Creation and Evolution
Enjoy my new video “The Creation and Evolution of MOMENTUM” featuring my Corvette diptych paintings from concept through completion, created especially for inclusion in the Luster Exhibition at the National Corvette Museum, 2024.
MOMENTUM is two paintings, CREATION (the ’53 Corvette) and EVOLUTION (the 2023 Z06). Follow both artworks from their initial photoshoot at a beautiful Las Vegas private golf course with two amazing cars and countless hours in the studio painting this four foot by ten foot diptych. This video gives you a little peek behind the curtain, so you may even pick up on a few of my studio tricks and my love for coffee (and the occasional craft beer :-).
