Friday Photo Sketch: Ondaatje at the Ottawa International Writers Festival
This week’s Friday … um, image … comes courtesy of photographer John W. MacDonald, who attended Michael Ondaatje’s recent appearance at the Ottawa International Writers Festival, only to be told that photos were strictly verboten during the event. So MacDonald sketched the author instead. Read MacDonald’s account of the evening here. He plans to auction off the sketch to the highest bidder.
