Paint out 2010- From Here to there- Historic bridges of Riverside

Benedict Castle

Victoria Bridge, Morning looking up, and afternoon vista
.
Victoria bridge is a beautiful old bridge built in the 1920's. In the morning I walked down and painted under the bridge looking up. The light was beautiful highlighting the lovely arches. In the afternoon I painted the bridge from the top area, looking across the top. I did not think I would enjoy painting bridges, but this week has not only been a challenge of painting these lovely structures, but I found out they were allot more fun than I thought.

Lastly the bridge at Benedict Castle, is also very old. Who would think there is a castle in Riverside. I sits in lovely surrounding of old palm trees and a canyon with a creek running though it. The old stone bridge crosses the bridge, with the castle in the background.
