Musee Guimet Sketch

Here is another quick sketch from the Musee Guimet in Paris.  When I lived in Paris, I became a member so that I could go any time to do quick sketches of all the wonderful Asian artifacts there to keep up my drawing practice.  If you are in Paris, I would recommend a visit.  It’s a beautiful museum in the 16th, never really super crowded like the popular museums. There is a nice cafe on the lower level for lunch and an annex to to the museum down the street which houses more artifacts and a Japanese Tea Garden where sometimes they do Tea Ceremony.  This was a real respite for me when I needed a peaceful moment to escape the hustle and bustle.  If you live in Paris, I would highly recommend seeing some of the music and dance performances from Asian cultures from all over the world in their wonderful theatre space!
