Hey there )) shame on me! But now I'll show some sketchbooks again!
I traveled around and I drew sometimes directly sur place. So I'd love to share something with you.
For a while it's just some scattered pages from scattered sketchbooks. But please NOTE that I'll make the particular posts dedicated to all these places
in details! I promise.

Cathars temples
These are 2 cathars temples, ones of the "Five Sons of Carcassonne" along with Aguilar, Termes and Puilaurens: Queribus and Peyrepertuse. They are regarded as the last Cathar strongholds.
Château de Queribus - built in ~1230
High and isolated, it stands on top of the highest peak for miles around
Château de Peyrepertuse (1240) -
a ruined fortress and one of the Cathar castles located high in the Pyrénées in the commune of Duilhac-sous-Peyrepertuse, in the Aude département
