A Painting - The Threadgood Home, "Before and After"

Senoia, Georgia.   

As an artist, I am always looking at things differently than most. I have painted several nostalgic businesses around the country.  This painting originated from the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes".  The home is in Senoia, Georgia. In the movie, it was referred to as the Threadgood home.

Check out the link below to read about it.

 I have been asked on occasion how I was able to create my paintings. This series shows the actual place and the final painting to show  the comparison.  Most of the 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.

What you cannot see in your "real" photo is the train tracks across the street! They were in the movie too!

Sometimes the painting is better than the real thing and this illustrates it.

That is an excellent recreation. Your painting has so much more warmth and appeal than the winter photo version.

That's a great rendition of the "green tomato" home, and you're very talented!  I bet you could sell a lot of those homes.
