Prize kindly donated by Popbangcolour: Regularly jetting off to motoring events around the world, PopBangColour creates beautiful, colourful pieces based on his passion for legendary cars. What’s more, he doesn’t need any paintbrushes as he creates all of his artwork with a set of paint-covered toy cars!

“Ian Cook is a contemporary British artist internationally known for his unique form of painting. Ian creates his art solely using the method of radio-controlled cars, car tyres and toy car wheels as his paintbrushes.

With a first degree in Fine Art Painting from Winchester School of Art, Ian has a quirky edge and describes his work as a ‘friendly explosion of colour’ which captures attention through his unusual method of working and the premise of live performance art at automotive events.

Essentially – the idea for the process started for a number of reasons, Ian is an avid car enthusiast, a trained artist, and thirdly he was bought a radio controlled car for a Christmas present and was told “not to take it down the studio, and not to get paint on it”…(lightbulb moment) … so like any bloke would – he listened to a bit of that conversation.

Many years later, having combined his passion of cars, toys and art, Ian has created complex and dynamic artworks including one the size of a three storey building, painted with real cars, featured on TV and travelled to different parts of the globe with a suitcase full of paint covered cars.”

Tom Wood (@TCJW_Designs), our resident art-lover and in-house graphic designer has this to say about Ian’s work:

“PopBangColour’s playful and colourful work clearly shows his excitement and passion for cars and motorsport. The motion of the subjects in each piece positively leaks out of every stroke – a feeling exemplified by knowing the art was itself made with toy cars and tyres in motion.

A great prize for any lover of great art and great motors!”
