Paul Oz’s work with Lando Norris captures the young McLaren driver’s infectious charisma and lightning-fast talent in vibrant, three-dimensional canvases that pulse with the energy of Formula One’s new era. His Lando-inspired pieces, born from live painting sessions at races like Silverstone, translate Norris’s audacious overtakes and cheeky grid-walk swagger into bold impasto strokes of papaya and blue, evoking the roar of McLaren’s V6 hybrid slicing through corners. Oz’s textured layers, often infused with carbon fibre-like finishes, mirror the sleek engineering of Norris’s cars while channeling the Bristol-born star’s relentless drive and playful spirit, making each artwork a vivid tribute to his rise as a fan favorite.
What sets Oz’s Norris collection apart is his knack for bottling the driver’s unique blend of grit and charm. Drawing from moments like Lando’s breakout performances, Oz layers thick paint to mimic the grip of slicks on asphalt, with metallic accents that gleam like Norris’s helmet under floodlights. His process—often sketching trackside amid the roar of engines—captures the raw adrenaline of McLaren’s resurgence, reflecting Lando’s journey from underdog to podium contender. For collectors, these works offer signed prints starting at around £445, with hand-embellished canvases from £1,295, each piece a testament to Norris’s role in rekindling McLaren’s fire.
