Each year, the Oregon Federation of Square and Round Dance Clubs looks for some striking or appropriate image for the front of its annual directory. This year, Oregon watercolor artist and square dance caller Lane Clem painted an original piece of art for us, titled "46 Ford Woody Van". He has offered the original watercolor to the Federation, to be auctioned off, to benefit the Federation's Youth Education Scholarship fund.
This painting of a class 1946 Ford "Woody" station wagon is 21" x 14", painted on 140 lb French Arches cold-press watercolor paper, mounted on quarter-inch foam core, matted, framed, and ready to hang.
The auction bidding will be open through October 17.
