 " Wind Mill Creek Farm Footbridge"

An Original Watercolor Painting by Donna Berk Barlup

                   Susquehanna Valley Plein Air Painters were invited to spend an      

                     afternoon in Port Royal at a beautiful farm with a 1790's stone 

                     farmhouse by Nancy and Eric Olsen.  The day was perfect!    

                   We sat outside, painted and enjoyed delicious food and wine      

                    and good company.  We even got to take home a bouquet of 

                                   zinnias from their flower garden.

                  This little footbridge covered a culvert beside the old farmhouse.  

                                                 It was charming.  

                 Many thanks to the Olsens for sharing their home with the artists.

They were swaying in the wind.  And the way their stems curved and bent, it reminded me of a dance.  Their bright orange-red flowers seemed so large on those delicate stems.
