Wynand van Niekerk as Downtown Sketcher captures city corners through vibrant sketches using fine liners, acrylic, and alcohol-based markers, bringing urban landscapes to life in Canada. His work inspires others to see beauty in their surroundings.

The sketch by Downtown Sketcher of the Fort Anne National Historic Site captures the essence of this significant landmark. Fort Anne, located in Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia, holds immense historical importance as Canada's first administered National Historic Site. This site was a focal point of conflict among Scottish, French, and English settlers, often involving the Mi’kmaq people. The fort's history reflects the struggles and interactions of various cultures vying for control over this strategic piece of land.

For Canada as a nation, Fort Anne symbolizes a pivotal chapter in its history, showcasing the complexities of early colonization and the clashes between European powers in North America. The sketch likely portrays the fort's architectural features, which stand as a testament to the turbulent past that shaped the region and influenced Canada's development as a nation. Glimpse into the layers of history embedded within Fort Anne and appreciate its role in shaping the cultural tapestry of Canada.
