Rail Crossing in the Rain

Click to Bid, 15 by 18 inches, Acrylic on acid free illustration board

My fascination with railroad images continues with my latest piece. I wanted the look of  a rainy day and  had considered actually painting falling raindrops. After looking at the painting for a while I thought that the image already suggests falling rain. I then decided that it was unnecessary to actually paint the raindrops.

Railroad Crossing (Saturday Morning)

I've always been interested in graffiti. I grew up near a train track and we saw plenty of graffiti.
The spray cans used in graffiti painting are similar to airbrush painting. (Except on a larger scale.) Recently I was lucky enough to photograph some graffiti painted train cars in my hometown.  Those photos were used as reference in the painting process.
