"Bowman's Tower, Guardian of The Delaware" is my other pastel located in the "M" Portfolio, Phillips' Mill Community Association 97th Juried Art Show, 2026. The Mill is located at 2619 River Road, New Hope, PA.
This piece was done 99% en plein air on the bank of the Delaware River across from the Bucks County Playhouse looking south. The day was a tad chilly with a beautiful blue sky, the river running swiftly, and the occasional recreational boater going past. The Tower in the distance made me think of medieval times, when the castles were built high upon hills overlooking waterways. Even though the Tower was built between 1929 and 1931, the hill itself is purported to have been the lookout location for George Washington during the Revolutionary War.
I will be at Phillips Mill today, Saturday October 17 th from 1pm to 5pm. Do stop by to see this most amazing show featuring 100's of works by talented artists in both painting and sculpture!
