New Brumos GT3 Painting

After what seems like forever, my oil painting of the Brumos Porsche GT3 at Watkins Glen is complete! It took forever to finish this thing. I have to thank David Wilks for letting me use one of his photographs to paint from. Without it this painting would not exist.

Its another big one at 5x4ft. The same size as the 935 painting I did.

These are not the best photographs. I usually try to get them outdoors so I can get some natural light but its been so rainy and cloudy here it just wouldnt have worked. As soon as I get the chance, and the weather permits, i'll take some new pics.

I know i'm going to have some prints made but i'm trying to figure out what and how many etc. I was thinking that I will have a few very high quality 50x40in Giclee prints on canvas as well as some smaller giclees. I was also thinking about getting some inexpensive regular paper posters made so people could just throw them up in the garage or wherever and not worry.


I'll also post the link for the painting and prints "for sale" ad here when I complete them.

Hope you like it:

Wow that's beautiful!!

Just curious, how long is your 'forever' -- how long does it take you to complete a painting like this?

Thank you! I started it at the end of May thinking I would have it done by late June or early July! With the exception of a week and a half vacation in late june, I worked on it everyday...even if only for an hour or two some days. I had quite a few late nights on this one and sections I thought i'd breeze through quickly took some time.

Thanks Jon!

I'm getting it up to my printers this coming week. I think I have decided on a limited edition of 59 giclees which will be available in 2 or 3 sizes PLUS some everyday posters that will be inexpensive.

Thanks, Its at the printers this week. They said they should have color swatches/ tests ready for me in the next couple of days. That was yesterday, so possibly tomorrow? As soon as I give them the "ok" on color match etc. They will be available. So......hopefully by next week.
