Lutz,
I don't have a pic of my silver Scion xb...it looks like a toaster. I can stack 14 large canvases in it....twice as much as my Infiniti sedan's trunk, which I kept for 18 years cuz the trunk was so roomy.
So what artist am i? A practical one that gets my canvases out of the house !
My license plate number is ILUVHUE and I do!

That's cool Marlene. Do the back seats come out or fold down?

I used to like how I could take the back seats out of my old Toyota Rav4.

Subaru Forester? That is an easy one...you must be in hdr photographing, maybe with a touch of illustration style and lots of unvisible lightsources all over your art. Well, just a guess.

Ed,
I have no idea...it's new!! I've only folded down so far.
I rented a van for a show last year and the seats folded into the floor...now THAT was amazing but it was waaaay too big a vehicle for me.
Back in '89 I had a Mazda minivan and had them remove the middle seat at the dealership so I could stack and stand up my canvases....that was my favorite way.

Hybrid bicycel... Hmmm... No horse-power! I guess you paint a lot motifs to compensate... Horses?

 

Here's my old car when it was sideswiped the 2nd time out of 3 times.



Here's a generic pic of my current car (I don't have a pic of my actual car), hopefully it will avoid the sideswipes, knock on wood.

2002 I think, chevy silverado, pickup truck, has a dent by gas tank, the clear coat faded and the white paint in washing off, has rust stains on the roof and a cracked windshield from a pebble that hit it on the express way, but it has character and personality and I would not trade it for nothing.

'99 Ford Crown Victoria ex-police car. At least it wasn't a patrol car so it wasn't beat to death, the roof isn't full holes, it's metallic blue instead of white and I got it with less than 50k miles on it. So for a police car it lived a pampered life, unfortunately for it I'm the current owner and am now beating it to death.

Roomy cars are shouting out loudly that we deal with an artist who is in it for volume and quantity. I would guess it's just paint on each of them canvases.


Edit: Roomy cars as in Marlene cars.

Those Honda Elements seemed good for cargo. Seats came out, flat floor all the way in. But I guess they don't make them any more.

With my Rav4 once I got a pinball machine in the back with the seats taken out.

Forester was my next car. Served me well for many, many years. Great visibility. Recently I got a Mazda CX5. It was mint until last week when my learning to drive teen ripped the fender back coming out of the garage. Sigh. Wish I could have gotten a few more years out of that Forester. Bad timing.

White Toyota Rav4?

A virgine color! To focus on a single element is to meditate on one's own being, so I guess your art is about interpretation of the elements in a varity of colors.

 

Lutz Baar

A Farreri? That means you strive to overcome elegance and power by contrasting this in artwork focused on few colors an elements.

I looked at your art, Rowena, and there is no dought on what car you drive. Actually it is not quite a car, it is a Volkswagen Bus (van) ! Maybe flowerish hand-painted on some parts of the exterior.

An AUDI? Well you know what AUDI stands for, right?

All Unnecessary Devices Installed

However, I feel like this wurm for technology is just a cover-up for the inner glow of striving for a vintage life in every aspect. So I would aspect images of vintage character.

I bought a new Jeep Renegade last Saturday. Traded my Wrangler for something that is more quiet, has a better ride, and still has off-road capability.



The dealer made me an offer I couldn't refuse. They must have had someone looking for my model and color. I used it for 3 1/2 years and put 33,000 mile on it - and was offered 82% of the original sticker price for a trade - on the discounted price of the new Renny.

I'll be sharing exploits and pictures at My Second Cat dot com :)

Very nice Bill! I had an 87 Jeep Cherokee and loved it. I'm still a sucker for the boxy Jeeps/Cherokees, but the new ones will grow on me at some point though. Really can't go wrong with most of the Jeeps in terms of off-road ability, ease of getting parts, and being able to fix them on your own.

 

Bill Swartwout

Thanks, Luke. We are sort of a Jeep family. My wife loves her Compass - we've driven (from Maryland/Delaware) to Florida twice and to Myrtle Beach, SC and the "Bourbon Trail" in Kentucky. I've owned two other Wranglers over the years and our old mid-90s Cherokee is still in use by my Niece's daughter. My son has a great Rubicon that he frequently uses for rock crawling. I satisfied with tooling around on the Delaware and Maryland beaches (with my cameras). If Jeep offered a brand new Cherokee (XJ) with that original boxy shape - I would have bought that. Years ago we had that one off-road in Monument Valley, UT. Still love the style and capability.

@ Lutz - Guys, could you post smaller images in this thread, for faster loading? Thank you!

Oops, sorry about that. I just checked and, even though my Orange Jeep has been web optimized, it still has a "data weight" of 88 KB. I see most of the FAA small size images are only in the 65 - 80 KB range.

Luke, please tell me that's mulch and not dog food. On the other hand, if it is dog food, I want a picture of your dog.

2000 Ford Taurus Wagon. 24 valve DOHC ( Dual Over Head Cam ). Toreador Red Clearcoat Metallic.


( Cynthia, what you have is next for me )

 

Lutz Baar

8 Years Ago

Ford Taurus Wagon? And Toreador red? Those are hints that makes it easy to find the right answer.

Taurus (bull) and Toreador (bullfighter) are opponents, however linked to eachother. Like black and white. So I would aspect a lot of black and white art. However, the color red seems to be pointing at a more private philosophy area - might be a cardinal-red...

 

Luke Moore

Susan, That actually is mulch... haha. That would be a pretty good sale on dog food :) The first year we had out house we ended up getting bags of it. This last year we got a load of mulch delivered on the driveway... much easier.

Bill, my family has always been a bit of a Jeep family as well. I'm 36 and I've had 3 Jeeps already through out my driving span. Jeeps seem to get in your blood and it's hard to get them out. The 1987 Cherokee for 7 years, a 1999 Jeep Wrangler for 2, and my 1994 Wrangler for 10 year. I would love to get a Willys pick up or a CJ-2a at some point.

My parents had a 1978 Wagoneer (dark green with the wood paneling), 1988 Wrangler, 2 1994 Grand Cherokees, a 2001 Jeep Wrangler, 2005 Grand Cherokee, 1997 Wrangler (my dad build up similar to mine for Jeep trail use)... I think those are all of them.

I'm sure your son loves that Rubicon :) The Rubicon models are a good base to use as is or modify for the rock crawling and whatnot.

Spark plugs changed, one new spark plug wire and a vacuum line tightened and my baby runs like new.

I need new tires up front and I can't find Swamper IROK NDs anymore. Guess she's gonna run on Swamper LTBs now.

Yeah, had to adjust one of my compositions to accommodate the cottonmouth yesterday. Don't get that a lot in the dunes. (A lot being the key word as it has happened to me.)

 

Lutz Baar

8 Years Ago

How could I tell you, JC? The first pic showed a quarter of a car, and this one even less! And I guess "my baby" and "the getaway" are not really car brands nor models.

So what artist are you, based on what I have seen of your car? Must be something with struggle, adventure and finding a non-commen angle of the motif.

I guess you would never depict an apple lying on a table indoors, no, rather an apple on top of an appletree in need of a birdseye view, standing in a place where the car has to be left a mile earlier , changing to canut which then could be used to climb the tree, since none of the lenses could reach the apple properly.

Or maybe you just hire a plane for the job...

 

JC Findley

8 Years Ago

Very good.

A quarter of the truck is all you need really.

Z71 on the side means it is either a Chevy or GMC 4x4. It is a pickup with kayaks usually in the back. You can't see it but there is climbing/repelling gear in the back. It is running on Super Swampers so that shows I prefer trails to roads.

And the location of both shots fills in the rest.
