Illustrations of Washington, DC

I’m Roya, the illustrator behind Good Washington.​ Since 2016, my joy has been to archive DC, brick by brick.

My hope is that these illustrations take you there…

…to that birthday brunch at Florida Ave Grill that hit the spot, the bouncy second floor of Wonderland draped in humans + humidity, the window seat at Looking Glass where you and friends swapped stories over Combos, the winding aisles and tight corners of Capitol Hill Books, swaying with the crowd at 9:30 Club, and … fill in the blank.

We all know it; we live in a very good city with very good places and very, very good people. I hope you recognize some of the best in these illustrations.
