As Michael said when starting this extremely popular series, "... if you're going to dream, then dream big!" What car collector hasn't dreamed about coming across a forgotten building, field, forest or 'graveyard' of their favorite classics? And to make this dream even bigger and better, there's no rust to be found on any of them! In 'Muscle Car Landscapes', Michael wanted to take the cars off the black top and put them in a more organic setting, allowing him to play with the cast shadows, colorful ground cover and place hidden gems in the grass.

“We've all heard the stories about that low mileage, well preserved muscle car found in a barn. What if instead of just looking inside the barn, you ventured beyond it, to make the ultimate find. Not just one ... but an entire collection of high performance vintage iron.

“After spending a few days under the tents at the Barrett-Jackson Auction, surrounded by some really nice cars, it was time to experience Arizona's 70 mph speed limit!

“Many of the roads we’ve traveled have taken us through beautiful farm country across North America. Images of rolling hills, flat fields, and old barns really inspired me when I started this series.

“... talking with “Jerry” about the field of Corvettes really peaked my interest. So much so, that I decided to create a painting of the location, based solely on my mind’s interpretation of 'Jerry's' description. I personally have not seen this field of more than 500 Vettes, nor do I now it's exact location — I wish I did. So, please, don't call or email... “... talking with “Jerry” about the...

“As an artist who also collects cars, I want to create scenes and stories that intrigue me and other like-minded people. With that in mind, I painted 'Always Room For One More' 8 years ago. With this piece, I'm matching scale, size, proportion and color palette, but also nuances of my style back then. Let's just say, this painting was definitely... “As an artist who also collects cars,...

“In creating a trilogy like this, the challenge is bringing the three paintings together to make one grand story. Each piece needs to work with the other two, as well as stand on it’s own. I painted ‘Always Room For One More’ in 2007, so really, this idea came together over an 8 year period. I wanted to bring to life the excitement of collecting cars and... “In creating a trilogy like this, the...

“In this painting, we join the goat farmer as he takes a break from his daily routine to just sit on his tractor and admire his other goats. A smile crosses his face.
