Friday art

[whodaky]

This site is all very new to me. I made my intros last week and having been reading and looking at everything on here. It really is an amazing site, with some very talented people.
I thought I would like to contribute some of my striping. I recently did a number of christmas cards for family and friends, putting a 'Who Daky' (that is what I sign my work and what my stripng designs are called by people that know of me and my work!) on each card in the form of a face. I called them the faces of santa's helpers. Did 24 cards but will only post a couple here today! http://photo.starblvd.net/~whodaky/2-1-3.jpg http://photo.starblvd.net/~whodaky/2-2-1.jpg

Really cool kat, lets see some more.

OK a couple more Jester. One is very very abstract. Well I mean more so than any pinstriped design, as I beleive all pinstripe designs are very much abstract! I call my style '50s hot rod. Although over the years I have developed many styles that are I believe a little removed from my main style of ''50's hot rod' My main influence is the late Von Dutch. I will never be as eccentric as he was but I am not as talented as he. I believe he was a true genius and eccentricity is just part of the make up of brilliance in general. http://photo.starblvd.net/~whodaky/2-2-4.jpg http://photo.starblvd.net/~whodaky/2-2-2.jpg
