Live Wire explores the thrill of racing. The painting features a 1969 McLaren M7C. The world pulls back as the driver's focus hones in.
Artist's Statement:
Driving for me is about freedom. This isn’t about how it looks but how it feels. Power, anticipation, exhilaration: to slip through on the edge of control. It’s finding that line between forward and stillness. Just like in the paintings, speed blurs the world as your focus is sharpened, spirit is calmed as you burn through space. This work is about freedom to be in a moment. It’s an energy that pushes every onward. This is Momentum.
