Senna Painting

[Supernova]

Hello All,

I have just come across this site and am thoroughly enjoying reading the posts. I do a little aviation art on the side but have done one or two motor racing pieces. Thought I would put a link to one painting I did about 5 years ago or so. The original is small 7 inches x 5 inches. Here is the link:

I look forward to see other people's work!

Very nice, certainly captures the action.

I'm afraid I have to stick with a camera ..... I can summarise my artistic ability as 0% - in fact people can't even read my hand righting.

How long does an item like that take?

Thanks for the compliment. That particular painting did not take long at all as it is so small, however larger pieces take anywhere from 2 weeks to a month depending on complexity. Most of my paintings depict aviation subjects but I will have to do more motor racing.

I grew up in Zimbabwe (Rhodesia back then) and used to see some of the South African F1 guys like Ian Scheckter, Dave Charlton, Guy Tumner, John Love (from Bulayawo) and have always wanted to do some paintings depicting those guys - we will see.

Mike.
