    I'm accumulating quite a bit of art and it isn't doing any good sitting in my warehouse under wraps.

    I'm interested in any local venues here in FL where I might display my work. All suggestions welcome!

    For example, if you have a cars and coffee, etc. I would love to show up with a small 10' x 10' tent and display some pieces. Or if you are having an event at the dealer I could display a few things around the showroom.

    I have a new line of aluminum prints that don't take as much room as my sculptures and start at only $375 so there can be something for everyone. They range in size from 30" x 12.5" all the way to 90" x 45" so I can accommodate any space.

    Please feel free to let me know here, thru PM, or email. Thanks!

    Are you going to HSR?
    Amelia Island, Celebration, Winter Park, Rolex 24, Barrett Jackson WPB, Mecum Kissimmee

    What other subjects have you painted besides Ferraris and F1?

    Very nice, Anthony. Do you do your own framing?

    Hi Anthony, Your stuff is beautiful, why dont you speak to FFL and see if you can display each month at Cars and Coffee, also perhaps speak to Fred, about the Toy Run ?

    Las Olas Art Festival. Held in January and March in downtown Ft Lauderdale. I have seen things like these there in the past.

    That would be perfect. I have a variety of works that ranges from 30" prints at $375, $7,000 1/10 scale resin composite sculptures, to one-off 1/4 scale hand-formed aluminum sculptures starting at $35,000

    I show at Cavallino every year and I am trying to line up Amelia and some of those events. I wanted to try and focus on some local venues to keep cost down and make the year more consistent. The problem with the big shows is they are all at the same time of year.

    I am adding new works as I type to expand out of Ferrari and into everything under the sun.

    Thak you. You can see my work at Automotive Sculpture, Automotive Art, and Design. We have a mutual friend at Universal, Pete, if you are by their showroom you can see my work in person there.

    Good to hear from you Jack! Miss having you down here, I hope the Panhandle if great.

    The company who does my aluminum prints does everything in house in the good 'ole USA including the framing. I wanted to have something at a more affordable price point that people could buy for their offices, etc. Literally all you have to do is hang them. The quality is breath taking.

    Thank you! Those are two options I'd love to do and will look into. I'll have to talk to Fred and Ron to see what they say.

    I've thought about this but was hesitant. Do you think my niche market will be there? Definitely going to check it out.

    Why don't you speak to the Ferrari Parts department to determine if they would on consignment keep some of your work on display where they sell clothing, and trinkets for Ferrari and Maserati :)

    Check with Ed Waterman or Steve Alghrim at Motorcar Gallery. They might be interested in having your work displayed there.

    There are always booths at the Las Olas Fair that contain some kind of auto art. In the past I have purchased numerous pieces of car art there that I have hanging in my garage. There sure are enough people walking through each day. Sometimes it's so crowded you can't get near the booths.

    I do. I'd love to paint your Vettes. I'm slammed until Cavallino but I'd be more than happy to start right after.

    I'm going to the FTL Cars and Coffee tomorrow. If you are there we can talk.

    Thanks Fred! I'll give you a call tomorrow if that works.

    I was planning on going to the C&C but I had to go to Naples last minute and couldn't make it.

    If any of you are going to Maranello Madness this Sunday I'll have a small 30" sample print of a Stradale on hand to show.
