Description
This watercolor painting of an RV camper van was commissioned by RoadTrek Inc. in Cambridge, Ontario Canada who build and custom outfit RV camper vans. It is a retirement gift for a valued employee. They sent me a few photos of their RoadTrek camper vans and a photo of their retiring employee to use as reference, requesting that his face be in the side mirror and his name on the license plate. They also requested that the van would be driving into the sunset.
The vehicle reference photos they sent had reflections of their parking lot and building. In order to create a realistic country scene, I painted colorful autumn trees along the roadside and had them reflect in the shiny van and windows. Rather than paint a black pavement, I painted reflections in a rain-soaked roadway of the sunset, trees and van. Then I painted some fallen and blowing colored leaves for detail, interest and movement. The entire scene is from my imagination, based on my experience, memories and observations of nature.
Thank you to all who voted my painting in these contests! I appreciate your generous response and support!

I really like this painting. Beautifully done, outstanding detail and color. And, to top it off, what I really wanted to do when hubby retired. Of course, not something he was into but I still have hope. :) f
