Patrick Kelley is an author with a fascination for all things automotive. Years ago he expanded this passion and started collecting original automobile concept art. These are drawings and paintings of what future automobiles might look like. He decided that these designs, which came out of art schools across America, and the ‘Big Three’ automotive manufacturing companies, had to be shared. Today he shares his new book, Imagine Too! Towards the Future, published by Dalton Watson Fine Books. It takes the reader back to a time when the sky was the limit, dreams and visions were encouraged, and restrictions were few. With over 600 never-before-seen automobile concept images and over 130 artists, Patrick’s new book is a wonderful companion to his earlier IMAGINE! title.
