Michael Jekot

I stumbled across Michael Jekot’s web site this morning and saw some paintings that I like quite a bit. The Porsche 917/Auto Union portrait above is especially resonant – I saw 917s race at Watkins Glen way back when. Although I prefer the Martini paint job (even then – the lure of psychedelia >grin<) the Gulf colors are likely the canonical version. The Auto Union silver arrows are also faves of mine – a perfect blend of function and just enough form to cover.
