Description
Book SynopsisIconic portraits of greasers and gearheads, families and pinup girls, rockers and regular Joes capture the distinctive people and scene around hot rod and custom cars.
Trade Review"Brainard's hot rod portraits capture a sense of individualistic pride that runs deep in the culture and spans across ages, genders or stereotypes." * The Houston Chronicle *
"What you will learn from the book is what Brainard learned at the car shows—that a Texas hot rod event is probably the best place in the world for people watching." * Pro Photo Daily *
"From Brainard's portraits, it is evident that people themselves are like living works of art, externally embellished in expression and internally rich in history and meaning." * CNN *
"Every single one of Brainard's shots has an undeniable aura of authenticity. They stop time just long enough for you to get a better look at the men, women and children who live and breathe hot rods and custom cars." * Rodder's Journal *
