Yesterday I managed to get up early enough to sketch the view from my hotel window before going to work. I am staying in a place on the edge of Ankara, so there is lots of greenery around me (and the sound of birdsong each day), but this view looks back towards the city. The place with the dome is a mall called Panora.

Sunday was my first (and only) free day during my work trip to Türkiye, so I decided to do a bit of tourism and visited Anıtkabir, which is a complex of buildings (including a museum which I visited), housing the tomb of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk (the founding father of the Republic of Turkey). I did this sketch fairly quickly in the only shady spot I could find.
