Cruiser Art

The cruiser is the long-haul silhouette: feet forward, bars back, a V-twin's lazy heartbeat and no particular hurry. It is the body language of an entire idea of riding - the horizon as destination - and it translates into art with enormous presence, all low lines and chrome catching late sun.

Cruisers are owned, not just ridden - named, dressed, kept for decades - so the print that belongs on a cruiser owner's wall is their own machine. The Paint Shop takes one photo and previews it free in eight styles: the oil-painting style gives a cruiser the warm, gallery treatment; the vintage poster style puts it on an open-road travel poster; heavy ink turns all that chrome into shape.

It also makes the definitive gift for a rider - their bike, painted, from £34 with UK delivery and VAT included. Kin styles worth a look: bobber, chopper, tourer.
