A few scenes within the historic area at Colonial Williamsburg, VA.  I had the good fortune to spend five days here and got in quite a bit of drawing & painting.  The place is amazing to me and there are so many things to see and absorb.  Hopefully these provide some sense of what this place is like and I hope to share more soon.  I'm also hoping the inspiration and relaxation of this trip jump starts me into doing more here at home.  Hope you enjoy . . .  Don

  1. You are SO making me miss CW, Don! I only have a very few sketches of my times there, because I was usually there as a costumed reenactor.

    1. My husband graduated from the College of WIlliam and Mary (many years ago) and often worked in costume in Williamsburg and Jamestown. He was in the Common Glory and did restoration comedies at the Williamsburg Inn - ah youth!

  3. Your color blends in watercolor wash areas are lush and free! And yet, the overall effect, as Alex said, is clean & crisp.
