Washingtonian is keeping you up to date on the coronavirus around DC.

For the past five years, Carlos Carmonamedina has been illustrating weekly postcards depicting sites around DC. The artist is now turning his collection into free coloring pages for some downloadable entertainment and art therapy.

“The general intention of the [postcard] project and even more so with the coloring pages is for people to to rediscover the city and recognize the space that they’re living in, even if they are inside their homes,” says Carmonamedina.

As the quarantine continues, Carmonamedina will keep posting coloring pages on his website. In the meantime, grab your colored pencils or crayons and download some of these city scenes:
