IF: Transportation


I'm still away from home, but am taking advantage of a few rare moments of Wi-Fi in a Barnes and Noble. I see that the Illustration Friday topic is 'transportation' so will post this portion of a tapestry, where I wove an old car that may have been a 1938 Ford, belonging to my grandparents. It was one of the funnest (is that a word?) parts of the tapestry to weave!

We will go home tomorrow, and I actually have quite a few things I am anxious to paint when I get home. So rest up, easel and studio... You'll be smokin' when I get home!
