Hello again painting fans.

This week I will be continuing with painting of the 1937 Rolls Royce.  The photo that I will be using is seen directly below. I will be using my usual acrylics on an 9×12 gallery-wrapped canvas.

 When last seen, the painting appeared as it does in the photo seen directly below.

Since that time, I have continued to work on the painting.

There are many changes this week.  I’ve revised the car a bit.  The yellowish rear door is now less bright and more in keeping with the rest of the car.  Ahead of that door, I’ve added a reflection haze to the black paint similar to the front fender.  This was accomplished with some thin white/gray paint.  The same has been done to the rear fender.  There are several components that now have a hard outline.  To the rear of the painting, the hills/bushes have been completed as well as the flat areas before them.  I’ve also adjusted the roadway centerline a bit.  Finally, the bark of the palm trees has been reduced in color intensity by applying the same watery white/gray used on the car body.  The painting is now completed.

The current and final state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.

I’ll have a new painting to show you next week.  See you then.
