Pakenham Bridge

Maureen has been doing a lot of genealogy work in the Ottawa Valley in Eastern Canada. This old bridge is significant in her family history. It is the only one of its kind in North America. It spans the Mississippi River near its headwaters. Mo's family members are buried near a little church just behind this view.

She asked me to paint it for one of her distant relatives who has been so helpful to her with her research efforts. Acrylic on canvas 20"x 10" (Jan. 2009)
