The Study for the Studio Masterworks was used as the cover art for the Gala's commemorative Program Book. What an honor! My Studio Masterwork of Indy Excitement, 100 Years of Racing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway will be the cover of the 2009 Indy 500 Program Cover! The artwork I unveiled at the Gala - on the cover for 350,000 fans to see! Another amazing honor!
How can I even describe being with all these motorsports greats? A. J. Foyt, Al Mears and Rick Mears on stage and recognized for their contribution to the history of the Speedway and the Indy 500! Everyone was so gracious and loved the way I captured the Speedway - what an amazing compliment - I'll always treasure their words.
And, what a hoot! We had a photo taken with the “founders” of the Speedway with the trophy from the 1920’s – imagine being the winner and having to pick that thing up?! It was an incredible evening and an honor to be with them all.
When Dario came over to our table to get his book signed, both Nanette and I were thrilled! A great guy - his passion for what he does is so obvious.
