Bikers have always intrigued me as models, maybe because of their wild and free nature. But until recently I haven’t had the occasion to get pictures of any of these guys so that I might paint them. A group of bikers descended upon a campground I was staying at out of Red Lodge, MT., and the rest is history!

I confess I did do some editing of the vest patch verbage, and did try to make my painting a little more generic than my original photos. The subject was great fun and I found a little looser style when doing this painting! I hope to continue in that direction.
