Do you LOVE train stations too? 
Especially train stations in Paris... 
All that hub-bub. And the anticipation, the expectations! 
So much more managable than airports too. 
I saw Hugo yesterday based on the graphic novel, The Invention of Hugo Capret... 
It takes place in a train station... 
A Paris train station... 
What could be better? 
There are mystery sketchbooks in Hugo... 
And a mysterious automaton... 
AND Paris dogs. 
TWO of them - a perfect movie no? 
The perfect movie to see on New Years Day 2012 perhaps?
Do you know where you'll go? 
ALL ABOARD for 2012!
I have an assignment to draw Sempe-like figures running. I wish they were all running dogs instead...
Last October I visited the new Sempe exposition the day it opened at Hotel de Ville... 
The drawings are displayed in a casual, accessible manner... 
Making it easy to get up close and personal with each drawing... 
Jean-Jacques Sempé could be considered the iconic artist of Paris... 
His prolific, witty drawings capture that Parisien j'ai ne sait quoi... 
It's nice to see Sempe's daily sketchbooks... 
Plus his final drawings readied for the printer... 
If you need to draw a bicycle there's no better artist to reference... 
With Sempe's mastery of the quotidien urban life, be it Paris or New York, no wonder The New Yorker has made him a frequent cover artist... 
Crowd scenes are right up Sempe's allee... 
As are cats... 
Perhaps rather than dogs?
When you step outside into Paris' streets, they come alive with Sempe images...
