8x6" oil on hardboard
I've never owned a pickup truck. My brother had an old forrest green Toyota Hilux when we were in high school. He bought it for carrying around his dirt bike. The front seat had a huge hole in it so it was a true "bucket seat". He was about 6'4" at the time but he could barely see over the dashboard.
I remember sitting in that old truck one winter afternoon waiting for him to finish a race. I was about seventeen. Youth, boredom and the creative spirit inspired me to completely cover his interior with duct tape. It looked like a spaceship when I was done. I thought it was a great improvement and I was sure he'd love the new look.
He did not.
I'm a year older than he is so there wasn't any ass whoopin' in case you thought that's where this was heading.

I really like the way you simplify the scenes and let a few values, colors, and brushstrokes tell the tale. Plus, great story about the duct tape...
Great storytelling..plus painting is not so bad either!
