Randy Owens

Randy Owens was born in Baltimore, Maryland on July 24, 1955 and grew up in Vienna, Virginia. Randy majored in fine art at Northern Virginia Community College and shortly pursued a career as a tennis professional. Randy was drawn to the vibrant colors, clean form and crisp edges of serigraphy (silkscreen printmaking) and after being introduced to auto racing in 1978, Randy began making serigraphs of motor racing subjects in his own unique style.
Randy has established a strong place in the American racing art scene, having produced over 300 handmade serigraph editions. Randy has signed his name to more original pieces of art than any other automotive artist in history. His realistic style is modern and evolutionary and the use of color and motion is the central theme.

Over the years, Randy has staged over 200 exhibitions of his work in five countries, including the Axis Galleries in Tokyo and 10 year retrospective shows at the famous l’art et l’automobile Gallery in New York City
and the National Automobile Museum in Reno, NV. Since 1991, Randy has produced an annual motor racing calendar for Bridgestone. Over the years he has done many event posters for colorful events including the Miami GP, USGP at Indianapolis and the Long Beach GP. Most recently Randy has produced official event posters for 2011 F1 Bahrain International Circuit, 2011 Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix and 2011 Inaugural Baltimore Grand Prix.
Randy currently lives and works in Davidsonville, Maryland alongside his wife, Rebecca and their two sons.


Dan McCrary
Combining a photo-realist approach to watercolor technique with a unique and adventurous sense of composition, Dan McCrary applies his vision to a wide variety of automotive subjects. The Development of reflection and shine can be played to the maximum on one piece, and then he shifts into another gear to depict in amazing detail the rust and pitted chrome of an aging derelict.


Dan was born in 1949 in Raleigh, N.C. As early as age 5, he was attending races and becoming fascinated with automobiles in general. He attended East Carolina University and worked for several years as a musician before turning to the fulltime pursuit of automotive art in the early eighties. Dan's award-winning work has been widely published and can be found in numerous prominent individual and corporate collections. He now resides in Charlotte, N.C. with his wife Lynn and daughter Danielle.

Dan Reed
Dan began drawing at a young age, thanks to encouragement from his grandfather, George Scirrotto. He loved to paint scenes in and around his home town of Philadelphia. His influence also inspired my brothers, Trevor and Jason, who are also artists.
He studied art at West Chester University in the early 1990s. During that time, the university commissioned a series of four pen & ink illustrations depicting some of the original 19th century buildings on campus. That pretty much started the ball rolling. Dan explored many pen & ink techniques, and soon began adding color with pencils and water color. His first art-related job was working for a local graphic design studio illustrating new homes for real estate brochures. Today, the majority of Dan’s artwork is based around my love of classic automobiles. However, he also enjoys keeping active in architectural rendering, train illustrations and pet portraits.

The free-lance illustration end of the business keeps him pretty busy, but he does find time for the occasional computer and logo designs. Dan works out of a one room studio in the Hamburg Pennsylvania home he shares with his wife Heather and their five dogs.

Tony Sikorski

After winning a scholarship at the Ivy Art Institute of Graphic Design in Pittsburgh, Tony Sikorski began his career in 1963. In 1976, he started his own business and has created graphic designs and illustrations for numerous well-known companies in the United States. In addition to his accomplishments in graphic arts, Tony has had a love affair with the automobile for as long as he can remember. Specifically, the 1930s Formula 1 and vintage racing cars have a special place in his heart and in his artistic talents.
In 1995, he began creating one-of-a-kind sculptures using corrugated cardboard as a medium. A few years later, he began using wood as well. And in 2006, added stainless steel to his palette of materials. Tony’s award-winning corrugated classics have been displayed at many invitational motor sports art exhibitions. His ability to capture power, speed, and motion of the automobile has resulted in illustrated and sculptural commissions in both the corporate and private sectors. His work has also earned feature presentations in Car Collector, Robb Report, Mobilia, Automobile Magazine, AutoWeek, and Classic and Sportscar Magazine. Notably, Classic and Sportscar Magazine esteems Tony Sikorski as one of the top 20 motoring artists of the past 20 years.
The list of Tony’s awards in automobile sculpture design has grown considerably. In 1995, and again in 2002, he placed first at the Midwest Concours d’Elegance in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1997, the Gilmore Classic Car Museum’s Concours in Gilmore, Michigan honored him with the Award of Excellence. For three consecutive years, 1996-1998, Sikorski won the coveted John Burges Award: Best Show at the Daimler Chrysler Meadow Brook Historic Races.
In May 2000, Tony was invited to the Meadow Brook Concours d’Elegance Invitational Artist Exhibition in Rochester, Michigan. Honors were bestowed again in 2001 as he received the Struthers MacMinn Award: Best Show at Meadow Brook. In 2002, he won the Stanley Wanlass “Spirit of the Automobilist” Award at Meadow Brook. And in 2004, Tony was accepted into the Automobile Fine Arts Society—a very distinguished honor—which entitles him to show at Pebble Beach and Amelia Islands, Florida AFAS shows. Continuing in that true “spirit of the automobilist,” and enjoying a love affair with the automobile, Tony is currently working on new and creative projects.
