I photographed this car during the 1997 Vintage Festival at Lime Rock Park. When my eyes came upon the car I knew immediately that I had to paint it. It was actually in full repose in a paddock next to the owner’s trailer. Using B&W film really allowed me to...
Older racing Porsches from the ’50s-’70s are one of my favorite cars to paint. This painting shows the great Jean...
The year was 1970 and these were the Targa Florio/Nürburgring 908/3’s. These cars were very squat and square, except for their rounded nose. The driver’s feet were in front of the wheels, with nothing but a fiberglass skin protecting them. The powerplant was rated at only 350 hp, but with...

When Porsche decided to wage a complete assault on overall victory at Le Mans in 1970, they entered the French classic with three awesome racers. Sold to the John Wyer-Gulf Team and painted light blue with orange roofs, these were the ultimate weapons of the day. Unfortunately, all three Gulf...

This large painting study was inspired by my first visit to Lime Rock Park 17 years ago. I couldn’t believe the amount of vintage racecars all in one place. As I walked around the race pits, the smell of gas and oil was overwhelming in a good way. When I...
