Mike Harbar Classic Lines Artist

Mike is English born and bred and is passionate about cars and drawing them. He has drawn the lot from AC Cobra to Zagato. Since moving to Australia in 2000 Mike has continued his work as a freelance car illustrator with over 200 very satisfied customers world-wide, producing commissioned artwork for magazines, car specialists, club events and private enthusiasts. With an industrial design background and having been a member of the UK Guild of Motoring Artists and the Australian Automotive Artists, Mike understands every aspect from the technical engineering to the artistic flowing lines, page layout and printing. This is very apparent when you see the accuracy and detail he can achieve just by using lead pencil and water colour. He works with a range of media including detailed pencil illustration, line drawing, watercolour and marker rendering. As you browse through these artwork, keep an eye out for Mike's trademark - a church spire hidden in the detail. Like Cuneo's mouse and "Where's Wally", the spire adds a bit of fun to each work, and symbolises Mike's love of the English countryside and Christian faith. Happy hunting!
