Yellow Truck in watercolor

While we are at the stage when experiment is the key word, here is a Yellow Truck. I painted it very loosely, telling myself not to fiddle too much and just play around with color and texture.The paper was Two Rivers, a highly textured British paper that had bee lying around for months as I contemplated over what to do with it!
Well there was a reason I chose this truck; I need to get ready to my upcoming exhibition in Basingstoke late this month which has a theme 'Machines'. I usually shy away from machines, don't like them very much- but this time I couldn't get away.So here I am, trying to be creative by finding something to paint  that qualifies as a 'machine' but still fun to paint!
Any Ideas as welcome :)

Painting a bicycle can be a daunting task.I have always wanted to paint one and finally got around to do it.Though it does not look as I had imagined -the wheels look a bit wobbly- still, its a start!...The wall behind was my imagination,I don't know if it looks right or not.Its just that I needed an excuse to paint texture ; later I realized that it distracts from the main subject a little bit.Well...as I said, it was not easy but I liked it and might paint more.Someday I might get it right :)
