Artist Reply: I could have done this like the movie showed it, but this one got darker as I worked on it, due to the death of one of the youth racers in the end...driving off the cliff as a dare!

Artist Reply: Will, thanks for the compliment on this art piece honoring James Dean. I have been enjoying my pen/ink pieces,...even in color, more recently. I used to do all of them in blk./wht........so, thanks for sending me a message of support. I sure will take a look at your artwork, which sounds very interesting and complicated. "Photorealistic colored pencil paintings on matte surfaced Dura-lar polyester film" must have some great effects to them! Most appreciative, Will and I shall be looking at your works! Mark
