I liked the feeling of my original sketch for yesterday's painting. It ended up looking to me like a hound dog panting and 'smiling' with its mouth open, and the steering wheel looked like one eye open. This truck looked rarin' to go to me. I thought I was going to paint it really loosely and keep some of that feeling but of course things don't always go as planned -- I got caught up in the lines and showing the form. I may go back to sketching first somewhere else separately beforehand so I can keep my original drawing -- if I can muster the discipline to do that. I'm a little short on discipline though so it might be needed elsewhere...By the way, Happy St. Patrick's Day! This truck is wearing green...grass.

I see what you mean about the drawing, Camille. It is just as beautiful as the final painting!
this is a great drawing. I love everything about it! Beautiful lines.
Superbe ce croquis, et je le trouve imposant, c'est très joliment dessiné. bon dimanche à bientôt!

Both paintings are so good! It's cool seeing the "bones" and the accuracy of the structure.
