Dana Forrester Corvette Print “The Golden Girl” – C7 Torch Red Z06
“The Golden Girl,” features a Torch Red C7 Z06 coupe beside a vintage Golden Girl Cola sign complete with its green bottle and the blonde bombshell swimsuit model. This painting was one of my “in progress” demonstration works which traveled with me to demonstrate that my work is done by hand without ANY computer assistance. The overlapping wall sign is one of my best as I’ve also hidden signs for Vernors Ginger Ale, Town Crier Flour, Holsum Bread, and Diamond R Grocery. There are a lot of hidden colors in this one along with a hidden message you should ask about.
Size 11 X 17 Can be ordered in larger sizes as well.
Dana Forrester began painting his brick wall series in the mid-seventies and won many Regional and National Awards for his focus on weathered and layered advertising signs painted on brick walls. It was truly a unique and direct look at the world, often showing the viewer a subject he had not noticed before. Dana was elected as a Signature Member of the American Watercolor Society and of the National Watercolor Society in the early eighties, then began painting full time in 1987. His world changed a year later when he bought his first Sting Ray Corvette, the car which brought about a change in the subject of his art. He has continued to explore the theme of brick buildings and advertising art while using the collector automobile as a major element of his work. Dana creates about ten to twelve major works a year for publication as well as a number of commissioned watercolors for collectors wanting an original painting of a subject special to them. His paintings are included in many private, corporate, and museum collections worldwide. Currently he owns three significant Corvettes and has plans for more, a fact that separates Dana from other automotive artists.
