This is probably my favourite sketch from this years Brit & Euro Car Show at Lloyd Elsmore Park. Something like 3000 classics were on show (including our MG). To be honest it's a stressful day where I draw as fast as I can in a bid to draw as many cars as possible! This year I got to sketch a gorgeous yellow AC ACECA – so good to see one in the flesh for the first time – a historic Citroen delivery van working as a coffee cart and this scene above – the Alvis club display captured fast and loose in gouache.
My tribute sketch to the late Florian Afflerbach, or Flaf, as he was known. He sadly passed away in a motorbike accident earlier this year. Flaf was an artist and architect who drew an awesome building or car and his cars were often drawn using curvilinear perspective. I've tried to do the MG in that style as a tribute.
