Willys Knight Land Yacht

1930 Model 66b Plaid Side Great Six

Although the Hendricks Auto Company letter, signed by Mr. J. A. Hendricks himself is dated the 8th of November, 1917, this beautiful high end automobile came out of the factory in 1929. This is the first piece of old paper that I've done since March, and the first art I've done since early June.

It's going to the folks who commissioned it very shortly. I'm back in the saddle.

  1. Wow! Glad you've come out on the "other" side :)
    That's quite the ride ... seems to have a somewhat jaunty attitude.
    Lovely!!!

    1. The original letter is a demand for payment for a purchase. I can only imagine that because the paper predates THIS automobile, that Joe's was bit more bereft of chrome.

  2. Penny here: Art, like crops, is nourished and renewed by fallow times.

  3. Art, like nature, is enriched by a fallow season. Welcome back to the table.

    1. Glad to be back, if even for a little longer than my last voyage.
