3 some Audi
Oil on a printed magazine about wine, painted in 2002.
This work brings together three Audi appearances in one image: the aged green Audi 80 at left, the same model again as a dark rear view at lower right, and above it the familiar front of an Audi 100 in its typical metallic beige. The cars do not sit clearly apart, but drift through one another like layered memories of a period in Audi design. A beloved little picturesque detail is the windscreen wiper grows out of former letters, and the Audi logo rings seem to loosen with age like the owners of that today rare model.
Painted over a wine magazine, the whole image feels matured rather than polished.
