| The Spotter |
| This scene depicts a century farm with the owner's collection of spent automobiles and farm implements. What a great find this would be to an avid "tin hunter". Many years ago, in my early days of restoring antique cars, my friend Alf Vandam, who owned a Cessna 150 aircraft, would take me flying across southern Alberta and Saskatchewan on tin hunting expeditions. It was a great advantage in finding those out of the way car collections which were just out of sight from the normally travelled roads. I used a Tiger Moth biplane in this image to depict the advantage of "the spotter" and to add some nostalgic appeal to the painting. If you look real close, you will see that the right side of the painting exactly matches the left so that you could slice your copy at any spot vertically and match the opposite ends to create a new custom image This image is also available as wallpaper border and is sold through this site, and retail wallpaper stores, world wide. Information is posted under wallpaper borders. The highly detailed 20" X 54" original painting which involved hundreds of hours of research and 340 hours of easel time, is available for sale; see below . |
