Last summer I was out for an early morning walk and happened to see an artist at work painting a mural on a bridge. Sandy Klein was painting spring flowers and birds on this bridge of art in the Old Mill district of Bend, Oregon. The beautiful artwork sprinkled throughout Bend accentuates its natural beauty.

Sure to make you happy even on a cloudy cold day! 😁
Sweet stuff! :)
Yes, it is!
I love seeing grey concrete beautified with the vibrant colours of murals, and even more when they have meaning, like on this bridge.
Yes, I agree. The vibrant colors are much better than boring grey concrete.
Grafitti needs a new name and new respect, don't you think?! This wall art is beautiful.
Yes, I agree!
Lovely photo; wonderful concept.
Thanks! I need to take pictures of the completed work on both sides of the bridge. Another artist recently painted the tunnel walls under the bridge.
