About the Old Classics Series

When I was a little kid, I would play outside next to my father's classic 1950s black Mercedes Benz 170 SD. Just being next to it transported me to another time. I don't know if you remember Micro-Machines, but I had a whole collection of classic model Micro-Machines and Hot Wheels which was pretty unique for a girl in my day. I would line them up and shine them. I love the older models for their designs. I have been disappointed in most modern car designs ever since. Somewhere along the way designers would forgo the intricate curves and details for efficiency and futurism.
​
One day, just fresh out of the studio, I was marinating on my next series at a local coffee spot. When I emerged from the den of rich flavor, as if lined up in a photoshoot just for me was a row of classics. I opened my vision and realized 4 city blocks were full of classics for the car show. I honed in on the Model T with the surfboard in back right away, and got my shot. Jumped in my truck and headed back to the studio!
​
My relationship with my vehicles falls nothing short of animism.
