Letter of the issue

Different strokes

l love your mag and I have been buying it for years – keep up the great work, always very informative news.

The reason I’m contacting you is about an article in your last edition (Battery swap to revolutionise e-motos, AMCN Vol 70 No 18). Here is a painting l created over 10 years ago called ‘The Last Re-charge Station’ showing the same concept of a battery-exchange depot.

I have been a motorcycle artist for 40 years, with my work featuring in bike manufacturers’ conceptual designs, magazines, books, motorcycle club mags, on T-shirts, posters, flyers, etc., both here in Australia and internationally.

I have hundreds of paintings, thousands of illustrations and cartoons and have also nearly completed two books on sidecars. My first freelance paintings and 1500-word stories were for Brian Cowan of Two Wheels in 1981 and my first cartoon series was for Mac Douglas and Australian BMX News in 1984.
