Veteran's Memorial - watercolor

watercolor, 2016

available, 9"x12"

      I don't know how often he does this. But this guy -- who I assume is a veteran -- rode this modern motorcycle with military livery to the Veterans' Memorial (monument and red, white and blue wreath at far left) in downtown Blowing Rock NC and sat in front of it for at least a couple hours the Saturday I was there. This is just a quick, loose sketch that I'm really not crazy about at all. But I thought this guy was worth a little paint.

      My sister is selling her late husband's Heritage Softtail and asked me to paint it. I'll probably do one or two more views later on.

I've been meaning to do some motorcycles for several years now. The engine detail always seemed daunting. The looser, semi-abstract style I've been developing is perfect for it, though. This already is one of my new favorites.
