EVENT | Live portraits @ Montreal International Jazz Festival

 
I was invited by SalesForce to draw some watercolour live-portraits at Montreal International Jazz Festival. Here are some stylish people I met that night, and we had some delight conversations about life, love, style and their dreams.
 
Summer breeze, music and lovebirds... Through the years, I've been wandering and sketching at Quartier des Spectacles (Place des Arts),  scenes of the Montreal Jazz Festival, which was the first festival and memory when I moved to Montreal in 2009. So drawing at this place while listening to Jazz, was quite emotional for me.
