From the timeless elegance of the Mercedes-Benz 300SL to the understated beauty of the Porsche 356 Speedster, every painting is created with the patience and craftsmanship demanded by true photorealism.

S Smyth's approach is founded on observation and accuracy. Rather than simply reproducing a photograph, each artwork interprets reflections, texture and light to convey the craftsmanship and engineering that make these historic motor cars enduring icons.
