I started painting with watercolours in 1976 with a set of pans that I had left over from high school. I've always loved the shapes and colours of old vehicles as they settle in for the long rust. I especially enjoy creating scenes using characters I have collected over the years. These paintings are from my imagination. Check out the sales blog under "Links and Friends".

Hey Killah! I mean Rajah... good bleep'n job! Great background technique with a green wash. That's not easy to do without bleep'n it up... and you bleep'n pulled it off like the journeyman you are.. Oh the car rocks too... Your bleep'n amigo.... bleep
Colors rock and love those drippy evergreen against the black. Missing headlites look like eyes. This car looks like ron howard to me. you know how it goes--if it were a person it would look like. Yep, it's a ron howard.
Nice different greens and subtle red family in them.
Your paintings is conjuring up my old airbrush days when I did a lots of car paintings also.
Great piece!
i like how you managed to fit the car in the scenery and let it still stand out...lovely greens
well painted!!
Thanks W.K., I didn't realize how green my paintings were until I started this blog thing. However "going green" is all the rage up here-environmentally speaking. So I guess my paintings aren't polluters? Maybe they're not crap after all ...maybe they're GREEN!!!
Thanks, Michele, Ron has always been a friend I never really knew.
Why thank you, Kee, call me Mister Green..I never realized...all that green. And the comical part is I don't think I own a tube of green. But apparently green is my favourite colour. The things you learn about yourself. For the Daily Painters, they wanted us to describe all of our paintings in our "gallery" -subject, colour etc.. Mine were in the "cars, trucks, trains, transportation" category most often, of course. However in the colours department, it was green all the way. Thats when it struck me-"Ive gone green! Arnold would love me!"
Rob, you talented chap you, thanks for stopping by! I will say hello on your site.
Awsome auto Ron! If I wasn't color blind I'd say it was green.
What I mean is its a clean green machine. I agree with ya. The best way to make green is without using any green.
Robin, I can't help it, I've gone green.
