ALMOST THERE

An Original Watercolor Painting

ABOUT THE PAINTING
This watercolor painting immerses the viewer in the experience of crossing the Pell Bridge, with the vantage point from the driver’s seat as the bridge stretches out ahead. The view is expansive, with the towering steel structure rising above, its cables sweeping elegantly across the canvas, leading the eye toward the horizon. The cloudy sky is a soft gradient of cool blues and grays, casting a tranquil light over the scene. The sense of motion is palpable as the viewer feels themselves moving toward Newport, the city barely visible in the distance, shrouded in a light mist. The bridge’s road surface is captured in delicate washes of gray and white, with the soft curve of the bridge giving a sense of elevation, while the distant coastline begins to emerge through the cloud cover. The overall effect is one of peaceful anticipation, as the traveler crosses from the open water to the welcoming embrace of Newport, with the gentle beauty of the cloudy day providing a calm, almost meditative atmosphere. It's a view well known to those who venture to  Aquidneck, and now it is captures in a watercolor piece!
