 This
mural was completed in the autumn of 2004. Obviously
this picture resembles the classical
 Pennsylvania Dutch
covered bridge motif that can be found covering many of
the roads in the
 Central Bucks-Mont area. I
have grown particularly fond of this painting because
not only does it depict my favorite time of the year,
but also it shows a slightly original look and feel I
tried to create regarding the foliage of the trees.

I
also believe that the implied texture
 and weathered
colors of the bridge really help
this feature not stand out too much as the central focal
point. Finally,
I think that not only does the color and
consistency
 of the calmly flowing “lazy”
river really help to set the mood of this mural, but I
also think the nursing doe to her fawn on the opposing
side of the buck help this image
 have
a very strong family oriented appeal. |
