Car Art Photography
I have lived in Houston, Texas since the mid 1960s. I love the automobile, especially those of the muscle car era. The thunder of the exhaust, the smell of burning rubber, and the need for speed offers that rush of adrenaline that routine daily life cannot offer.
The images portrayed in the art are not just about the automobiles, but the culture that has evolved around them, namely the human factor. Many of the images reflect the enthusiasm of the car cruises and shows, the restorations, the barn finds, the spirit of competition, and the joy that common everyday people find through their romance with the automobile.
Mission Statement
Route 66 symbolizes the renewed spirit of optimism that pervaded the country after economic catastrophe and global war. By 1970, nearly all the highway had been by passed by a new four lane highway. Much of the businesses that prospered along the once well traveled road have closed, decayed, and have been torn down over the decades. But some still remain and others have been lovingly restored by individuals or communities. One of my passions is to capture these yet lasting icons of years gone by before they disappear from the landscape. By combining the classic automobiles with the vintage backgrounds, I hope to reproduce a snapshot of that time in history for future generations, inspiring others to keep automotive history and passion alive and well for all to experience.
Thank you for stopping by!
