queensland in the early 19th Century. There are names engraved in pavers, 94 names, that are the places of the massacres.






My second drawing is of the historic McDonnell Building
