IN CELEBRATION OF NATURE















"Retired Harvestor" 8" x 10" oil/c

Here's something different for you. Behind
the John Deere showroom in Hillsboro, TX
is a graveyard of sorts for old harvestors
like this one. I've never painted one of these
puppies before but it looked interesting
so I gave it a go.

I am a big fan of the Transformer movies
and, in fact, I have an Optimus Prime
transformer that stands about two feet tall
sitting on my desk. The whole time I was
painting the harvestor I kept expecting it to
stand up, transform and walk away. Kind
of spooky.
