| 1. The Photo
The challenge here was to create a full colour oil painting from the
client's grainy black and white photo of her husband and his father

2. The Draft
Because the details of the car were somewhat blurry, I needed to source a detailed picture of an identical car to paint from. Luckily I had just been to a Holden motor show and had a photo of this FJ in exactly the same colour as the original! With a little more research into the clothing styles and colours of the day, the painting starts to take shape...
