That Caddy sketch? It's special to me. It's not just a drawing; it's a memory. I took the original photo at the Ventura Nationals in 2023. I remember the way the sunlight hit that body, the way those tail fins stood out against the backdrop of palm trees and the old hangars. I knew I had to capture that moment.
In my 5x7 graphite pencil sketch, I tried to recreate that feeling. The Cadillac is center stage, just like it was at the Nationals. It's more than just a car; it's a piece of automotive history, a symbol of a bygone era. And for me, it's a reminder of a great day at the Ventura Nationals.
