Motorsport art by
Michael Turner

Best known for poster artwork for the Watkins Glen Grand Prix & Can-Am, Turner is probably the one motorsport artist most fans would recognize the works of. Classic paintings of class races, a snapshot in time, only better. With added drama of the tracks and their scenery, recalling a bygone era of simpler things, or the techno-perfection of the modern tracks and machinery. Turner is also known for his publication of Chistmas cards every year, based on his paintings from the just-finished Grand Prix season. They are a bit pricey, but every enthusiast I ever sent one to, appreciated the art and probably saved it. They also make very inexpensive, frameable art. A very good selection of art and cards at Motorsport Collector.
