A Bit Rusty sold

I love bikes, and old ones are full of character. Wouldn't it be great if they could tell their stories? Found this one somewhere on the way to Yosemite at a roadside stop called Bravo Farms. That place is full of painting fodder and great tortilla soup too. I submitted it to the DPW "Wheels" challenge. See the others by clicking here.

    Great perspective! Love the circle of the front wheel and the smaller, oval of the back wheel. And those wooden crates are amazing. Love this! (Tortilla soup sounds great!)

    I like how you've allowed bits of the orange under toning to peek through here and there, Karen! I also like the Marlboro sign in the background. Wonderful work.

    fabulous! All of the shapes work so well together. By design of course.
