Original Creation

Sunny day in the shade, Columbia River Park

Oil on canvas | 11”x14” | This is my second plein air excursion. I chose a river scene because I wanted to the tranquility of the water. I am glad I chose this spot. While I enjoyed the experience, I found this bridge to be a real challenge especially since the sun moved a lot in the three hours I was here. I started with a quick watercolor sketch to frame the scene and then picked up the canvas and oils.

Really nice and the bridge is terrific!

A-WE-SO-ME! really catches the eye! Great colors! Great structure! water and trees are amazing! lovely you added blue in distant trees!

Love it! The bridge is really well done and I really like the introduction of painting on location to add to your experience and joy as well. Very well done :)

This came out great. Bridge looks awesome. Reminds me of my time as a bridge inspector.

Your bridge looks great, and I like that it has a smooth texture compared to you trees and water; it is a good contrast!
