Originally I was going to draw this in my usual style of coloured pencils, but I thought it would look good painted. I used Gouache paints on an acrylic canvas board. Hope you like it :)
I love this image and your cartoon figures. Like you Tahnee, I am female and am an avid car enthusiast. I was a big fan of Popeye and my son loves Gumby. I love too many cars to mention and when I was your age fantasized about becoming a race car driver. The artistry of cars is often underrated and well captured in your photograph.
Artist Reply: thank you for the amazing comment Julie..its good to meet another female with the same interest as me. I love cars so much i recently had an 'early drive day' where i drove an astra for 2 hours and it was great! thank you once again for taking the time to view my art :)
Hi thanks for all the comments....So I had to come by and see your work! I must say I'm blown away you do so many mediums and they are all wonderful...Excellent work!
Artist Reply: thank you Kendra..my mum got me into pastels recently and i used Gouache at school so thought it would be nice to continue at home..glad you like my work :)
