VISUAL ARTS

Alister Oliver:

Alister is certifiably nuts about cars. From a very young age he can remember being fascinated by the automobile as the Grandson of a mechanic and the son of a Jaguar engineer in Nuneaton, England. As a boy Alister loved the thrill of standing in the garages when the drivers turned over their V12’s with a thundering straight-through exhaust, and hanging around the body shop where all the Jaguar  race cars were painted. He loved every minute of it.

His photography is his own interpretation of what he enjoys about the automobile. See more of his beautiful photography at his upcoming exhibit at The Gallery At 48 Natoma and at www.mywheelsonwalls.com.
