Irishman Covered Bridge

Whenever I'm in Terre Haute, I go in search of a covered bridge to paint!  I think Parke County has the absolute best maintained covered bridges, making them perfect to paint.  The Irishman spans the water between a campground and frontier village in Fowler Park.  While Mom naps at our room, I got this one painted in ink and watercolor, and was back before dinner!  What a lovely paint break in this busy travel day!  Painting number 5113 in 5113 days. 

Irishman Covered Bridge

I just can't drive close to a covered bridge without painting it, so I headed over when I got the chance! The Irishman covered bridge connects the pioneer village to Fowler Park, and is well maintained.  Many were enjoying this place, visiting, fishing, walking and camping - much more activity than during Covid.  Mom and I first visited here while dropping artwork off at galleries two years ago.  With only a little time, I painted small and then took a speed walk on the path through the cottage. I found several places that would make perfect paintings, but alas, I'm out of time. LOVE painting the covered bridges of Indiana!!
