I’ve had a lot of fun with this painting. I really did see this car with the tree growing out of it, although I’ve exaggerated that a little. I’ve been doing so many people paintings lately for the upcoming Russell Show, and at times they can “beat me up”. It was rewarding to paint this rusty bent up old car instead. The subject is much more forgiving! It’s funny that the things we wouldn’t want to have in our backyard or view shed are often things that do make good paintings! This piece is 16″ x 20″ and an oil.
