Monuments: The Capitol

Monuments: The Capitol

Please text or call Annette at 240-535-0862 for price

My move to Washington DC changed my artistic point of view only slightly. I had been painting the architecture of Brooklyn New York, so naturally I would be drawn to architecture. In DC the mood was different. The ancient charm of the old brownstones was replaced by the grand and stately appeal of the National monuments. Also, the National Mall is a "white city" so I chose to render theĀ  Monuments as linocuts. I wanted also to bring them closer to the human experience and so incorporated flowers that found nearby. For the Capitol I chose the magnolia.
