If you don’t know about Fritz’s work, you really should check out his website, fritzart.com, where he celebrates his fascination with speed on two wheels and four wheels. A personal favorite artist and inspiration for one of our own personal faves, custom helmet and clothing magnate Troy Lee, Fritz was born in San Fernando, California, and raised during the rodding and motorcycling’s first boom years of the 1960s and ’70s, Fritz relies on his vivid recollections of those cultures when creating his dramatic, impressionistic masterpieces. Each one represents a dramatic moment in time that captures a theme or even an entire era, just like “Banshee Scream” does.
Fritz has received numerous accolades for his work, including the prestigious Peter Helck Award (Best in Show) an unprecedented six-times at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
