Julie Miller's Car, New Contemporary Painting by Sheri Jones


Julie Miller's Car
8x10 oil on canvas
Sold

This was a commissioned painting and was a birthday gift for Julie Miller.
She visited her sister in South Dakota running the streets in a little red VW. A baby boy was born during this time. He is the one that later named the car the "Julie Miller car"   It was a memorable visit for this sweet family and this painting takes them back to that time.
Commissioned paintings accepted.
Thank you for viewing my art.
