This scene portrays an awesome road machine in its natural environment - at speed. A ride in this automobile is truly experiencing ground level flight.

This is an opaque watercolor (gouache) painting of the 1983 Lamborghini Countach. The automobile is still considered one of the most outrageous vehicles ever built. This particular piece of automobile art was done on mat board, which has a very pronounced texture that shows through the painting. The rear view exemplifies the mechanical aspects of the car and aggressive overall appearance. The title "Ground Level Flight" is very appropriate since I have experienced a ride in this awesome road machine. The rear wing and the blur of speed certainly suggest flying on the ground.

The Lamborghini is one of several Italian, exotic super cars that have become household names among car enthusiasts. It is certainly eye candy for the collector car folks.
