This Dale Earnhart painting was completed in December. Initially I was going with basic white pastel on black, and later added in full colour to the sunglasses, along with a red glow around the whole image.
Similar style was used in a painting several years ago of John Lennon.

Hey Pam! Love your work! Glad to make contact again after all these years.
Love the energized lines around your subjects. ‘Aggressive’ red for Dale and ‘Electric’ blue/violet for John. Coincidentally I was just reading of Toulouse-Lautrec’s poster of Caudieux ,1893 and his use of a green outline perhaps to emphasize speed.
Glad you went with colour in the sunglasses! Amazing! Kevin
