Untitled (Car), 2004, Tom McGrath
The winter issue of The Paris Review features some glorious paintings of Tom McGrath: Portfolio
McGrath's paintings try to capture images from the viewpoint of a car seat. I loved the one in TPR where the wiper is just about to move and wipe away the rain water (see Portolfio link above.)
More paintings at the Sue Scott Gallery
Definitely an artist to keep a tab on.
