Porsche is Art in These 9 Stimulating Pieces
The design of the Porsche is something of beauty that has remained untouched over the years and is celebrated by motoring enthusiasts all around the world. Each of these pieces pays homage to Porsche and their magnificent creations with a couple of these using the 911 itself as a canvas.
1. 997 Watercolors
This piece was painted by Rennlist member desmoh and it is for Christmas time enjoyment.
2. JJ's Custom 356C
Janis Joplin's 356 C 1600 SCPorsche went for $1.76 million at an auction. The car was given to her roadie along with $500 to decorate the car with some new paint. What resulted was a base coat of candy apple red along with portraits of Big Brother, the Holding Company band members, and "The Eye of God" among other motifs.
3. 1968 907
This painting is of the racing car that was built by Porsche in 1968. The car was built for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and featured a driver seat that was moved from the left to the right to give an advantage on the clockwise track. This print can be found at Design Pieri Auto Art but the artist behind the work is unknown.
4. The Crest
This stunning piece depicts the iconic Porsche shield and is a must for any fan to proudly mount in their home or garage. Toby Wilkinson is the artist behind the piece, and he has much fun creating arresting and invigorating art that needs to be seen as well as shared.
5. Red Rear 911
This one comes courtesy of automotive photographer Stuart Row and depicts a red 911 in the pits waiting to be unleashed again. Stuart Row who calls Australia home has a love affair with the 911 that has not been tempered by the years he has spent painting them.
6. 911 RSR at Daytona 24
This piece was painted by Doug Garrison and is a beautiful print of the amazing car going the distance at Daytona. If you visit his website you have three options to buying any print you see. There are size varying originals, master prints that are reproductions of the original, or you can get for the cheapest price, a signed and numbered smaller print.
7. Porsche Turbo S
Painted by Timothy Raines in a way that appears to be calculated paint splatters to make up the beautiful and distinctive rear of the 991. The portfolio of the artist ranges from abstracts to blooms and sports art. However, if you are only interested in what he has created in the vein of the automobile, look no further than his collection in Motorsports Art.
8. Art Car
This car comes courtesy of artist Michael Perez and Champion Porsche in a collaboration for Art Basal Miami. Pop artist Michael Perez covered the 2014 911 Cabrio in over 12 of his original paintings. Michael hopes that he can keep the importance of the arts alive forever.
9. Two Pink Porsche
These two Carrera RS cars find themselves in a sort of desert oasis that is as unforgiving as it is refreshing. This comes from UK artist Chris Labrooy, and is part of his three piece collection on the 911.
