I have an arrangement with the printer that anything I upload by this coming Monday will be done by Friday in time for me to send them out on Saturday...just in time for holiday gift giving.

TR3 print order is here: https://planbillustration.com/triumph-tr3-limited-edition-print/ and covers TR2, TR3, TR3A, and TR3Bs.
TR4 print order is here: https://planbillustration.com/triumph-tr4tr4a-roadster-illustration-custom-order/ and covers TR4 and TR4As.

Lots of color and equipment options available for both models.

My print was under the tree Christmas morning! My wife had it framed and matted, and it is awesome! Thanks for the great work David. The pictures here on the website don't do your work justice. If anybody is on the fence about ordering, His work is well worth the money.

As promised, just a few short stories related to prints I sold just before the holidays. While I love drawing these cars, I never thought for a moment they would be anything other than some nice artwork. This holiday season showed me just how wrong I was.

1) A gift from friend—A gentleman who owns a Jaguar roadster is getting on in years, is no longer able to get and out of the car, and will be selling his lovely Jag because he simply can't drive it any longer. His good friend had me customize one of my illustrations to look exactly like the gent's roadster and presented it to him as a Christmas gift. While I know my art is not the real deal, still must be something to be able to look up on the wall and have remembrance of something so dear.

2) From a son to a father—A father had handed down the Jaguar coupe he purchased new to his son. For Christmas, the son had me option one of my illustrations exactly as the car had been delivered and gifted it to his father on Christmas. Now, I'm sure the son has thanked the father for his generosity on numerous occasions, but the illustration still must have come as a heart warming surprise.

3) From a son in remembrance of his father—This is my favorite vignette from Christmas. The story goes that the father bought his TR4 new in 1964/65 and drove it until 1980 when it was damaged in an accident then stored in the sons's garage where it remains, unrepaired. The gentleman's father passed away some time ago and the son had the TR4 illustration penned with the exact options present on the car when it was delivered. What a great way to remember both the car and the man.

I'm grateful to those who shared their stories with me (and am sure there were many more I didn't hear) and humbled that my art could be a small part of your celebrations. Thank you all.

Best Regards,

DCTownsend
