Painting, Oil on Canvas
Size: 48 W x 36 H x 0.8 D in
This portrait was painted for my grandparents using a photograph taken around 1957 by John Tobin in Richmond Virginia. They are sitting in a 1948 Ford Mercury. I started with a Yellow Ochre wash and proceeded with Burnt Sienna and Naples Yellow with some white for the steering wheel. For this painting I incorporated the use of scumbling to help produce a vintage look. Overall, the painting has a nice glow to it.

There is nothing like a good oil painting; the presence it demands, the way it hangs, the smell of it— even better if it is a composition that captures deeper meaning or draws forth feelings of nostalgia. Since I was a boy I have always enjoyed the creative process, especially in those last few brush strokes or lines when everything comes together and life makes sense again. Art moves me. To be a part of that movement instills a profoundness in my life that keeps me sailing fervently for the horizon of my next creative endeavor.
