This Women & Motorcycles print depicts a female rider on an Indian Chief, stopped to plan a destination on Route 66. The backdrop of the picture is of the Route 66 map the rider is looking at. Her uniform bears the same characteristics of the authentic Motor Maids uniforms. During this era, women made up only 10 percent of the motorcycle riders in the United States.

The original painting by Self Representing Artist (SRA), and owner of Wynn Art Studio, Michelle Wynn, was on display in Wheels Through Time museum (Maggie Valley, NC) as part of the museum's tribute to Women and Motorcycles from the years 1905 through 1955.  The originals were on display from May 2006 until May 2007; (a complete set of motorcycle prints were donated to the museum to add to their permanent collection).  After which, the originals were taken to Myrtle Beach Bike Week, where they were displayed as part of Wynn Art Studio's display.  Many people showed interest in the art, including several nationally acclaimed galleries and motorcycle related companies.  At the request of US Rider News, the originals were taken to Swainsboro, GA. as part of a "Motorcycle Art" exhibit, which included the works of 4 other well-known motorcycle artists.  Most recently, the originals were on display at Art in the Heart of Augusta GA.  The originals are now on display at various galleries (display schedule too lengthy to list) throughout the United States.

The artist, Michelle Wynn, is also one of the few female motorcycle artists that actually rides her own motorcycle.  She obtained her motorcycle drivers license in 2004, and has enjoyed riding as part of her daily life-style.

Why is Sizing so Important? Michelle's artwork is completed in standard sizes so you can mount it in a standard sized frame. There's no need to take this lithograph print to a professional framer, when you can go to any Arts & Crafts retail stores, and pick up a 22in x 28in frame that suits your taste. We purchased a variety of standard sized frames for the International Women's Conference in Athens, GA, and the customers really complimented our displays and the way the printed mat borders look. Why pay for someone to build you an odd sized frame and mat for the art when the artist has taken into consideration the additional expenses of this feat; You can frame this art yourself; OR, at least you'll save if you decide to have a professional frame this art for you
