Fredericksburg Sketches A visual Celebration of our community
By Paula Raudenbush
Old Dominion Power Plant Happy New Year! Hope 2022 is a good year for all of you. If you follow this column, you know that urban sketching is a form of reportage. This just means that we record the gritty along with the beautiful and everything in between. Last month I sat in my car (because it was cold!) and sketched the old Dominion Power Plant in all its dereliction. There have been many rumblings about big plans for this building for years but, to date, nothing has happened. I've wanted to sketch it for quite a while and I'm glad I finally got the chance. I hope to go back and do more just because it's got lots of interesting bits that are fun to sketch. I would love for any of you to join us if you ever get the urge to go out in the world and sketch what you see. Meanwhile, I will continue to share my work with you. Cheers!
