Hello there! I have not posted in a while, been pretty busy. I just finished this today and figured I would post for you to see. It is very different from my landscapes. I was in Norther Arizona photographing fall leaves for a recent painting Strawberry Creek, and came along this bridge. I walked underneath and found that the ceiling was made of brick. I noticed at the end some vines growing over it but did not realize they were wild grapes until I was right up on it. I loved the contrast of the grapes against the brick and the stong light. Tell me what you think. Thanks, Lucy.

Love this, Lucy! The colors, the angle of the brick, the grapes...everything 'works'! Well done. Mike

Lucy - beautifully done. I love the strong colours against the background. Even the leaves are very well done.

Hi Lucy...really beautiful...maybe add a titile to it for your art show...like "under the bridge" so that the viewer understand the angel of the brickwork...good luck!

I like how the vine is offset against the wall at an angle. Really neat effect. Very nice.
