Artist's Comments

This is my husband's newest vehicle. It is a 1972 Buick Riviera Boat Tail. The lines of this car are simply beautiful, the way that it curves and flows. This is what cars used to look like, back when cars were actually designed with the basics of art in mind. True, the cars these days are still beautiful but none seem to be able to live up to how they USED to be made. So many times I have heard 'They don't make cars like they used to...' In many ways that is a good thing...but in others it is not. We are missing the elegant beauty of these machines because people want something 'edgy' or 'mean'. Whatever happened to the simple lines and beauty of an Impala? Or the sexy lines of a Cadillac? Or the speed of a Corvette? The cars that looked like they were going 50 mph when they were standing still?

Forgive the rant, I just wanted you to understand why there are so many vehicles in my Gallery. It is more than just the fact that we are proud of the ones we have. It is the history and the beauty that these machines represent.

*gets down off her soap box*

Just enjoy the pic. Kay?

People see the consequences instead of the art. They will not care for what it is, as long as it has incredible speed, or will mark attention on them, and them only. That's not art, thats egotistical. You will not see many artistic vehicles nowadays anyway...

It scares me how much people are blinded to the beauty of the world because of their obsession with 'me'.

Yup. But then, can you imagine a world purely artistical? Life would lose of it's balance, being purely out of control, as long as it's design become beauty of heart. In other words, not everybody sees art the same way, thus making the world a far worst place than it is now.

We need blind idiots like we need laws. pathetic, no? ; )

LOL!! Yes, it is. To think that it is those idiots with 'Too much bloody money' that make the world so diverse. Still, it is like they always say...you need the bad to know how good the good really is.
