Sunbonnet Drive
One day this week, I noticed a classic car (and a convertible!)
in front of us as we drove thru our neighborhood. I grabbed my cell phone and snapped a few
quick shots. One of them worked up well
as a watercolor painting. I thought the
softness of a watercolor captured the overall feeling of these two sunbonnet
clad folks coming back from their morning drive. I decided to make this image the focus for
this week’s Foto Art Friday. I imagined
these two as they perhaps meandered some country roads and the songs they may
have sung along with the car radio. I
also thought about postcards that could have been sent to friends in other
places sharing the enjoyment of their ride.
So, I incorporated some sheet music and postcards into the piece. I merged all of those with some fun
background paper, added my image and finished it all off with some specialty
brushes. I decided to call this piece
Sunbonnet Drive because it’s the sunbonnets that sort of “make” the image!
Sunbonnet Drive
Enjoy!
