Considered one of the luminaries in automobile art. His ability to depict dramatic action scenes defining great moments in motor racing history has become legendary. Watts hails from England, and following a period with the Royal Air Force in his younger years, he studied art before becoming a full-time professional artist. He has gallery showings annually at the Monaco Grand Prix, Monterey Historics, Goodwood Revival, plus the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale and Las Vegas events.
