Excellent. I like that you include the little children in your pictures. Very talented. Thanks again for sharing.

Great work, thanks for posting. Maybe you should contact a puzzle maker for using them.... Would make great presents for Grandpa!

Hi 15max.
Your personal profile doesn’t say in what industry you work. Infact you don’t have a personal profile.
If it’s not art you should make it art. I’d like a copy of the trashed A with the kids playing in it and on it. Can I purchase one please?

That is really good.

My friend's wife did a watercolor of my green car for me as a birthday present last year. What a cool surprise. A very special gift, for sure. I'll see if I can find a picture of it to post.

I'd love to see it. Post it on this thread if you can find it.
I should mention that I'm not selling paintings or prints. I just do it for fun.
I'm just a retired car nut.
Thanks

I kind of liked the reflections in this one. We had a member that liked the accessories.

Looks a bit like the playground at my first school in Idaho. There were about ten old car bodies sitting together on the bank of a creek. A grass fire had caught them at some point so there wasn't much wood left and no paint. All the bodies were just total rust buckes but all had running gear. Scrap drive of WWII got them all. Dodges, Fords and Star are the only names I remember being there. No closed cars that I can recall.

Great effort on your part! Are the children related to you?

All of those paintings are beautiful you should consider possibly making a calendar with them.

The children aren't related but taken from some photos on the internet.
We have done some calendars over the years. They are fun.
Thanks for the comments.

I had an artist paint a picture ( mural ) of my mom and dads service station across the front of my storage barn. Mural is 8 ft by 40 feet. We then added about 6 cars from my fleet and then we inserted pictures of my deceased relatives. A show piece in my community. Have a look at my album. Wayne

Very nice work! You have a talent. It reminds me of when I was a teen in the early '70's. I raised fancy show pigeons and traveled the state competing in shows. There was a young woman out of So. Cal. (Diane Jacky) that also had pigeons and went to the shows and did painting on the side. Next thing you know, her artwork of pigeons was in high demand and her paintings were featured on national and international magazine covers. Wouldn't it be great to get paid for something you enjoy doing?

The kid is drinking Coca-Cola. We used this one for a Christmas card in 2017.
It is nice to hear those stories.
