Art & Inspiration --- Art Show ! ---

Didn´t see any so I´ll start one!

Well... Finally got my art section at the American car show in Helsinki up and going. Took some pics before the opening. Got the latest stripes done on my bike in the last minute , as always...

 

And a painting. Death valley. Acrylics on canvas.

 

wow, that bike and that painting are unreal!!!!awsome!

 

nice, i gotta flick my latest painting

 

Not HAMB material but I haven't played in a while so...

 

robin, quality work as always

 

Been a while since I've had anything to contribute, so here's an old ugly file cabinet I freshened up. Ink jet printed vinyl.

 

oldie ths week...

 

I did this the other night. After NHRA lost one of its brightest stars, I thought I would design a tribute shirt to give to the fuel racers, and the Force empire. In a perfect world, I will get them to the teams at next weekends race in Vegas.

RIP Eric Medlen.

 

HOLY SHIT COBY! That is really awesome! Great design for an even greater cause.

 

Here's part of a dash rail I recently did.

Done with one shot, of course.

 

Killer start to this weeks show... I'm bummed that I don't have anything to add.

Have to agree with ya breeder...that bike is awsome...

 

...part of the other side.
Out of focus and all.

 

F-in sweeet Tingler!

For future reference, what would something like that cost to have you do?

 

Me, mom & dad in the good ol' days.
'bout 30" by 10" I think.

 

Thats a stunning tribute.....

If your gonna get round selling them, put me down for one.

 

damn guys.... excellent.... I could dry-hump that bike, and I mean that as a compliment.
Tingler, as always

Here's a marker rendering of a skinny Roth in the "Outlaw" when it was first known as "The Excaliber". The other two are of a halloween costume I made for my son about 13 years ago. He's 23 now and I can remember him saying "dad; a hot rod for a costume?" He felt like a real hero when he got all the cheers when we participated in Halloween parades. It's still hanging on the wall in my garage, so I guess you can say I made my own hot rod once! Even if it was made of foam-core-board.

It weighs about 4 lbs... Built light for speed!

Some things I have done this past week plus an oldie, all done in Illustrator 10.

ps if the chic drawing is inappropriate I will remove it.

 

Nice work Tommy,
Here's a new M/C shirt design I did.

 

A small panel that is part of the stuff I am bringing to Dewey to pedal.

Back shot with gold glitter then shot again with purple. Interesting effect in the sun.

The other two are tat designs a young cat that works with my wife wanted me to work up. Would really like some feedback on these from those that do it for a living. I took a pic of his leg so I can do a lot more fo rhim to choose from. Just like some input, he is, after all, going to be wearing whatever he chooses for a long time. His name is already there, he wanted some striping around it.

Great show so far everyone.

Great show so far! Hey Bill Drake!Nice to see you posting again.
Here's a few things I don't think I've posted before but with my memory(or lack thereof)you never know.

A piece I picked up awhile ago at a secondhand store:A cooler with an AM/FM radio built into it.Either battery or house current.What everyone REALLY needs.

A couple of panelsne in progress;a thank you panel to the guy who donated the neat can opener/closer tools for the panel jam.

Another panel for Kris Johnson at Pinstriping and Kustom Graphics;a great new mag out of the UK.Just got my copy the other day.

A back window I just did for one of my regular customers for a lowrider Cadillac.Don't ask.

A couple of proposals for the junior dragster that is coming in the shop tomorrow.Still haven't decided which one I'm going with yet.

 

all I got pics of this week is Big Rig lettering.....no rods...
