Description
This is my portrait of the late racing legend, Dale Earnhardt.My son was a huge fan of his, and was devastated when he learned of his death.
I hope I've done him justice.

That is a fantastic picture! Beautiful detail. Sadly though, you are mistaken with the sponsor of "God TV".
It is in fact GM Goodwrench, which is a company in the United States which sells car parts and car accesories. GM Goodwrench, not God TV, were his sponsor between 1988 to 2001.
Again though, beautiful tribute to The Intimidator.

Wow... truely amazing! I miss the legend myself... was a huge fan as well. I watched that race and it was most likely one of the closest times I've come to crying over someone I didn't know in person
Wonderful picture by the way His eyes are amazing...

You're welcome.
Well, as long as his obsession is healthy, crazy can be good too.
