History of a Painting - Pedal Cars (Set of 4).

 

As I continued painting it added new pictures to make up my sets of four. There were painting I did, that were done specifically to make a set.  The actual paintings were only 4 x 6 inches on canvas board.  The pedal car set was one of those that I created, just to hang in a children's room.

While at the Art Festivals, the customers were able to choose the mat color, frame color and the direction of the frame, in which I had 7 x 18  and 5 x 25 Oak frames. The pedal car set came complete with hangers and glass, ready to hang, for $38. in the late 1900's early 2000's.

Some of the other sets include: Hot Air Balloons, Bumper Cars, Fishing Lures, Ducks, Outhouses, Lighthouses, Catamaran Sale Boats, Covered Bridges, Grist Mills, Fireman related, Barber, Theatres and of course all the local places of the individual towns and cities I visited.

Larry Johnston I led a deprived childhood never having a pedal car, but many of my playmates did and they were loads of fun. These painting did bring back fond memories.

In the last few years I have bought pedal cars for my young grandchildren only to find out that they have evolved.  They always prefer the battery operated and in some cases gas powered cars instead.

Those are great pictures for a child's room. I love stopping by and checking out pictures of your paintings. Tomorrow I'll check out the fire house. I bet I'm going to really like that one, too.

Larry, 

Another wonder set of 4 paintings of pedal cars. Your price is very reasonable and I would guess your work is in high demand.
