Please can anyone help me. I'm looking for the name of the artist (I think it begins with an 'E') who has a stand in the main part of the Village. He's been there for the last 3 years i've been. I'm looking to buy a original / print as a gift for a friend, so time is short and would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance. Tim.  |

It doesn't begin with E but we have a number of prints from Francois Bruere who is I think the ACO's official artist. He specialises in a type of sepia with flashes of colour. There are some pictures here http://www.autotrend.com/franall.html he has his own website but I can't find it. |

We've got seven on our living room walls (makes it sound big but it isn't!) and one more rolled up awaiting a trip to a race meeting to get a certain bearded Frenchman's signature on it!

Thanks for the reply everyone so far, although he is the official artist, the guy i'm thinking of isn't Francois Bruere, I have one of his already, Ferarri P4!!! The guy's stand this year the lads reckon (who can't remember his name either!!!) was down from the Grand Marnier stand. He also had a book of all his work on display?!?!?! If that helps??
Thanks
Tim.

this might all sound a bit too obvious, BUT, if you know he was a few stands from the crepe shop, can you not look in the ACO village map and get his name from that? Or is that too simple?
