“To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.”
– Anatole France
A Vintage Truck Sketch – 5″ x 7″ Work in Progress
I do some art nearly every morning before I get ready for work. It’s
like I need to do art and it always makes my day better when I start it
this way. Yesterday morning I drew this truck. This morning, I inked
it and started painting it. Tomorrow, I’ll paint the truck and maybe
the background. It’s red in the photo I drew it from, but I’m thinking
it may be a little fancier. We’ll see.
About Anatole France
Anatole France was the pen name of Nobel Prize–winning French author
Jacques Anatole François Thibault. He was born in 1844 in Paris. His
father was a book dealer, and France spent his life among books,
including 14 years as assistant librarian to the French Senate. His
novels, including the Contemporary History series and The Gods Are
Athirst, often use allegory and religious symbolism as vehicles for
moral questions. He died in 1924.
