TR on Yorkville


TR on Yorkville
18x24
Ink & Watercolour on Yupo

My second painting from the Exotics in Yorkville car show back in July. A great event with the Ferrari and Porsche clubs. And a great turnout! Hope it returns next year.
Altered quite a bit... got rid of those ugly barriers and safety cones; changed the 360 spider from red to yellow and a myriad of other details.

Mondial Detail


Mondial Detail
Vector Computer Graphic
Adobe Illustrator on Macintosh
A rendering of the air intake on the Mondial. The 4-seater Ferrari of the late 70s and 80s. It went thru a change of size and shape over the years but is a symbol of the peppy "family Ferrari".

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.
