1970 PLYMOUTH SUPERBIRD ART DODGE DAYTONA WELLBORN AERO WING REUNION 426 MOPAR

Description: "Southern Hospitality" is a Limited-Edition fine art print from the original watercolor painting by artist Michael Irvine. It is from an edition of only 800 prints and is individually hand signed and numbered by the artist. The print is truly striking, filled with the detail, vibrant color and reflections that the artist's work is known for. The image measures 26 3/8" x 18 1/2" and is printed on high-quality acid-free stock measuring 31" x 24". As a full line dealer for the artist, prints have been stored flat and have never been framed. It comes with a signed & numbered Certificate of Authenticity from the artist. From Torino King Cobras to Talladegas and Cyclone Spoiler II's, to Superbirds, Daytonas, and Charger 500's, this painting captures just a sample of the historic 50th Anniversary of the Aero Car Reunion on the estate of Tim & Pam Wellborn. As Michael says, "inspiration for a painting can come at any time, you just have to take notice of it." A case in point was this incredible event. Walking the grounds loaded with beautiful cars, and smiling faces, along with the great weather, gave Michael that feeling that the potential for a painting was right there. Flash forward more than 2 years, he found himself watching a YouTube video of the event. It brought him back to that moment in late October in Alexander City, Alabama, sharing good times with good people. There is no photograph of this scene! While all the cars in the painting were there, Michael took artistic license with their locations. In order to put the cars up close, he had to shorten the building that houses the Wellborn personal vintage Hemi cars and compress the grounds. Equally challenging were the rolling hills and elevations at which the cars were positioned. To achieve this, he had to do dozens of drawings to get the final linear version before he went to color. Finally, with the title, Michael wanted to give credit where it was due. Incredibly gracious hosts, the Wellborn's are the epitome of "Southern Hospitality". This is one of many Irvine prints that I will be listing, so you may want to bookmark me and check back often. The print will be wrapped and rolled in a sturdy hardboard tube. Payment must be received within 4 days of auction close. If you have any questions or want additional information about this print, please ask.
