Local nature center painting

Our local nature interpretive center has this painted on the wall in the entry way. Nice accurate detail too, even has the CST door badge by the window.

Re: Local nature center painting

Very accurate rendering. Probably more than the rest of the picture. Are people allowed to back onto the dock like that?

Cool picture. They better check the load rating of that bridge!

Re: Local nature center painting

Is that local to your Iowa location or Minnesota? I ask because it is a very Iowa depiction of nature—it includes row crops, a Deere, and a pickup.

Re: Local nature center painting

I have a very similar bridge just down the road from me. The raid department is condemning it because it’s about a 100 years old. It will still stand but the state will assume no responsibility if you use it.
