Late this past October I had the good fortune to make a visit to Fallingwater in southwestern Pennsylvania. For those not familiar, this is probably the best known work of architecture by Frank Lloyd Wright. It was a beautiful fall day with the leaves changing and the stream running fairly fast. I did my best to sketch this scene and to capture the mood of the day and place. This drawing with bits of watercolor added was done in a small watercolor moleskine.
