Full-size pic, it's a Model A, according to Google |
My year-long journey of learning to oil paint. The quest: 300 paintings in 2019. It will require near-daily attention. Progress, lack of progress, fun, not fun, rewarding, not rewarding....stumbling blocks, moments to toss it all, but also moments of great joy! But the learning part....the intention is to record it here.

Day 5 Model A Nose
Phew, 5 straight days, gonna take time off tomorrow, I can feel it. Today, I used a portion of a photo I took at a car show last fall....totally copied an idea seen in Carol's book, front portion of some sort of Model A...maybe a T. I thought, while about half way through, that it was terrible and was going to look like a paint-by-number painting, a total bust. But careful smudging with paper towels came to the rescue again. Yes, I broke some sort of cardinal oil-paint law and used black paint. I like black.
