A Painting - Toy Ferris Wheel, "Before and After".
As an artist, I am always looking at things differently than most. This painting was one of my favorites. The tin ferris wheel was in a soda shop in South Bend, IN. The owner had rooms full of antique toys. I changed the illustrations to clowns, so not to infringe on the copyright, from Disney's Mickey and Minnie Mouse and other characters that were on the toy.

I have been asked on occasion, how I was able to create my paintings. In this series, I show one of the photographs I used, of an actual place and the final painting, which shows my transition and interpretation between the two.. Many of my paintings were made from, as many as 12 photographs, taken from different angles, as well as closeup shots. These are the before and after shots.
