Watercolor Wednesday - CB & Q FOX
Author: rrartist

Here is an earlier piece of work depicting the station sign FOX with two Burlington Route trains. It was made for a BNSF Road Foreman (FOX) who started his career with the CBQ and who has a fondness for the SD9 locomotive. Put it all together and whoa-la, a painting is born.

Another gem! Showing this 'taped-up' shot is cool. It provides a little insight into your cropping & compositional process.

Great! Looks like your Road Foreman friend was fond of SD-9s, a sign of a wise man.

Oh, join the club. I love the BN SD9's and its sad to see that they're finally leaving the roster. Regarding your last phrase though, try "voilà" in the future. ;-)
