    Very cool GT40 painting by artist Scott Jacobs

    Great observation Ron and you don't need to be an art expert to know what you like. Photo-Realism is an accepted fine art style and Jacobs' acclaim comes more from his technique than a specific subject matter. If you saw this piece in person you probably would swear it was a photo and not a...

    Very cool GT40 painting by artist Scott Jacobs

    Malcolm, my man, the eyesight's not what it used to be but I determine fine art from 30 yrs experience collecting it. Illustrative is not necessarily inferior and Duggan is quite good as I mentioned. Check this piece by Jacobs and you may begin to see what this conversation is about. Special K...

    Thanks Jim for that input; I was not aware of that side of his rep. I'm a Harley guy too so I tend to take things at face value. Stepping on toes is frowned upon in HD land. My understanding has been that he is very charitable; especially to kid's causes.

    Very cool GT40 painting by artist Scott Jacobs

    Whoa guys, just thought some folks might like to know that a major artist took an interest in a car that commemorated the original GT40 and spent a lot of hours to pay homage to the subject. Mr. Shelby obviously felt he was "involved" enough in the project to sign each of these artworks.

    Very cool GT40 painting by artist Scott Jacobs

    This painting, INTIMIDATION, was unveiled at Barrett Jackson and created quite a stir, especially amongst GT owners. Artist Scott Jacobs is one of the top photo-realist artists alive and the detail in the work is off the charts . He paints freehand and old school (twelve camel hair brush) and...
