About Shane

Hi, I’m Shane, a contemporary artist with a particular passion for automotive design. My work celebrates not only the form and character of remarkable cars, but also the emotion, memories and personal stories behind them.

My artwork has been exhibited in galleries in Brighton and Arundel, Sussex, and in 2023 I was selected as one of just 400 contemporary artists from around the world to exhibit at the London Art Biennale in Chelsea.

For me, creating automotive art is about much more than simply producing an image of a car. I aim to create something expressive and emotive that captures the design, individuality and character of each vehicle. Many of my artworks are private commissions featuring my clients’ own cars, incorporating personal details such as their actual registration plates to make every piece genuinely unique.

I have also had the privilege of collaborating with the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust on a special collection commemorating the 65th anniversary of the legendary Jaguar E-type roadster, 77 RW. Famously driven overnight to Geneva by Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis to support the E-type’s 1961 launch, this remarkable car inspired me to create a limited edition of just 30 hand-finished original artworks.

Continuing my celebration of Jaguar’s design heritage, I have also created work to mark the 30th anniversary of the original 1996 X100 Jaguar XK8, with a limited edition of 30 hand-finished originals planned.

Alongside these special editions, a selection of my existing artwork is available to purchase. I also welcome commissions from owners who would like to celebrate their own car through a unique and personal piece of art.

If you would like to purchase one of my existing works, enquire about a limited edition, or commission a unique artwork of your own car, please get in touch using the contact form below.
