STEVE McQUEEN


"McQueen Cool" A new painting just released by David Lloyd Glover. 16" x 24" acrylic on canvas.

Nobody was ever more cool than Steve McQueen. He was a regular sight in Hollywood during the 1950's and 60's barreling along Mulholland Drive in a hot Jaguar or scrambling the Santa Monica mountains on his dirt bike. Equipped with his trademark RayBans and his Jay Sebring haircut, Steve McQueen was just the coolest guy around. Steve was known for his driving skill and was a regular pro/am racer. In this portrait study, McQueen is wearing the Nomex racing suit in preparation for a race. The original painting will be available for viewing at Art Brillant Gallery Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills.
