17th st. in Dupont Circle

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

A busy street around the corner from my friend’s place where we stayed  in DC the other week. The blue newspaper box is of the famous Washington Post. A dog is tied to the dust bin while the owner popped into the store to get some food. Another piece where I experiment with technique.

M st. cab traffic in Georgetown, Washington DC

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

This is an oil sketch of M st., using a different method of painting from my usual one.  I feel a bit shaky about it, but what kind of judge is the artist to herself?

Bank building on the corner of Wisconsin and M st.

Another glance at the  notorious crossing of the streets in Georgetown.  Don’t remember the name of the bank – it changed hands several times.

New Hampshire ave. and R st.

Monday, January 26th, 2009

Another shot along the avenue of Dupont Circle. DC was planned in a way that  in most of the city, the streets are set out in a grid pattern with east–west streets named with letters (e.g., C Street SW) and north–south streets with numbers. (Wiki). New Hampshire avenue is obviously named after state and cross the grid diagonally from Dupont Circle. n short, it’s hard to get lost there.

Here is another capture of Washington DC’s Georgetown.  These are the lights at dusk of various high street shops and their shoppers cruising in search of a parking spot.

Wisconsin and M st.

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

This semi-abstract image of moving car totally mesmerized me for some reason.  The intersection also has a special place in my heart. This post-DC stream of work proves to be very nostalgic.

This is a snowed-in square near the George Washignton University in DC. I used to cross it every day on my way to work (walking!) from Georgetown.

Georgetown in Washington DC

Sunday, January 18th, 2009

Sorry for staying away so long from the blog. I have been on family visit to Washington DC this whole past week.  And I have to step away from my favoarite topic of all things Ukraine, becuase of the inagural spirit in DC was so contagions.  Here you can see Georgetown – the oldest neighbourhood of DC. It  is packed with beautiful Victorian houses  and I was lucky to live in one of them 2004-2006.  Loved this beutiful shadow on a crisp winter morning.

Two of my most visited landmarks during this visit in DC. Seeing my former colleagues at the World Bank was a total blast – I could not have enough of the local coffee hangouts and felt very-very happy to be back there again.
