1960 Muscle cars were evolved from the pent-up consumerism (and the “boomers”) that exploded after World War II. Coming out of the 50’s, it seemed car buyers opted for bigger and faster cars.

A PAINTING A DAY
A PAINTING A DAY arose out of the observation that human creativity can take the path of least resistance at times. And given the choice between painting and not painting, the later often wins. A PAINTING A DAY is the pursuit of "trying" to create a piece of art every day. These are done usually with thick paint and a pallet knife....if one every interests you, shoot me an email at matt@hirsheimer.com and I will be glad to ship it to you for $100 ($150 framed), no questions asked.
Finally, a new PAINTING A DAY….only this time 4 new ones. A friend of mine at work has a husband who owns two 1960’s muscle cars…One Dodge (bronze) and one Plymouth (red). Both in terrific shape. Well with the holidays rolling around, this lucky guy is going to have his cars memorialized on canvas.
