Cars On Main

I love doing paintings of cars and of buildings. This one portrays late afternoon. There are a lot of reflections on the vehicles and in the store windows. I’ve used atmospheric perspective — the car on the left is bigger, giving the illusion of depth. The one behind it seems further back. When I did this piece, I broke the painting down into the shapes of each color or value, then painted them in. It was like putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
