New! Canvas Prints
One of the biggest challenges with shipping framed art isn’t actually keeping it safe. I conquered that challenge a while back with the investing in the Art Safe shipper. No, the biggest problem has always been the cost of shipping. Both of the most common carriers—Federal Express and United Parcel Service—have restrictions on the dimensional weight of shipments and impose some hefty oversize fees once those limits are exceeded. In practical terms, this has meant…
Avanti—A Love Letter From Raymond Loewy
At the start of the 60s, having failed to introduce competitive models over several years, the venerable Studebaker Company was in deep financial trouble. In a last gasp effort to elevate the brand, the engaged Raymond Loewy and a group of talented designers to come up with a design that would resurrect the company’s flagging fortunes and be competitive with the cars coming out of Detroit. The design group holed up in a rented house…

Only two weeks to go before the 2022 Greenwich Concours—June 3-5 and I’m getting close to being ready to go. The booth elevation is done, art has been curated, and the literature is all on hand. Next up is to drag all of the gear out of the loft and go through everything before the final pack up. After missing Amelia Island this year due to some pesky medical stuff, I’m really excited to be…
Amelia Concours 2022
“Well my bags are packed, I’m ready to go…” Headed out to the Amelia Concours happening March 3rd through the 6th at the Ritz-Carlton hotel and Amelia Island Golf Club. I took a year off last year and am really stoked to be going back and bringing with me a couple of new art collections. I’ll be hauling all of the event gear out of the loft over the next few weeks, checking it over,…
Competition Colors Cunningham Jaguar Lightweight Prints
I’ve always admired the Jaguar Lightweights—both the roadster and coupe versions—but have a particular fascination with Briggs Cunningham’s efforts at the 1963 24-Hours of Le Mans. There’s just something fundamentally beastly about those cars. While they didn’t meet with much success at LeMans they helped Jaguar develop their E-type into one of the most successful sports cars of all time. Competition Colors started out as an experiment with monochromatic backgrounds and I liked the look so…
70th Anniversary Edition Austin-Healey 100 Prints
Perhaps the most legendary of the Austin-Healeys, the 100 was the quintessential British sports cars of the mid-50s. The beautifully sculpted lines by Gerry Coker with power from the 90bhp four cylinder engine were the perfect combination of looks and performance. Even though the early cars gave way to six cylinder power, the original four cylinder cars remain hugely popular and are considered by some to be the only true big Healey. Prints—Austin-Healey 100 70th…
MGB 60th Anniversary Prints
From 1962 until 1980 the MGB dominated British sports car sales in the U.S. Introduced to replace the MGA, the MGB was an immediate success offering such niceties as roll up windows front disc brakes, and functional weather equipment. Built on a semi-monocoque frame, The B was as sturdy as it was fun to drive and easy to maintain and remained wildly popular until British Leyland ceased producing the car in 1980. MGB 60th Anniversary…

Group 44 Spitfire Prints
Now available, my freshly completed illustration of John Kelly’s 1973 “F” Production National Championship winning Triumph Spitfire 1500. I was fortunate enough, through the car’s current owner, to be able to confirm a few important details which included the style of exhaust‚side exit or out the back—as well as the style of John Kelly’s signature on the door. I was also blessed, once again, with the more than capable help of Steve Knoll who has…
