Kick Gas graphixx was the product of Lauren's artsy ideas and Team Besecker's
budget saving needs. In 2004, Lauren designed and painted all of the graphics on the 2
bodies that were run on Kevin's car. She also did the artwork and painting on his
helmets.
After several people suggested, Lauren started designing racing themed items to sell
on eBay. Everything from furniture to candle holders and switch plates were hand
painted and sold .
The latest addition to Kick Gas graphixx collection are hand made sprint car
ornaments. These were originally designed to give as gifts, but after receiving many
requests, they have now been made available for order by interested teams and fans.
Each ornament is hand painted with extraordinary detail. Each ornament is one of a
kind, with no two ever being the same. Detailed color depth, special finishes and
intricate detailing is present, though hard to see in photographs. Ornaments are made
from scratch from raw balsa wood which Kevin cuts out and Lauren paints. Each
ornament takes upwards of 5 hours from start to finish to create.
Though these were intended as ornaments, the custom made cars can be used year
round as they are not seasonal in their design and could be hung in a window, on a
bookshelf or otherwise decoratively. Wing, non-wing and vintage designs are available
currently. Lauren intends to include tracks and other classes of race cars in months
to come.
Christmas themed ornaments are $8.00 each while custom specific driver cars are
$12.00 a piece. Larger designs suitable for wall hangings are available and are priced
based on size and detail.
Below you will find samples of the ornaments. The sprint car is painted on the front
and then custom lettering is hand painted on the back. All are sold with a bow and
hanger unless otherwise specified. These photographs do not do these little beauties
justice!
