Goodwood I

Size:25 x 28 in.

Sherree Valentine-Daines’ original painting Goodwood I, measuring 19" x 22", offers a dramatic and atmospheric portrayal of vintage motor racing, captured in her distinctive impressionistic style. Executed in monochrome, the work is a masterclass in light, tone and movement, evoking both the elegance and intensity of a bygone era. A fleet of classic race cars, engines roaring, surges forward in unison down a sunlit stretch of track, their blurred forms expressing speed and the passage of time. The lead vehicle dominates the composition, its gleaming curves rendered with soft brushstrokes that conjure the glint of light on polished metal.

This piece perfectly embodies Sherree’s ability to capture the spirit of iconic British events, in this case the legendary Goodwood Revival. Known as the UK’s foremost modern impressionist, she has built a celebrated career spanning more than three decades, creating timeless scenes that blend nostalgia with sophistication.

Valentine-Daines’ work has earned her widespread acclaim, gracing walls at the Tate, Barbican, and in private collections across the globe. Her reputation as both the people’s artist and a favourite among the elite stems from her rare talent for portraying not just the scene, but the emotion and atmosphere that surrounds it. Goodwood I is a compelling tribute to speed, heritage and grace.
