Early Ending

Lucy the Art Bus did her best to complete the trip but her old age has prevented that. With 30 engine problems reported by her on-board computer, she just couldn’t keep up.

Her help with this project was enormous and she was ideally suited as a mobile art studio, camper, and excursion vehicle. Without her, I am ending the trip in Santa Rosa, California and heading back home to my loving family.

I’ve learned a lot about traveling as an artist and what works for plein air watercolor painting. With the right equipment, I can keep this up.
