Studio Find Is A Historical Treasure Trove Of Collectible Vehicles

May 18th, 2014 - Irvington-on-Hudson, NY

Jay Leno: “Any car can be a collector car. Collect it.”


Dan Knowler: “Car Art Portraits are made for every collector. ”

what: Car Art Portraits introduce a new category of collectible automobilia: affordable, appreciating original art. Stunning studio tributes,Car Art Portraits go beyond merely illustrating significant autos: they’re seen in authentic settings and often sport related ephemera and informative background texts. 

Browse our gallery of lovingly depicted, valuable and interesting cars at www.CarArtPortraits.com.

why: Did you know car enthusiasts make over 27 million collector-related Google searches per month? Car Art Portraits appeal to millions of auto hobbyists worldwide—from serious investors to small-budget, average-Joe car guys (and gals). They drive this vital preservation hobby, nurturing the warm memories of our time-tested love affair with the automobile. But some aspiring collectors are road-blocked by converging market forces of shrinking options and rising costs.

Clearing the road to expand this automotive history audience, Car Art Portraits offer the world’s wide range of notable vehicles—from Auburns to ZILs, Brass Era to “just yesterday,” cars to trucks to buses to hearses, and restomods to exotics to racers to muscle cars to rat rods—plus orphans and oddballs. 
Car Art Portraits are every auto buff’s green light: “Go. Collect all your “must-have” models!”

how: Car Art Portraits are digitally-crafted, mixing painting, sketching, snapshots and historical references. They’re delivered on heavy stock or artist-quality watercolor paper or painter’s linen canvas in a range of sizes, ready-to-hang or frame. American-made and reasonably priced for all car hobbyist collectors—as low as $14.99!—original Car Art Portraits are destined for proud display.


who: A lifelong artist and car nut—a classic classroom doodler—I still passionately feel every vehicle’s colors, curves, glints, sounds and smells. I share my unique visions as Car Art Portraits.

where: Creating Car Art Portraits in my small, scenic river town studio—when I’m not at car events, that is!
