I took a photo of this car last Summer when I was at the Swisher Car Show in Iowa. I really fell in love with this beautiful 1955 white/yellow Nomad. I could easily see myself cruising down a two lane highway in it. The "station wagons" have always had a special place in my heart. No surprise there when you consider I've had three different station wagons and they always have room in the back to stow a bicycle which is my first love. lol

I think it's ironic that just as I am finishing up painting this beauty, I end up seeing the same car at the Houby Days Car Show. It's a small world sometimes. lol I gave the gentleman a business card and asked him to check out this site within the week. But I got so enthused after seeing the car again that I went home that evening and finished the painting. Here's some photos of the painting in process...
