Default Vette Art

Hey guys,
My wife gave me a painting of my Vette for Christmas. Just got around to getting it framed and thought I'd show it off. It's a 20x30 on illustration board. This artist is QUITE talented! What do ya think?
(Bear with me, posting pics is new to me. If it doesn't work on the first take, I'll try again.)

Thanks, Im going to hang it in the basement with my Illini stuff.By the way he's just getting back into painting so would be interested in taking on other projects. You can check out other cars he's done in the past on his website at www.bruceanliker.com. Click on "automotive fine art" when you get to the home page.

Hi guys--I'm Bruce and thanks for the kind words about my art! As Mark said, for a variety of BAD reasons/excuses, I've been away from my automotive art for several years. Mark's painting was my first one back... It's good to get back to painting. Currently I'm working on a painting of a Packard pheaton.

As Mark has said, if you're interested in a painting of your Vette, just email me at bruceanliker@yahoo.com and we can talk. And visit my website at www.bruceanliker.com and click on Automotive Fine Art to see other examples of my art. FWIW, my art has been published in Miata Magazine, Old Cars Weekly, and Road & Track.

Sorry if this is too "commercial" of a post! Now back to your Vette talk!
