I took a free class then signed up for artist Ali Kay's workshop and continued with her Fresh Paint group. I like to paint in oil with chunky brush strokes showing and her style is very similar in acrylic but I wanted to learn layering. I had so much fun following along and then continued my journey with what inspires me. The Volkswagen van was her design and the other vehicles are ones that I have taken photos of at car shows or on the street. I don't know anything about cars but do like the sleek lines, colours and shadows on the chrome. Left: First attempt following along.
