The Sunday River Covered Bridge is commonly called the Artist’s Bridge.

The bridge, built in 1872, is a 100-foot structure that spans the Sunday River in western Newry in the state of Maine. The unnamed artist is John Enneking, one of America’s first impressionists. Before Enneking became a painter, he was Union soldier in the Civil War, who was captured and held as a prisoner of war. After the war ended, he relocated to Boston and threw himself into his craft. He eventually became one of the first Americans to paint in Monet’s garden (which boasts its own singular overpass, the iconic Japanese bridge over the pond of water lilies).

Upon returning to the states, Enneking became a specialist in New England landscapes, rendering the mountains and bridges of the region in loose brushstrokes and rich hues. He was fond of Newry and came often to paint in plein air by the side of the bridge. He was seen working in the structure’s vicinity so often that passersby began referring to the Sunday River bridge as the Artist’s Bridge. Today, a hundred years after Enneking’s death, both his paintings and the name endure.

Acrylic on Canvas

Painting

Acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas 20x20, abstract profile suggesting all effort to keep head above water, symbolizing the work and effort needed to overcome the difficulties in life each day. The strength of the colors suggest the beauty around us and our growth in becoming stronger and more vibrant in overcoming each trial.

Sculpture

This sculpture was a part of a series where I was investigating the human form in the media of clay. All of the poses were in a sitting position. This "Kneeiling Man" was the second.  "During the period that I was building these sculptures I needed to keep my mind and hands busy. I was grieving the passing of my dear mother.  Each of the poses in this series unintentionally reflected the inner "Conflict" that I was struggling with during the time.  Media: Bmix clay, white crackle glaze, Raku fired.

SDED-Cloud, 2023
Acrylic on canvas and canvas rolls on plywood
28 x 24 x 1 inch (71 x 61 x 2.5 cm)
My 2023 creations would not be accurately represented without this December 2023 last minute piece.
SDED-Cloud is trying to bring out the canvas from its natural 2D (flat) state into the 3D universe. Rolls of canvas are building a three dimensional shape that is way too important to just stay within the confined perimeter of a 24 by 24 inch space. The smooth visual transition tools from flat to 3D are, optical illusion, real 3D objects, and a controlled color relationship. The 2.5 dimension work is always a fun task to suggest it exists.
[With all due respect to the great architect Adrian D. Smith who designed the world’s tallest building, this art piece wasn’t inspired by his work, and was never meant to represent one specific structure, but rather all the great structures of the planet.]
