Wasteland Buick - watercolor

watercolor, 2019

available, 11"x15"

      Just an old Buick left to its own devices on the prairie. I used a little thinned gesso to knock back some of the color intensity in the bottom corners. I like the look of the gesso rather than just lifting with a wet brush. There's also a considerable amount of dry-brush to get the lightest grasses.

      This is a piece that was finished the day before my recent inner ear trouble began. It took a few days to get it scanned and uploaded since I was out of commission for more than a week.

Coleridge House - watercolor

      This beautiful old house is on NC 42 just across from what is essentially a ghost town. Literally, if you were standing in this spot and turned around, you would see the brick shells of buildings that haven't been occupied in many years and just around this curve is the shell of the abandoned textile mill that was the backbone of this town.. Coleridge used to be a thriving little mill town with a small textile mill, its own bank and a few other businesses. All that's gone now. But a few people still live in the area and either farm or drive to large towns nearby to work.
