Just Fell Off the Turnip Truck

I depicted Fell Off the Turnip Truck from a top-down perspective. This vantage point makes fantastic, long shadows and lets the viewer see a different view of the subject matter than you might normally see. From this angle, the grill, cab, and bed of the truck are all in full view. The background with turnip reflections is abstract in quality. It’s a loose feel, with subtle colors showing through the scrapes and drips of paint. The misty reflections add visual interest to the painting and makes you intensely aware that there are objects on the ground.
