"The Washington Monument"
Oil on Canvas - 73" tall
On a trip to D.C. one summer I went to see the local sites and when I came upon the Washington Monument,
was awestruck. I saw it at night and with the display lights shining on it, it looked translucent to me.
I couldn't get enough of it visually. I wanted to try and capture some of that; I had to come home and
paint it. But since I am in the habit of painting alien landscapes, I felt compelled to add a couple of
flying saucers.
