A couple years ago we went to New Mexico for a little vacation and I took some pictures of all sorts of things that inspired me. I did paint plein air one time up in the Sandia Mountains near Santa Fe, but it was difficult for me knowing that people were waiting on me, even though they were so very nice about it.
While I was looking through my computer pics, I found this iconic truck that we saw near Taos. It’s been a while since I painted a truck and I thought this might be a great time to do it.
I love the aqua color of this truck, and how the color is echoed by the other truck in the background.
When I used to be on IG I made friends with an artist who lives near Taos and we talked about painting this truck.
CheyAnne, New Mexico Mountain Girl , if you see this, I’m challenging you to paint with me. 🙂
Here is my block in…
I’m letting it dry for a bit, and then I’m going to paint some of those beautiful colors.
Hope you all are having a wonderful day! 🙂
