Entry #1~Route 66 series

Study for a painting
This sad little building got stuck in my head. The above image I made from memory, which I have been practicing. (Below is my original photo.)

It wasn’t seeing a lot of action, but the altars across the way were still in frequent use.

This is such great Americana. I like the sketch. Where along the route was this? Oklahoma? New Mexico? Another area? It looks so desolate. I’d love to travel Route 66 one day!
Thank you Karin! It was lovely in that minimalist way. Every American artist should travel that road at some point, even Expats ;] it is such a romantic notion. This particular image was in New Mexico. I found it enchanting indeed!
