"RUMBLINGS"



I painted this 6"x8" to see how I feel about doing a 40" x20" canvas. Well I really enjoyed the outcome and I'm looking forward to the larger version that I'll post this week. I named it Rumbling because you can feel the ground tremble way before you see this coming. There is a real rush standing close to one of these baby's as it rumbles by. Oil on archival clay board mounted on a 2" deep finished wooden box, no framing needed can yours. (SOLD)

I think any of these trains would make a fabulous 40' x 20'
