This piece was originally earmarked for a close up painting of a gooseberry. Unfortunately I ate the subject. That wouldn’t have been so bad but it was the last gooseberry of the season and then the drought of 2016/2017 in the Western Cape wiped out the next crop. That’s why there’s a white oval in the centre of the panel!
The canvas was later pulled out to become a two door 1950 Chevrolet de Luxe.
This is an oil painting on a canvas panel measuring 148 mm x 210 mm (6 in x 8 in) and is one of series including Just an Old Ford, 1937 Chev Coupe, 1933 Ford Sedan Delivery, 1936 Cord Westchester, 1947/48 Pontiac Silver Streak and Grandpa’s Chev.
