Under The Bridge by Julie Riker

16x20

This was painted as part of Camp Hill Plein Air 2013.  With several days of rain during the event, I found a nice dry place to paint where the train crossed under the highway bridge.  This is the largest piece I have painted on location and I did it in under 4 hours.  The overcast light filtering in from the sides of the bridge did not really change so I could do it in one sitting.  The subject matter is different for me and much more "urban" than one would think of in Camp Hill, but I had fun with it.

This painting will be part of the Daily Painter's July exhibit at the PA State Capitol, East Rotunda.
