Title: "Camo"

48"w x 20", acrylic on canvas
Private collection

Concept is based on a wonderful Bugatti Type 35 at the 2023 RetroMobile show in Paris France. Jay Koka: "I take no credit for the car's attractive and interesting paint job which I present here -but with minor detail and color variations necessary to fit my concept. My immediate reaction to the car (other than the wonder of a Type 35) was the idea that the paint graphics could make it "disappear"... An interesting and very different new work.

A key landmark in the city, it features a stunning glass roof. Fitted with a 160bhp 3557cc inline six-cylinder engine the 135 S was exceptionally fast for its day. Among other successes, this car won its class at the 1936 24 Hours of Spa in the hands of its owner-driver Rene Le Begue.

What if Thomson had lived to see the Rolls and decided to create a work based on this beautiful car? Jay Koka: "I could only hope for and strive to attain his talent... but... here's my attempt."

This work features a classic 1940 19' Chris Craft Barrelback Runabout in a somewhat exciting moment. The steamship passengers watch on with great interest to see what route she will take... The setting is the Gravenhurst Ontario harbor with one of its iconic steamships... the 130 year old historic steamship R.M.S. Segwun. Built in 1887, Segwun is North America's oldest operating steamship and was originally designated a Royal Mail Ship.
