Taylormade Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I just discovered the work of Martin Lewis, an Australian born artist that worked mostly in New York in the twenties and thirties. Any antique car buff should like these magnificent etchings that really capture the feel of the period. Mr. Lewis passed away in 1962 and is virtually forgotten today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnseeker Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Those are pretty amazing. I did alot of artwork with similar subjects in Highschool and after. I always look at the little things that were so hard to create/ capture in pen and ink. He seems to have mastered all the areas that I either never did or took a long time to figure out how. Do you have any more by him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Wildeisen Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Top shelf stuff! I wounder if those are thoughts that he put on paper, or was he drawing a scene that he was looking at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipdang Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Amazing. One could almost get lost within the images - they're so good at eliciting emotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
