Textured Tanker

I enjoyed the challenge of rendering the complexity

oil running over letters painted over rusted 
and peeling paint with shadows traversing all.
This has been accepted into the 2015 Western Spirit Show.

Pastel in progress

This is a pastel I am working on for an upcoming railroad

building up layers of texture on the
side of this tanker car.
