Back to my Easel

As promised, I finally returned to my painting of the old truck.  Inspiration for the background, finally "popped" into my wee brain!  We were on our way to see the burros in Oatmen, when I spied a fabulous rock formation.  Hubby pulled over so I could get out and take some photos.  So glad I did, because I think they are just perfect as a back drop to the truck.

The rich dark tones of the rocks will make that old truck "pop"  and I'm pretty happy with the composition at this point.  I also like how the colors of the truck are repeated in the rock formations. So far....it all works!
