Shady Green


sold

Right before I left Eugene (for Texas, where I am now) I spent an afternoon wandering around my town looking for some simple scenes to paint. This was the very first thing I found - this cool, old green car sitting half in the shade. I love dapples, especially on green.

So far in Texas I have seen my oldest stepdaughter successfully married off, gotten thoroughly sunburned at Schlitterbahn (our favorite waterpark), visited family, and almost but not quite melted in the heat. Pretty much what I expected.

  1. This painting sizzles with awesomeness! Sorry I have not commented lately--life out of control. But this car has so much personality I had to salute it!

  5. Welcome to August in Texas!

    I love the cool blue of the shadow against the warm yellow-green of the car.
