Description Guasche on watercolor paper. The sky at the top extends about another inch, my scanner is just too small to pick it up. Painting is approximately 8x10 and took me 7-8 hours to paint. Sold for $100.

Painting #2 in my collection of antique cars. The car is a 1926 Willy's Knight owned by a couple with the last name of Jaeger.

I used a lovely photo by Mircat ([link] ) for the background. It's apparently a photo of Twin Lakes Beach near the mouth of Santa Cruz Yaught Harbor. Thanks so much for letting me use your photo!

look like there is much detail work in this and usage (esp layering and mixing of color).

Interesting. I like the car. It's well done.
The sky looks a bit strange.
The islands are very good.

Nice use of colors, but I feel like you shouldn't have left the space of blue sky above the clouds....

I really like the texture of the ocean, the clouds, and the positioning of the sun with light shining through
