Art by Wallace A. Wyss
Wallace Alfred Wyss, though long known as an author in Ferrari circles (having contributed to Prancing Horse and Cavallino decades ago as well as having written two Ferrari books) didn't paint his first painting until 2007 when he needed to portray Shelby as he conducted a book signing in Beverly Hills. A publisher bought that first painting along with the book and that inspired Wyss to began reproducing his art, first working in watercolors and now exclusively in acrylic oils. Totally self taught, Wyss calls himself a "primitive" in the grand American tradition. Because he is so new to the art field, Wyss'has no set style as yet, with some of his Ferraris so detailed as to earn him the "super-realist" sobriquet, yet others can be described as "totally abstract." He is inspired by such stalwarts in the auto rendering field as Ken Dallison and Jay Koka. Although his main thrust is to market 22" x 30" giclees for $450, he has provided Albaco 12" x 18" (including white borders) reproductions of his work on watercolour paper to enable those new to collecting art to start their collection with something affordable that still qualifies, by virtue of the limited editions, hand signing, and quality (produced under his personal supervision) as fine art.
