3/20/20 Wedgwood neighborhood |
Driving around the Wedgwood neighborhood, determined to find
a sketch, I was first attracted to the spindly tree. Then the car caught my
eye. I don’t usually include many details of cars that happen to be in my windshield
view, but I vaguely recognized the car from the boxy ‘80s era. Frankly, I think
it (and most of that era) is ugly, but I’m also fondly nostalgic about that
time, maybe because it’s when I got my first “real” job and bought my first new
car (a 1983 Mazda GLC). I couldn’t find identifying marks on the car, but after
posting the sketch on social media, a Facebook friend identified it as a 1988
Toyota MR2.
It was a heartbreakingly beautiful day.
Blue skies and an old car...sounds like a song. Nice sketch of the car in it's surroundings.
