Ian Cook’s artwork and prints are wonderful - they’re a great contemporary take on classic automotive art - with great splatterings of paint and inventive ways of graffitiing. Seeing him at live events is worthwhile if you can, otherwise visit his shop for a range of fantastic and eye catching prints.
