Thanks for visiting my ArtRacer online gallery. Let me introduce myself.

I am Lawrence Gardinier II and I have the good fortune to wake up early in the morning and paint all day. When I was growing up my father drag raced and later collected cars. I showed artistic talent and a passion for cars at a very young age. When my parents discovered my gift they encouraged me to pursue this career. While I have been a professional automotive artist since 1990 I have always been an automotive artist. I am, for the most part, a self taught artist. I have developed my own methods and techniques to create my work. I am continuously advancing my knowledge of my materials and evolve as an artist by changing my styles. I still believe that I'm only as good as my last painting so I work very hard to create my best painting every time.
