Road Racer

Ok I am cleaning out my garage and come across an old car calandar.
(what else would be in the garage…Oh but those calandars I cannot show ;-)
I hardly throw anything away!!
(You never know when you might need the item you were about to toss)
This calandar was from 1975…Perhaps because my oldest was born then…(call me sentimental)
This was the page the calandar was opened to….so I painted it…
acrylic on fabric
13×13

Road Racer belongs to the following groups:

Art Inspired by Dreams, Beach Art, Colour Me Vibrant Red!, Everyday Life, Live, Love, Dream, Scenery, Tropical Art and Vibrant and Vivid Color

Wonderful work on this!!! And your right…probably why I keep my photos even if they came out bad…they can always be turned into something down the road!
