1985 Buick Regal Grand National
Mersh's car — a black 1985 Buick Regal Grand National — parked nose-out in front of a low building, with a figure in an orange hooded top standing beside it, hands on hips. A clump of palmetto breaks the foreground at the lower right.
The car takes the left two thirds in three-quarter view and the standing figure answers it at the right, with the building's dark fascia running the full width behind the two of them to lock the band together. Everything sits on one shallow stage with no sky.
Black and petrol blue through the car against a pale sand ground and a yellowed sky, with one orange note in the figure's top.
Quick ink line with the body of the car built from broad black strokes and the chrome left as reserved paper. The washes are thin and allowed to run, and the ground is barely touched.
Watercolour and ink in a sketchbook.
No signature visible.
