Artist's Description
YOU TOO CAN COMMISSION MIKE TO PAINT YOUR VERY OWN ORIGINAL OF YOUR FAVOURITE VEHICLE, A SOUND INVESTMENT FROM WHOM MANY REGARD AS BRITAIN'S LEADING TRANSPORT ARTIST. JUST E-MAIL mike@transportartist.co.uk
Bringing a little colour to a rainy day in Glasgow�s Sauchiehall Street Standard tram makes its way East closely pursued by an Albion eight-wheeled tanker carrying Guinness a brew drunk with a whisky chaser that cheered many a heart in the grim surroundings of Glasgow�s tenements.
For 90 years from 1872 to 1962 the trams of Scotland�s largest, some would say finest, city [ unless you are a native of Edinburgh]
served Glaswegians faithfully but sadly were discarded for more �efficent� forms of public transport in the decade that destroyed forever a lot of what was good about Britain but are still fondly remembered by all old enough to have used them.
The original of this painting was in oils on a 20″�30″ canvas.
About Mike Jeffries
COMMISSION A PAINTING FROM MIKE. It is with great regret that I have to inform you that Mike sadly passed away November 2020 aged 81, but I, (his partner) will keep his shop here going and am happy to reply to any emails you might send to his own email address at mike@transportartist.co.uk. Virtually nobody considered the humble lorry worthy of the subject of a painting until Mike made it so. Years of being at the sharp end of long distance HGV driving has given him an insight and knowledge into the industry that enables Mike to depict lorries as they really were in the past and not the idealized view of the less knowledgeable making him the man to paint an original of your favourite commercial vehicle. He is without a doubt THE lorry...
