About Us

What is CANVA5?
First and foremost, I'm a lover of motorsports for 30+ years.
Season One was an exclusive collection of iconic single seater racecars of the last 70 years, artworked in a classic 8-bit style. 
For Season Two we've collaborated with renowed illustrator Adi Gilbert to highlight some of favourite drivers and cars.

Why name it CANVA5?
A love of a famous Graham Hill quote and ol' Red 5 Nigel Mansell.

Who is CANVA5?
Hey I'm Rich Homer, and I'm the main force behind CANVA5. I'm a lifelong F1 fan, an ex young karter, and an ex-BMX rider/photographer who is turning his professional digital marketing and eCommerce career towards his motorsports passion.
Tenuous claim to fame, an 8 year old me raced against Jenson Button a few times. 

Why have you chosen these cars?
All of the cars chosen for the collections are either firm favourites of mine or represent cars that are regularly included on greatest of all time lists.
Personally, my favourite car of all time (alongside the Sauber Mercedes C9) is the 1991 Jordan 191, a car so simple and beautiful, it's hard not to love (in my
opinion!).

Others, such as the Ferrari 312T2 were not favourites previously but have massively grown on me since CANVA5 has started. 
I'm a lover of shapes, lines, silhouettes, NACA ducts, engines, noises, stories and technical innovation. I'd like to think all of the cars included tick some or all of those boxes.
I'd love to know what cars I've missed that are on your all time favourite lists - email me at customercare@canva5race.com or DM me on socials.
