Illustration Friday - Dusty


My husband recently purchased his dream car - a 1970 full-sized jeep truck (he asked that I say "full-sized"). He takes it out on the dirt roads in the country to get firewood for our fire-pit in the backyard. He creates quite a dust storm : )

  5. The artwork is lovely, and the scene is utterly charming! Makes me feel nostalgic for my grandmother's old farm.

  11. My husband approves of your husband's dream car - he's a Jeep guy. And... he wants to know if it's a J10?

    Wonderful, as always, Kristin.
