Racing art of a period British racer tearing through a screen print poster. Two colors is all it takes with the highlighted non printed white to add the sparkle of movement. Tres Bien!

Powerful paintings of icons on Triumphs by John Froehlich. Slight abstraction of classic images depicting Steve McQueen as Hilts and Marlon Brando as Johhny.

Another example Louise Jennison’s Windsor & Newton daubing. This time the stoic Triumph Thunderbird in pools of watercolor.
Cobbled setting for a real-life item. Granite sets rumble under a twins noisy texture.
Airbrushed accuracy on promotional artwork. Technically accurate as a contrast to the earlier brushwork.

This hand painted leather jacket has it all: the Triumph classic logo banners the lumbar, Californian locale pasted across the shoulders, and a hefty race number daubed broadly upon the main area. Time worn and off white adds to the grittiness.

A wandering Google trawl turned up this website. Some nice dynamic motorcycle sketches with a fluid line.
Ogri-esque which hint at solidity as well as movement with space between the lines and a crisp detail, an artistic flair and jolly attitude. Jon Tremlett is the penman and he’s a designer in West London.

A store display offering items for the distinguished cafe racer rider. Pudd’n bowls as well as open-face Davida’s. Pilot goggles and silk scarves as well as a badge buckled belt. The pins adorning the leather jackets lapel are a neat detail too.
The fair fronted latter day Thruxton is looking the part too. Alloy tank? Why certainly sir!

Bonneville wave: a cute couple speeding along into the sixties on their travel ready Triumph. Sunny days ahead for the decade of the space-race, free love and the burgeoning optimism expected under the young JFK.

Krampus: Saint Nick’s hornéd counterpart who takes care of bad kids! He’s the one who rides motorcycles; Santy just sits in the chair… Good old pagan rituals still strong during this season of goodwill…
Merry Christmas!

Fairing Fun: faded mag advert with long coated rider cutting a stylish dash with a streamlined nosepiece. Bubble visor and smart Italian boots. That coat will flutter madly though…

Today’s advent door reveals a chocolate bike. Cadburys is the best milk chocolate for this to be made with. It also reminds me of the selection boxes you’d get…

Let’s bust into this week with Joe Dredd roaring his Lawmaster through the page. Classic Brian Bolland artwork that has never been bettered.
