Day 9- Days Gone By


'Day's Gone By'
This is old photo from years past. I don't have a clue where 
I took it.  I have painted it a couple of times.  I just love the old grown
up building and gas pump. So far this is one of my favorites from 
the 30 day challenge!

When Gas was Cheap!

When Gas was Cheap!


I decided to dig this out, since gas is on its way back up again! When Ken was in the Navy gas was .30 per gallon.   and we had trouble filling up our car back then! For a couple of years all we had was a small motorcycle, and it sure didn't take much to fill it up!

I can't remember where I took the photo of this old abandoned station, but I love shots like this!
It just speaks to me! Days long gone...when life seemed a little simpler?  Not so busy anyway.
This painting sold at one of our art shows.

All Pumped Out

I thought I would put this painting on since gas prices are going up and up again!
I took this photo somewhere around Sweetwater, Texas, and just thought it to be a timely reminder of the days that go by so quickly! These are the sort of things i enjoy painting, things of yesterday and sentimental things.
"All Pumped Out" started out as transparent, and then I ended up using some acrylics with it. Much to my surprise, It won Best in Show in the Denver City (TX) art show this spring.

  The West Texas watercolor society always paints small works to sell.  This is a wonderful art get together. It is coming up in April.  thi...
