Earth Dreams

Honda doing their bit for the environment. The car had the earth on it with a black background. The only logos being their own Honda Type R and Bridgestone. They worked with My Earth Dreams to put the fans names on the car for doing something positive to aid the environment. I was delighted to give up ironing (not done again to this day!).
Acrylics on 30.5 cm square deep canvas. Edge in dark purple.

The project was called My Earth Dreams. The year is 2007. Honda were in Formula One. Jenson Button and Christian Klein in the driving seat. They had a year of doing something a little bit different with the livery. It gave the F1 fans the chance to give something back to the environment and get their names on the RA-107 car in the process.
On my travels around F1 I’d been fortunate to make a great friend of an F1 journalist. He also arranged tours at that time for fans to races and other F1 related places. I saw the car being made at the factory in Brackley. This meant I had a real close up of the nose where my name was! My Earth Dreams being to give up ironing which is not a great hardship for an artist and traveller. Shirts/blouse and things that need creases taking out aren’t found in my wardrobe!
Inspired by this and seeing the racing live in Barcelona I created this vibrant semi-abstract 30.5 cm square acrylic on deep canvas.
