Red Barn, Texaco

Cartersville, Georgia

After I had painted the Texaco pump with the brown barn in the background, I called it brown Barn Texaco.  This painting was similar, but needed some more color to the painting, so I added the Red barn.  It was one of several different brands that I eventually painted.  Gas pumps became quite a collection subject, for people that made a habit of buying my work.

My prints were available to buy in a 5″ x 7″ and 11″ x 14″, including a mat around the print. I even made barn-wood frames for a while, then switched to a variety of frame colors: black, Burgundy, forest green and colonial blue. .Now I offer the prints on stretched canvas, to make it look like the original.

Restored Truck

  Cartersville, Georgia

In a previous painting, I highlighted the painting Brown Barn with Texaco Pump .  The painting was purchased by a young couple who asked if I could put their newly restored truck in the painting.  They ended up deciding they liked the painting as it was, but wanted me to paint something to compliment the painting and also include their truck. As you can see by the 2 paintings below, I used the same background as a continuation of the first painting.  They were delighted!
