KOKA CREATES 2010 DAYTONA 500 FEATURED ART     Jay Koka was commissioned to produce the official artwork for the 2010 DAYTONA 500... NASCAR's annual iconic speedfest at the Daytona International Speedway in Florida (USA). The race took place on February 14, 2010.     Koka's unusual and exciting in-your-face, track-level between-the-cars point of view was a hit with viewers.     The 34x44" acrylic on canvas original features Matt Kenseth's No. 17 Roush Fenway Racing Ford – and runner-up finisher Kevin Harvick's No. 29 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet racing side-by-side around historic Daytona International Speedway.     The artwork was featured in many applications related to the 2010 event. CLEWORTH DOES 2010 PEBBLE BEACH POSTER     Harold Cleworth's artwork for the 2010 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance poster depicts the  classic 1934 Alfa Romeo 8C Monza placed on the lawn at Pebble with two other Alfas in the background from  the same period. The background shows the bay as seen from the lodge looking out.     Cleworth: " Painting the main car was a particularly difficult challenge as it was at the time under restoration in England and very few pictures were available for reference. In fact the very first time I will see the car will be in August at the Concours. Hope I got it right." IT'S THE 8th FOR KOKA ...2010 FCA EVENT POSTER     Jay Koka has been commissioned to create the art for the Ferrari Club of America International Meet which takes place in New Jersey, USA in October 2010.     The painting depicts the 1958 Ferrari Testa Rossa from the Simeone Collection (Philadelphia, PA, USA) from the rear. Koka chose this view because it's a little unexpected and because the effect of the car in the canyon like setting of narrow streets is dynamic and exciting.     Very well known and respected in Ferrari circles worldwide, this is Koka's eight poster for the Ferrari Club of America annual events. HEARSEY DOES GOODWOOD 2010 EVENT POSTER     The Goodwood Festival of Speed poster for 2010 is the 18th successive poster that Lord March has commissioned Peter Hearsey to illustrate for this annual event. The poster marks the centenary of Alfa-Romeo by illustrating an Alfetta 159 - the most successful Grand Prix car in the years immediately after the second world war.     Peter normally starts work in October on the following years image producing artwork for the advertising brochure and then works on the poster artwork in December and January each year . After this is completed he then also produces artwork for the T shirts, mugs and other memorabilia which is produced for the Festival. The Festival of Speed takes place each year around the beginning of July at Goodwood House in Sussex, England and is a fantastic event with cars and stars from around the world. Truly international.
