The Washington DC Sketches - November 2017 #1 - Gent House

I traveled again to Arlington, this time to spend Thanksgiving with the kids. I took all my sketching stuff, especially my "tiny kit", the one that fits in my purse. I figured to get a lot of use out of it. Surprise surprise, the joke was on me. None of the museums allow sketching with wet media - pencils only (or some pen, if you rebel and sneak one out so the guards can't see you.) Anyway, this sketch is the first one I did on the trip, sitting outside my daughter's house on the corner of the front yard.  A little chilly, but bright and sunny. I especially love their happy new yellow door.
