Hi everyone,

Another great day at the office!

This is another old truck that I saw around Taos. The big truck looms over the hillside which gives it more power, although I’m sure the power is gone in this one. In the shadows are some wonderful bright blues of varying shades. Another fun one to paint. What a great job I have!

I’m looking forward to the next auto that I will be painting, such fun.

I’m packing my paints to ship tomorrow. Last time I flew with my paints I forgot about the palette knives. The airlines don’t like them. So, I decided to simplify my life and the trip by mailing my knives, paints, tools and odds and ends that are heavy and questionable. That should make the trip more pleasant.

One more painting, then pack it up! Hope to find a couple of old vehicles in OR to paint.

Oh, by the way, I put together a little video of this painting as I painted it. I have it posted on Art Workshops Online. Check it out!

Talk to you later.

Becky
