Les citrouilles et le camion

Pumpkins have long since become a symbol of autumn. 
 In this painting of pumpkins and an old truck, we see a perfect pairing of times past. 
Pumpkins are among the oldest domesticated plants on Earth. 
Archaeological evidence suggests that pumpkins have been cultivated 
as far back as 10,000 B.C.  
This old truck may not be that old, but from the rust on its fenders,
 it has had countless adventures.  
Perhaps it has delivered a few pumpkin pies.

Old Friend

The painting of this 50's Chevy truck reminds us that
 memories of old friends are framed in many forms.  
Memories formed through countless adventures are 
revived upon remembering roads travelled.  This old friend, 
once shiny and blue, has become a rainbow of faded colours.  
Wearing proudly signs of age, he remains true to all he has seen 
and all who have called him a friend.
