Not sure if this belongs here, but I've decided the walls in my house look too bare, and that some motorsport artwork is the order of the day. I've decided I want one I saw on eBay of James Hunt's McLaren, there's a good one of Senna at Monaco too, but one I really want is Senna and Prost locked together at Suzuka in 1989:



Any help finding an artist's take on this would be appreciated. I'd prefer prints as to get some of the original paintings I'd have to sell my Panda many times over.

Not likely to find an artistic rendition of this as it doesn't really lend itself to that type of medium. Best to get a decent JPEG and run it through a filter on Photoshop.

For others, search Alex Reade or pop into their shop at Brands or Covent Garden (if they are still there).

Ah right shame, would have thought it'd be a good subject for an artist, if only because its one of the defining moments of late 80's F1. I have seen a rather good painting of the moment before they came together in 1990, although as its an original its £5000. Thanks for the tip on Photoshop, I'll give it a go soon, and I'll take a look on Alex Reade's website.

Nope, while that is a fantastic picture, the one I'm looking at is Senna in 1991 at Loew's Hairpin
