Bavarian Classic
prints available This was a fun painting to do! With my friend Susan Spears’ “Inside Line Drawing" class, I visited the Portland, Oregon Motorcycle Company. This classic vintage BMW bike was in the lobby and I just had to sketch it! Later, I did this full-sheet painting based on the sketch. The bike was black and white, but I thought that would be boring to paint. So, I had fun adding lots of color and this is how it turned out. The original painting is now part of the permanent art collection at Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland. |
A major motorcycle event in the US is the annual Chief Joseph BMW Motorcycle Rally in John Day, Oregon. This rally is in honor of Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Tribe. For many years I created the design for the rally T-shirts. For this, Jean and I received free T - shirts. Now we have lots of T - shirts!
