Default Baker painting

I know this doesn't fit in model engineering but I couldn't find where else it might go. This is a colored pencil drawing that I am working on. It's about 12x16. I took some reference pictures at Wauseon this year and this engine was in red and green colors but I like the Baker "blue" so I have used my artistic license to change it.

Here's an update to the Baker picture. I'm almost done with the engine and then I can start on the foreground and sky.

I think I have it this picture finished. Usually I don't look at it for about a week and then go back and have a fresh look and then I can see if something stands out that needs work. I hope everyone of you steam fans enjoys it.
Thanks,
gbritnell
