If you look back at a lot of the Pin-Up art from the 40’s & 50’s you will notice a common thread – Hot Rods show up in a lot of them - or rather the Hot Rod & Pin-up images showed up in a lot of auto shops on tool boxes etc. I have always enjoyed creating images that were reminiscent of this distinctly American Popular Art form.
