Many of my dreams revolve around rooms. Often they are under construction, with dry wall to be hung, or vast areas to be painted. Other times, we have just moved in and are expecting guests, and I still haven't unpacked, organized, or cleaned. On daily errands or long road trips, I often wonder what stories are happening inside the passing houses. Perhaps that is why one of my passions are historic home tours, where I can walk through rooms filled with the ghosts of past lives, as in this colored pencil drawing, "Lake View 1" of Rose Hill Mansion in Geneva, New York. It just won the Arthur Harliss Memorial Award at The Hudson Valley Art Association's 80th Annual in Old Lyme, Connecticut. www.hvaaonline.org | 
This is lovely, Linda; beautiful handling of the light from the windows.
