Sebastian has been busily exploring Pennsylvania in his CJ-3B. Last Sunday morning he had breakfast with his wife and a friend in a park. I was reminded of George Seurat’s famous painting, Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. Inspired, I attempted to create a version of that using Sebastian’s photo, but I believe it was a failure as you can see below. You can view the real version of this photo and more at his website.
He writes, “We did a breakfast picnic in a park last sunday with my wife Ana and a friend. During the picnic I realized that this was getting very close to a part of your book when you had breakfast in a park with “Virginia”, and you were even wearing an orange shirt!, haha, I hope that is were the similarities end. Anyway, it was a great day, and beautiful to take the willys out for this.”
Dave, I like your version of the picture. It gives also a feeling of vintage!. Glad you liked it. It could be just me, but I strongly believe yellow is a great color for a willys. Just look the way it shines during the summer, haha. Thanks!
