Two artists whose work showcases motorcycles and motorcycling will be on hand at 2018 AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days, July 6-8, at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

Makoto Endo, a New York artist who travels to motorcycle shows and rallies and takes part in live solo painting performances, is attending for the second straight year.

And Atomic Dice Studio Arts is making its second visit to AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days.

“Each of these artists has a unique approach, but they both produce cool work that emphasizes the motorcycle lifestyle,” said AMA Chief Operations Officer Jeff Massey. “Bringing these two to AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days helps achieve our goal of providing something for everyone who is into motorcycles.”

A motorcyclist since the age of 16 and a professional artist, Endo began painting motorcycle art about seven years ago. His unique technique involves flinging India ink onto the canvas using chopsticks. With his focus solely on motorcycles, Endo said his main goal is to “paint the sound of the engine.”

Endo is seeking a patron to commission a work of art to be completed during AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days this year. He can be contacted at [email protected]. His website is www.makotoendo.net.

Also on hand this year is Atomic Dice Studio Arts.

Operated by Bob McElroy, Atomic Dice Studio Arts is an Ohio company that offers fine art, garage art, illustrations, logo design and lettering. Examples of his work can be found at www.facebook.com/atomicdice.

The event also features the AMA Vintage Grand Championship, which features road racing, motocross, hare scrambles and trials. And a round of the AMA Vintage Flat Track National Championship Series takes place at the nearby Ashland County Fairgrounds.
