OLD PHOTOGRAPHS

Belinda Del Pesco wrote in her blog about her collection of old photos she keeps and uses as subjects for her wonderful watercolor paintings. Watercolor still escapes me but, I too, have used photographs my wife and I have taken as subjects in some of my acrylic paintings. The piece to the left is one of Belinda's newer works. Below is one I did of Teri (my wife) at a car show here in Big Bear, and another of a biker cafe in the small town where Teri's mother lived in central California.

Your painting of the biker cafe looks like the ones I've seen in TV shows and movies. You did a good job.
