[Book Review] Ferrari in Art: A Celebration of the Legend

Ferrari in Art: A Celebration of the Legend

By Paul Chenard


The well-known saying holds that beauty is found in the eye of the beholder, and whether you happen to be a Ferrari fanatic, or simply an ordinary everyday automotive enthusiast, this new offering from Canadian illustrator Paul Chenard is a shining example of beauty to be beheld. Chenard’s brilliantly understated style combines his mastery of pen-and-ink drawing with watercolor embellishment to arrive at a number of unique images from the past that illuminate the featured subject while consigning its surroundings to the still-important background. Other pages feature full-color drawings. In addition to the two dozen works within the pages of the book, Chenard is also offering individual purchasers their choice of an 8×10-inch poster of one of four selected impressions, with details of the bonus offer to be found inside the back cover of the book.

As this book has been self-published by the author through Blurb Books, it is available for US$68.79 at www.blurb.com/books/6772551-ferrari-in-art. It’s an artistic opportunity not to be missed.
