This old Williamson County bus sits in a field in Leiper's Fork and I have always driven by and said I would paint it someday. Sunday was that day. Apparently it has become a storage shed.
When I look at it abandoned in this field I have to ask who would aquire a school bus and how did they aquire it to just drive it home and park it in a field to store junk in it? How do you get a school bus? Do they give them away or sell them? Ya' know, if you tore out the seats and added a bunk and a fridge and a giant easel, you would have a great mobile studio. Just back it up to your favorite local scene, fling open the back door and voila, instant studio, rain or shine.
Except for the gas costs, I think you're on to something. ;)
ReplyDeletegreat bus!
ReplyDeleteI want to paint it one day too. It is not going anywhere soon, that's for sure...
I was hoping to see you and your works at the Capitol Show. I was happy to sell two and hope the other two sell as well.
ReplyDeleteI rode the bike to Lieper's Saturday and saw some of your works at the gallery.
The bus looks good. Buy it and load it up with artists!
