I don't remember sea monsters being mentioned in the travel brochure.<br />

The first version of this piece had the Squire running away from a volcano. As it happens sometimes, it just wasn't coming together very well, and I scrapped it. Starting over, I swapped out the volcano for a trio of tentacles, and changed the paper as well.<br />

Yes, I know. It's not so much a globe as a bell jar. "War Bell Jar" just doesn't sound cool. Besides, it's a prototype, to test the concept of Warglobes. Branding accuracy comes at a later stage, after the bugs are shaken out of the design.<br />

The top picture is the original painting. The bottom piece is a gently tweaked version I made in photoshop, just for something to do on a lazy Sunday.<br />

I think I've drawn or painted the 1957 Dodge pickup more than any other car or truck. There's a bone stock orange one at the beach, a Power Wagon gasser, a Power Wagon lowrider, and three Sweptside Surf Weirdos. I don't get tired of painting them. Maybe I'll do a Sweptside power Wagon next.<br />
<br />
Yes, the red on the cab and the bed side is supposed to be mismatched. I prefer vehicles that show a little age, look like they've been driven and not stored in a climate controlled, carpeted garage. It gives them a character you can't fake or buy in a can.<br />

What with all those walking monkeys surfing their cars and trucks, it's inevitable that, occasionally, one will wipeout and their ride will wind up at the bottom of the sea. At that point, it's finders keepers.<br />

Sometimes, it's best not to ask where ideas come from. Just paint them and make room in your brain for more of them.<br />

It's a little different this time. Instead of being content to scuttle across the desert, they've started stealing cars and trucks. Reports of stolen vehicles and reckless cacti are coming in from all over. They seem to prefer convertibles, though at least one school bus has been reported stolen, and there are rumors that a Zamboni machine was taken, though this has not been confirmed.<br />

One of my New Year's resolutions was to clean up the studio a bit, beat back the accumulated bedlam. Part of the chaos is a small pile of watercolor paper scraps, leftovers from prepping larger paintings. So, in an attempt to shrink the pile, I've been doing some small studies, mostly alternate versions of cars that show up in larger paintings. No mermaids, tentacles, or improbable situations, just a pure vehicular experience.<br />

A couple pieces inspired by an earlier piece, <a href="http://mattvyost.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-bride-of-fishenstein.html">The Bride Of Fishenstein</a>. I see the head of Fishy and I think that it'd make a cool balloon. Then of course, it occurs to me he's going to need some company. Maybe I'll add a Dracula to the pile someday.<br />
<br />
Both pieces are 9x14 inches, painted in watercolor. Available at <a href="http://www.dailypaintworks.com/Artists/matt-yost-2269">Daily Paintworks</a>.<br />

Sometimes, you look back on an idea and ask yourself, "Where the hell did THAT come from?"<br />

What's the story here. Is this an innocent repair operation, or sinister sabotage? Or is it just a painting of a hitchhiker who's been to the hardware store? I just don't know. Nice car though.<br />
<br />
This is the third time I have painted this particular wagon, although this is the first time I've painted it airborne. It's sort of evolved into this strange, pseudo-allegorical "good vs. evil" with a light peppering of "Don't jump to conclusions." Can't wait to see the fourth one.<br />

They're so adorable when they're little. Once they grow up...<br />

I don't think Mrs. Woodhouse is going to be much help here. <br />

I believe an artist should have at least one giant eyeball painting in their portfolio. It rounds out one's body of work in a way that a still life can't match.<br />

This is my 101st blog post. My, how the time flies. It only seems like yesterday since <a href="http://mattvyost.blogspot.com/2011/05/blog-post-number-one.html">Blog Post Number One</a> exploded onto the scene like an armored car through a pyramid of soup cans. I have to find some confetti and an alcoholic beverage to celebrate. <br />
