A wondrous study of light by Donald Dodrill, this original watercolor painting by Columbus, Ohio illustrates a scene of the historic Columbus neighborhood of German Village. Bright sunlight dissipates through tall green trees against a classic brick home and a lush green yard surrounded by a wrought iron fence.
About the Artist:
Donald Dodrill (1922-2017) was a artist and educator who spent most of his life in Columbus, Ohio. He was born in Delaware County and attended Marion Business School, where he would meet his future wife and business partner Winifred. He received his first opportunity to work in commercial art before being drafted into the US Army and was deployed for 33 months. After returning home, he attended the Ohio State University and received his BA in Fine Arts. He then started his career in commercial art and advertising, partnering with his now wife from 1954-1999 to form a commercial art and advertising studio called Dodrill Design. In 1974 he earned his MFA from Syracuse University and began teaching graphic design part time at Capital University while he had the role of Director of Windon Art Gallery, managed by his wife Win. He was a charter member of the Ohio Watercolor Society, a lifetime member of the Central Ohio Watercolor Society, and a signature member of the American and National Watercolor Societies. He and Win published an art book featuring 150 of his watercolor paintings in 1989. Passionate about watercolor techniques and his community, Don taught painting and drawing classes in Upper Arlington, serving on the Upper Arlington Cultural Arts Commission and elected in 1996 as UA’s First Honored Community Artist. He co-founded the Upper Arlington Labor Day Arts Festival which has had over 50 celebrations.
