Hi All - Over the year, many friends have asked me if I would paint a Jimmy/GG tribute - I knew I would - that goes without saying - but, I couldn't quite go there yet. It took a while, but this past month, I realized I was ready to put together a composition.
After a lot of thought, reflection, and input from friends, both Jimmy's and mine, I chose to paint a static portrait with shadow - and, trying something different - I went with a backlit image, to highlight the reflections - depicting her as seen in the pits, Sunday, 2010, after winning every race they flew that week.
For several reasons, both personal and obvious, I've titled the painting: "Reflections"
This meant a lot to me, and I truly hope you will find this a fitting tribute.
Thank-you,
Dave
