Manasses/ Bull Run Bridge. 9x12, oils on board.

Anybody that knows this bridge will know the history of it and will know why it has got this name. No, I`m not going to explain the history because there isn`t enough room here, and I don`t know it`s full history. But...

    Wow, this is a wonderful painting. I love how you painted the distant trees and you did an outstanding job painting the bridge. Excellent work my friend. Good luck with the Alex Perez competition. You will have my vote.
