Indianapolis Motor Speedway® 100th Anniversary Study – SP

To create my tribute painting as the official artist for the Centennial Era of this famous speedway, I was allowed to take my sketching materials right onto the grounds of the track. I even got to set up and work at the famous brickyard starting line! As I worked, I envisioned a crowd of cheering spectators from each of the generations that have embraced the track as an American icon. I even envisioned including famous cars from the golden age of racing in my painting. The finished work required countless studio hours, and an immense amount of final detailing. I hope you will join me in saluting the Indianapolis Motor Speedway^® as it celebrates 100 years of Indy^® Excitement.

Studio Proof

The Studio Proof Limited Editions can differ depending on release date. Images released prior to April 6, 2012, are created with a textured brushstroke process that recreates the artist’s actual brushwork. A Master Highlighter then finishes and hand sketches an original and identifying Remarque on the verso side of the canvas. The artist then places final highlights himself, and hand signed the front of the canvas in metallic ink. Lastly, a foil stamped gold Studio Proof seal is applied to the verso side. S/P is applied during the numbering process to designate the piece as a Studio Proof.

Images released after April 6, 2012, are a special reserve edition. Each is created with a unique textured brushstroke process. A Master Highlighter then enhances the image with additional highlights and hand sketches an original and identifying Remarque on the verso side of the canvas. Lastly, a foil-stamped gold Studio Proof seal is applied to the back of the canvas. S/P is added during the numbering process to designate the piece a Studio Proof, and a metallic authorized signature is applied to the front of the canvas.
