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".

The sunny side looks dusty. I don't know if that's intended, but it looks rally cool.
I totally agree about the b/w thing. It strips a picture naked so you can see every pock mark and wrinkle right along with the smoother contours.
Thanks Grimm, if it looks good then I did it on purpose.
No up close analyzing for me today, I just love this painting because it stopped me and made me look longer. Really nice piece here.
be good,

Your always GREAT! What else is there to say........
Thanks Todd, I'll be right over!
Thanks Madison, that I'm cute and smart? Not old and dopey like my wife says.
You must spend a lot of time finding old trucks and cars, or do you recycle the same ones in different settings? Great job on this.
Thanks Joan, I do the cars as individuals and then I put them in bigger pictures. But lots of doing the same thing, drawings and characters, over and over...I have lots of reference material but I make up the majority of my paintings.
Nice. As usual.
Thanks Michelle, its just a sketch.
sweet. I like the headlights :D
Thanks N.N.,headlights not headlice...
Beautiful work. I've never worked in watercolor but it seems like a really challenging medium. Looks like you've mastered it.
Thanks Brendy, I've got a little bit of an idea, but I'm just starting to really learn.
I love the rosie blushes on the hood.
Thanks Michele, "rosie blushes" one of my favourite watercolour effects!
Beauty Ron... the orange blends into the truck very nicely (lost edges). A cheerful piece.
Thanks W.K. its an old one, just playin' with the paint.
