I used to do a lot of illustrations of F1 cars and 500cc motorbikes crashing.

However I've grown out of it now. But they were very dramatic paintings and sold well.

I feel quite ashamed

Needlessly. A dramatisation ain't the real thing. I would be more concerned about the people who bought them

As far as I know I didn't paint anyone dying

So they were not for gloaters.

Don't beat yourself up about it! Why is everyone so moralistic on here? You even drew me into it a while back! Heh. The fact is you can paint well enough to sell - that's brilliant. What do you paint these days? A smiling Jense might do well on eBay...whaddyathink?

Not a great deal at the moment!

I'm teaching Art and Design full time and that means my own art is on the back burner.
