While walking the streets of Williamsburg, I could only imagine what life would have been like in the 1700's. After all, it was in this very settlement that the seeds of democracy and a new nation were sown. It is this vision, of pre revolutionary colonial life, that I have portrayed in this painting. "Colonial Sunrise."
This scene features Williamsburg's best example of a colonial store on the left, The Prentis Store. This building was constructed in 1739-1740. Below the store are the George Oitt House, the Printing Office, Post Office and Bookbindery. The George Reid House pictured on the right was built around 1790. Beyond the Reid House sits the Orlando Jones House and Office. Orlando Jones was the father of Martha Washington who was the wife of the first president of the United States of America, "George Washington."
Both sides of the Duke of Gloucester street converge in the east at the Colonial Capitol Building.
