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".

It's pure gold! I really like the color, it's very rich.
Hello Ron, long time no visit. It's been a busy month or two with work and recreation and family. Amazing stuff keeps going up. I will try and get down to the originals only if I can this weekend and say hello.
Um, by the way Ron, those forms kicking around; sign them and mail them asap...
I like the simplified layout Ron. Allows more focus on the play of color (dominant yellow is cool - I mean warm). Car is rendered expertly as usual. Hey I almost forgot about clive.. guess he'll be ice fishing soon.. If there's any left....
There is something about the yellow and gold tones that made this car come alive. I love the expression on the face of the car.Wonderful work...as usual!
a little toothy grin and a sidewise glance - very nice
Nice. Kinda looks like he's floating down a river of grass
I agree with NewNorth - this is pure gold - the 24Karat kind.
Thanks, N.N., rich is good.
Hi Clive.
Thanks W.K., I'm just fishing for stuff for the D.P.'s. Don't even check the numbers anymore just assume its red.
Thanks Madison, I probably should use golden hues more often.
Thanks B.J., I noticed that too.
Thanks Michelle, yes another in the Floating on Grass series.
Thanks Cara, actually digging up this old painting might cause me to use these colours more often.
Hi. First time visit. Was scrolling through as my husband looked over my shoulder. For his sake I had to start over and 'bink' each one. Great compositions, and handling of color.
Oh, and my husband says; "cool cars, great years!"
Thanks Silvina, fun to have you visit.
Finally made my way back up here!
I like how the rust looks on this one. It looks like the car has taken all th warmth from the sun and is holding it in.
Thanks Grimm, maybe I'll explore these colours a bit more.
i'm soo sad :(
Looks like this one's bobbing in the yellow grass!
Why so sad?
Hi Joan, its an old painting-just practicing.
no money and lots of stress :(
