Chain Gang

I brought home some tomatoes-on-the-vine and decided they would make a great painting. Once I was finished, they reminded me of the old chain gang without stripes.

Another Classic

This beauty is also from my visit to the local car collector. Thank you Jay and Angie Sullivan. I have to admit, this car was perfect. There was no rust or "bad" spots. However, as I was painting it, my burnt umber underpainting started peaking through. I thought it helped to age this car. What is it?
