PHL - Weeds

















"Pacific Harbor Line - Weeds"    SOLD
oil on panel, 2011
6" x 8" (15.24cm x 20.32cm)


Pacific Harbor Line Series:
The Pacific Harbor Line, the workhorse of the LA Harbor. These black/white one's are part of the low emission line of locomotives for the move towards a greener port. Black and Shiny as tar with striking graphics, they don’t blend in, they stand out. Not graceful looking, they look like they mean business. The back end diagonals point down, the front point up to distinguish front from rear when seen head on. Its side panel graphics angling forward. So a nod of beautiful work to the designers of these burly beasts of burden.

This locomotive is pulling a string of empty intermodal rail cars.171

Update

There has been some work being done here at home the last few weeks, ceilings and flooring, so I haven't been able to get in the studio much or post anything to my blog. A lot of moving everything back and forth from room to room. And it will take some time to put it all back together.
We are nearing the end so I will start posting again soon.
I am really anxious to get back into painting again.
Stay tuned.
