Brian began painting at junior school where teachers recognised his talent and encouraged him to attend art college. Following an apprenticeship in engineering, Brian launched his own production engineering company, filing a number of development patents and later became a successful entrepreneur – managing businesses involved in the design and manufacture of mining machinery, acrylic fabrications, textiles equipment, sportswear and screenprinting development – still painting in his spare time.

Painting Title: Formula One … I Am Power

“If everything seems under control, you’re just not going fast enough.”
Mario Andretti

Since 1950 The FIA Formula One World Championship has been one of the premier sports in the world and is probably the pinnacle of motor racing. The reasons behind its allure are many – the tracks and glamorous locations, the sheer feat of engineering mixed with technology but most of all the thrill of speed.

I wanted to try and capture that feeling in this painting of a formula one car, an interpretation of a gleaming red Ferrari roaring past in a haze of other colours.

Acrylic on canvas.

Size: 18" x 14" canvas
