Such a glowing red to this old truck. Your subjects always have such strong personalities that they always seem to have a name. I am interested to know if, as you are painting them you feel a very close relationship to your subject - or is that a silly question? Somehow you do more than just 'paint' things.
I love your wet into wet style of letting the colors do their thing. I know this takes a lot of skill not to get a muddy mess! I am going to my first ATC meeting near here tomorrow. I made my Zentangle challenge this week an ATC size, too. The ATC challenge is "Hit the Books", so I have to do one tonight.
Hi there - just popped in from my blog (thanks for becoming a follower?)to see yours. Oh My your paintings are absolutely fabulous they are awesome. I'm following you too now. I was just wondering how you came to visit me? Hello from up here in the north east Ontario:-)
Such a great truck... my Brother has just inherited our grandfather's 1952 Chevy Ute... and this reminds me of it... great rendering and love your sense of colour...xx
OH my goodness, this is the cutest truck EVER - all the way to the reflection on the windshield! SO well done.
