Signed limited edition of 50 Gallery Edition giclee on canvas The sights and sounds of Woodward Ave come to life in this incredible tribute to the Mercury Marauder.

Adding to the excitement, the silver Florida Patrol car lights up the night with it's emergency lights! The annual Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit, Michigan is billed as the world’s largest one-day automotive event, drawing 1.5 million people and over 40,000 classic cars from around the globe. Bringing out the best of the best as well as some of the world's most unique automobiles, it's where you might catch a rare glimpse of a historical race car like the #15 Mercury Marauder driven by Parnelli Jones, or see one of the nation's largest Marauder gatherings.
“When the Motor City Marauders approached me about doing a painting
featuring the 2003/2004 Marauder, they mentioned that each year they put on
a show at the Burger King right on Woodward Ave. When Linda, the kids, and I
attended the Cruise a few years back, it seemed like Duggan's was definatley
a hot spot. I liked the look of the awning and signage at dusk - it provided
the perfect luminescent backdrop I was looking for. Turns out, it's also
right across the street from the Burger King, making it the perfect setting
for the painting.

It's
the early '70s and a summer storm has just passed, leaving in it's wake a
service station doing a booming business. Now that the driver of the
dual tanker truck has done his job, the Cudas are circling - eager to fill
their tanks!
Michael's
comment: "I've always liked the idea of adding a gasoline
tanker as the primary reflective surface in one of my paintings. The
way the tanker's shape compressed reflections presented an interesting
challenge, that I couldn't resist.

Signed limited edition giclee on canvas Most all automotive enthusiasts have, at some time, probably had a car or two they had every intention of restoring, just never got around to it. But even as the car just sits there, no matter what shape it's in, they still enjoy looking at it ... glad to have that 'diamond in the rough' in their collection!
"The Goat Farmer" is the 5th painting in Michael's Muscle Car Landscape Series. The setting and story were inspired by the GTO's nickname and by the people who hang on to their car collections, no matter what. Some hope to restore them eventually, while others are content to watch nature take it's toll.
No matter what kind of collector you are or the condition of the cars, we all have one thing in common ... we love muscle cars and sometimes, we take pleasure in just looking at them!
Considered by many to be the first muscle car built, this painting is the ultimate tribute to one of history's most trend setting automobiles. From the legendary Tri-power of the '66 GTO to the tire-scorching might of the 400 ci Ram Air IV equipped Judge, this gathering of goats contains some of the most memorable high-performance Pontiacs ever created.

Larry's Charger Rte 440 Drive In Looks Like a Showfield! "The Chase Lives On" Signed limited edition of 800
Whenever I see a green '67
or '68 Mustang fastback, I immediately, and without thinking, conjure up
images of Lt. Frank Bullitt piloting his Mustang down the streets of San
Francisco in pursuit of the menacing 1968 Charger. From
the first time I watched the movie, "Bullitt," I thought to myself
... "That looks like fun. I would love to do that!" ... As
with most of Michael's work, it's all in the details.
