The six paintings in this collection depict cars in various settings, from daily commutes to road trips and laps around race tracks. Each painting also draws parallels with personal experiences, such as rediscovering old hobbies or taking alternative paths in life.

Odin Larsen, as Guidarto, continues to engage audiences around the world with his automotive art. His collection, "Revived Rarities," stands as a testament to his artistic skills and unique perspective in the contemporary art world.
