Several years ago I came across a photograph of this wonderful stone bridge and house and thought that it would be a subject that I would like to paint. Having been born and raised in Los Angeles, I am always amazed by the history of England and the idea that people live and continue to create their own family history in homes that are well over one hundred years old. As I studied the photograph I could almost hear the rushing water, dark and muddy from a heavy rain. I thought about the many horse drawn carriages that had crossed the bridge and about the people who had come and gone long before I was born. This painting is one of my personal favorites.
