Classic Formula Ford

Hawke DL19 Formula Ford

This painting is done from a photo originally taken in 1978 at the Townsend Thoresen FF1600, this is equivalent to the UK series now, round at Snetterton. In this piece you can see Robert Coates’ Hawke DL19 Formula Ford however sitting in the car is Michael Barrett.

For this piece I used watercolour and gouache to create the finished product.

Thundering Thorpe

Paul Thorpe at Murray's

This watercolour painting was done from a picture originally then by Michael Barrett. It was taken at the 2012 charity day at Snetterton. In this piece you can see Paul Thorpe driving his Ford Fiesta XR2i, which competes in the 750 Motor Club Classic Stock Hatch Championship, through the final corner of the Snetteron Circuit. He is giving a ride to Joshua Barrett in this picture although you can't make him out.
