EDITORS COMMENTS
Indicating the Grade" is a captivating watercolour painting by the skilled artist Alan Anderson, showcasing a diesel-electric locomotive making its way up a steep mountain grade. The intricate details of the painting bring the scene to life, with the locomotive's powerful engine and billowing smoke contrasting against the lush greenery of the mountainside and the clear blue sky above. The title of the painting, "Indicating the Grade," refers to the important role that locomotive engineers play in managing the steepness of the terrain as they navigate their trains up and down mountains. The painting captures the sense of both the challenge and the thrill of this task, with the locomotive's cab filled with dials and gauges that indicate the grade percentage and other vital information. Anderson's use of watercolour adds a sense of depth and texture to the painting, with the rich colours of the foliage and the subtle shading of the locomotive creating a visually stunning image. The painting also captures the feeling of motion and energy, with the locomotive's powerful engine and the sense of forward momentum conveyed through the dynamic brushstrokes and the sense of perspective in the painting. Overall, "Indicating the Grade" is a beautiful and evocative work of art that captures the essence of the locomotive engineering experience. It is a testament to Alan Anderson's skill as a painter and his ability to bring a complex and intriguing subject to life through his art.
