The rooftop chimney skins in the Palace Guell
are so beautiful — like sculpture gardens.
When the families lived in this palace,
I wonder how often they used the rooftop sculpture garden and for what —
did they have lunch on top or was this a
place for the servants and children?
The iconography is whimsical, and a wonder if Disney saw these sculptures? They are far more colorful than expected seeing the rest of the palace, upside-down ice cream cones and magical trees, or triangular mountains with giant lizards.

I started a Facebook group page (you must join to view) to allow everyone to share their virtual sketches, and also where we will, from time to time, take virtual sketch walks together. Come join us On Facebook if you are inclined!
If you want to know more about what a virtual sketchwalk is review my first post.
There are a few more notes/pointers on our first walk through Laguna Beach, California.
I also created an accompanying Flickr group!
