Click here to go to the www.amyglasscock.com homepage. July 1, 2022. Behold the Big Boy Train! This massive train was built in 1941 and weighs 1.2 million pounds and is a 133 foot steam engine. Union Pacific still has it running and it does tours. I was able to see it go by when it came to Texas. It was a lot of fun to see just how big it really is and to hear it chugging down the track with massive amounts of steam coming out. It was a fun challenge to paint and a good memory of that time I took a day to chase a train. Click here to see this painting in progress. |

"A painting lives by
companionship, expanding and quickening in the eyes
of the sensitive observer. It dies by the same token. It is
therefore a
risky & unfeeling act to send it out into the world."
-Tiger's Eye Magazine 1947.
