I was under the impression that I had a buyer for this piece, but it hasn’t been paid for and they’re not responding to my messages. So, if I hear nothing before 8pm today, this will be back on the market.
Right, here is “Impressions #48”: “Abstract 1988 LM”. It celebrates Jaguar’s 1988 Le Mans victory - its first win at La Sarthe since 1957. To think that that gap is smaller than from its last victory to now! 🤯

This piece is A5 size and can be purchased for £75+p&p, via DM on here.

No artist owes you ANYTHING.

Buying art is a luxury. It's not something you can't live without.

You choose to buy it because you love it, it makes you feel something. Not because you need it.

As such, support to the artist is implied.

If any of the above is not for you, then don't buy art.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Just managed to get the Fiesta washed before the sun set... Looking good from a few feet back again and a couple of minor bits so it's ready for its service and MOT on Tuesday now.

Had a couple of hours free in Coventry this afternoon while the eldest did her Oxford entrance exam. I'd never been to the Coventry Transport Museum, so put that right. Definitely worth a visit, so much more than these 2, but LSR cars are the stars.

Visitor at work just now. Excuse the reflection, phone camera and window between us! Anyone able to confirm, is it a Sparrowhawk?

Lovely day down at Chafor Wine Estate thanks to Maeving, tasting their English wines and some axe throwing and archery. Also met the winery's dog, Rosie!

In 2022 BMW M turned 50 years old.

I created the BMW 3.0 CSL artwork to honour this milestone.

Truth is, I haven't looked back at this artwork in detail since.

Always full "far away" image.

And pretty often too, since I have a shirt with this artwork.

But I never again saw it in detail.

Wow 🔥
