Description
045 37 In Black Formal is one the largest paintings in the Colorfield Car Art Series. At 30� x 40� it is a visually strong composition. This 1937 Chrysler Imperial C-15 Custom Limousine may be the only one of this model year fully restored and in regular use. The reference photographs were taken by the artist at the Annual Soddy-Daisy TN Festival held every year on the Fourth of July. Flags surrounded this unique automobile reflected in the original black paint. As painted from the back, the sweet curves create abstract red, white, and blue patterns over the trunk and taillight. There are three other paintings planned of this car. Legend has it the private owner lent the car and his chauffeur to FDR on a visit to Nashville. The President�s limo had not arrived by train due to a washout of the tracks over the mountains.
This painting was started in the classroom, where advice was sought for the composition and blending. 37 In Black Formal was completed in the Camp Sawdust Studios over the period of several months. It presently is in the private collection of the artist, and for sale.
