Another of the multiple sketches I did while in Colonial Williamsburg.  I hope it doesn't become too repetitive seeing some of these images but my wife and I really enjoy the opportunities to visit this special place and it was true joy for me on this trip being able to get as many sketches as I did.

Pen, ink and watercolor from my small Koi travel watercolor set.    Don

    Thanks Michael - I am a designer although not an architect.
    Thanks as well Barbara & Kate - I was real happy with the way this one turned out and I tried to have fun with color throughout the sketches I did on this trip.

    Many of the roofs in the historic area are covered in a thick layer of moss and it adds a patina to the buildings that is amazing. That was my real inspiration for playing with some of the colors that I did.

    Great that you were so prolific. In my opinion, the more drawings done, the better the vacation. I love each and every one of the series you've posted recently. Your colors are opalescent.
