Brookes Over The Mountain

Josh Brookes flying over the Moutain at Cadwell Park
This picture I created using watercolours and a picture taken by Adam Lines at the eighth round of the British Superbike Championship. Last year Josh Brookes finished second in the championship behind Shane "Shakey" Bryrne.
At this particular round, Brookes finished sixth in the first race and second in the second race. He is racing again this year and is one of the main championship contenders. Brookes has been racing in British Superbikes since 2009 and has finished second in the championship on two occasions, 2010 and 2012.
The picture measures 12 inches by 8 inches.

Outstanding O'Neill

Paul O'Neill's sunshine.co.uk Honda Integra Type-R
This is a watercolour painting of Paul O'Neill's Honda Integra Type-R at the third round of the 2010 Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship, at Brands Hatch GP circuit. The picture I worked from was taken by Michael Barrett.
In this season O'Neill finished ninth in the championship which was an incredible achievement in a much older specification touring car beating two now World Touring Car drivers in the form of Alex Macdowall and Tom Boardman. At this particular round O'Neill finished sixth in the first race and fourth in the second, but retired in the third race.
The picture measures 12 inches by 8 inches.

2009 Le Mans Series Championship winning Lola-Aston Martin
This painting is of the 007 Lola-Aston Martin B09/60 which was raced by Jan Charouz, Tomás Enge and Stefan Mücke. The picture that this painting was done from was taken by Michael Barrett at the final round of the 2009 Le Mans Series Championship at the 1000km of Silverstone. This car finished third at that round  but won the series overall in the LMP1 class.
I painted this piece using watercolours and it measures 30 cm by 15 cm.
