This is a beautiful spot. Further up the hill is a little shack that sells light refreshments and drinks. You need refreshments after walking all this way from the main road to the top. But we cheated, we had our Car. I shale be painting another packhorse bridge that is at the very top. There is several Buildings up there, so I shale be painting a couple of those as well. Obviously, we couldn`t drive over this bridge, they were only built for Packhorses. There is a dirt road that you can use.
Hi Vic,
ReplyDeletevery nice scenary, and a nice bridge that integrates perfectly with the suroundings. Under of course the watchfull eyes of those birds! Mast have been a nice walk and it came out a nice oil painting as well!
really nice, remember me a Cuno Amiet (the fisrt works of him)
ReplyDeleteHi Mariano.
ReplyDeleteThank you my friend for your nice comment. I was pleased with this one for a change. I have just started another bridge. It is actually at the top where the refreshment shack is. Thanks again Mariano and all the best.

Hi Laura.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your lovely comment, and for mentioning Cuno Amiet along with it. What a painter that man was eh? I loved his painting--Woman in Garden. A bit of Van Gogh there eh? Thank you again for that mention Laura, and all the best to you.

Hi Vic,
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful painting. I especially like the figure of the gent walking it adds life into the landscape. My husband is always telling me to add people in my landscapes.
Your various shades of green are excellent. Well done my friend. I'll be looking forward to your next packhorse bridge. All the best to you.

Hi Joan.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your comment my friend. I do love this sort of subject. I`ve just started another one. Same area but up a bit further. I`m about to check on your latest, if there is one. Thanks again Joan and all the best.

Hi Vic,
ReplyDeleteThe countryside that you paint looks beautiful especially spotted with these charming stone bridges. The gait of the figure is so natural and I like the feel of the openess of the painting. Well done.

Hi Vic,
ReplyDeleteThe countryside you paint is beautiful especially with these charming bridges. I like the natural gait of the figure, and the feel of openess and colors of the countryside. Well done.
Thank you very much Sue for your welcome comment. It`s a coincidence that you mention that figure, ( Joan mentioned it as well ) because my eldest Son doesn`t like anything in a landscape, not even Birds. he likes to feel that he is in the countryside all by himself with only his wife with him. Your Animal paintings and drawings are lovely Sue, but I am still waiting for your landscapes. All the best.
