The Find

http://www.thefindpainting.net

This is my '63 VW Camper!

I painted this, shortly after I bought it, while I waited for a professional welder to restore some of the structure. It was a dream of mine and so I painted it in my dream situation... the perfect find... a rusty old VW waiting to be restored overlooking a secret surf spot waiting to be ridden.

Over the last 11 years I've been slowly restoring it. You can see it's current state at the end of the video.

The orginal painting is designer guache on stretched paper.

Sooo many times.... just in my head though... maybe I'll find it for real one day. If I do should I come back and tell you were it is?
