L. Ralph Grabowski's strong and deliberately dramatic painting with multiple strobes creates a theatre of light, illuminating the color and excitement of Lionel trains in action.

His riveting photography echoes the 30s, 40s, and 50s.  L. Ralph's "Electric Images" carry you on a thrilling train ride

• from Art Deco to Vista-Dome,
• from steamliner to streamliner, and
• from the impact of industrial design on trains by Henry Dreyfuss and Raymond Loewy.

Unabashedly Photoshopped, L. Ralph's captivating portraits select and sculpt model trains up to a higher, artistic level.

A child's mind looks at electric model trains and imagines a Lionel empire. The human eye isolates and extracts an image out of real-life clutter.

Enjoy L. Ralph Grabowski's glorious art; his vision of the drama of electric model trains; his Lionel Empire.
