I’m back in Edmonton after a trip to Sweden, and have some doodles from my time there. That’s me on the left, recovering from the very long journey over.
To give some context, I was in Sweden because my husband was hired to work at a huge swing dance camp that runs in a remote village called Herrang. Up to 1000 swing dancers from all over the world flood the hamlet for a month. They take classes during the day, then party all night at social dances. It’s like an Olympic village but the air is filled with nonstop jazz music. I was there mostly as a tag-along because the camp is just a cool place to be.
Why all the sketches of waitstaff? Because the weather in Herrang was terrible and I spent a lot of time in the bar.
Every time I travel I’m reminded that Edmonton is awesome! So I made this little celebratory sketch upon my return.
