Dallas-based painter Francisco Moreno's most recent piece, WCD (Washington Crossing the Delaware), was a re-interpretation of the famous Emanuel Gottlieb Leutze painting of George Washington. Moreno abstracted the image using a technique known as "dazzle camouflage." He then painted a 1975 Datsun Z in corresponding shapes and had his auto mechanic brother install a motor and drive it in circles as part of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra's Soluna Festival. Moreno, winner of the Dallas Museum of Art's Anne Kimbrough Artist Award, described the project as a "camouflage interpretation of a symbolic American story executed by a German painter to inspire European revolutionaries that includes a Japanese car ... swapped with an American engine that was completely rebuilt by three Mexicans."
