Timeless Fans


Timeless Fans
Photography

A shot taken at a recent Ontario DeLorean Owners Club meet. The time machine from Back to the Future draws smiles from children and adults alike. A true icon of pop culture.
This shot i felt embodies the magnetism that this vehicle - an amazing recreation of the Time Machine by a die hard fan - has on people.

Curves


"Curves"
Vector image
Adobe Illustrator on a Mac
A little experimenting with Adobe Illustrator again. Trying to use the minimalist approach and just pick the large basic forms with only the necessary details...
something a tad different from me... but i like experimenting with new ideas.

Open Doors DMC


New Work: Open Doors DMC
Photoshop
A work using a shot of a friend's DMC-12 DeLorean.
Variety of filters, primarily Posterization. And alot of touching up.
I wanted a square composition from the start. And something unusual that featured the doors. So cropped out most of the car, finding an angle that still showed the logo and had the doors up. Found one that fit the bill and lent itself well to the idea.
Enjoy!

White TR


New Work! Returned to Adobe Illustrator on my iMac and created a vector image of a detail of a white Ferrari Testarossa. A small section with the door seam through those iconic 80s cheese-grater strakes. I'd love to get a large canvas print of this.

Short Series of a 1969 Corvette L88

Finished up a short series of paintings for a client/owner of a 1969 Corvette L88. The first and only one of 3 imported to Canada. Two watercolours on Yupo and an oil on canvas.
"L88 Vette 1"
23.5 x17.5 inches
Watercolour and Ink
Decided to go larger than planned and highlite the badging in the composition. Went thru a bit of a metamorphisis at the planning stage and altered the background colouring along the way, but am really pleased with the outcome.

L88 Vette #2
Ink and Watercolour
16 x 12 inches
One of favourite shots from my photoshoot of the L88. Kept the same flavour and colouring as the larger sister-painting.

"L88 Vette Yellow on Yellow"
36 x 36 inches
Oil on Canvas
Again as with the Blue Cobra, the pallet knife was used alot, moreso this time with large brushes to get the myriad of yellow tones on the surface of the fibreglass... didnt want to niggle with details here... not the intent with my paintings like this... Big and Bold was the methodology here!
