Description
I spent two years sketching, learning and researching the history of Fort Snelling in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The Fort has stood and served many purposes for almost 200 years. Some of the forts history is very dark and I'll peel back the layers to get to the bottom of some of its, "complicated", history through my sketchbook and narration.
