I have a weakness for racing cars, something carried from boyhood, it gives me a warm feeling of nostalgia and escape. I in no way endorse or seek to promote the brands involved, it is the pure aesthetics of the cars and the heroics of the drivers that inspire me.
Just for fun I thought I would paint some Formula 1 cars, confident I could manage the scenery at least. The new palette of colours and challenges of rendering these definite forms proved both absorbing and profitable. Expect more soon.
