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".

Looks like there's some junk in that trunk!
Ooooo...I like this - those low dark clouds and that classic blue on the car - very nice.
I like the cloudy sky and the drama in this piece. The lower rust on the car is a small detail that adds it's own statement. The blue is "perfect" against the sky.
This one is rustified 100% correctly. That's exactly where old Buicks begin to crumble. A classic!
this one looks so nice, even thought the car is falling apart...the ceiling falling in and all :)
My pick of the week for auto works. The sky blue on the car is visually appealing. Strong on all accounts.
low clouds on the mountain are awsome too.....
Thanks Grimm, yes there is/was.
Thanks Cara, this car appears later in a coupla pictures.
Thanks Madison, it was this colour in real life.
Thanks B.J., I will have a glow on all weekend knowing that I rustified correctly.
Thanks N.N., its a beautiful wreck.
Thanks W.K.,I'm desperate for stuff for the DPs, I may actually have to paint something. Nah, I'll just go take pictures of my paintings that other people have.
Love the fins. Why don't they design cars with fins anymore? Nothing gives a car more character than fins! 50 years from now I doubt there will be anyone painting the cars of today. They're just so BORING!
At least you can keep the memories of cool cars alive in your paintings. Good job.
I love the color of the car! Great sky!! I guess she's going to get a good shower.
Thanks Michelle, the old ones are fun to paint, when I started it was mostly 30's stuff, now I have moved up through the fifties and a little 60's.
Thanks Joan, colour provided by W/N cerulean blue.
