"Could Had a V-8" Ford Fairlane watercolor by Diane Morgan

I love painting cars.  I was born in Detroit.  I'm sure I have some motor oil in my veins.  Like Alfred Hitchcock I always place a little cameo of myself in my car paintings in a reflection. Watercolor on Arches 300# cold press.

CFAI August challenge Best of Show

The theme for the "Hot August Nights" challenge was cars so of course I had to enter.  This watercolor "Hot as a Heartbeat" sure is getting a lot of mileage. The Best of Show prize bennies are great.  I won $100, a week of promotion on their social media sites, space in Visual Language magazine, as well as a spot in their 2013 promotional items.  I will also be featured in one of the "Colors on my Palette" interviews for October, which will be shown all month on the front page of www.CFAI.co as well as in Visual Language Magazine.  Nice start to the weekend!
