Heya gang! I haven't posted any new work in a while. The superheroes are keeping me too busy...

Latest commission. For a client's daughter's bedroom.

Enamel on riveted & weathered sheet metal – approx. 50" x 45".



I add one of these to every large piece I do, like these faux bomber panels:

 

My attempt at reproducing a Winfield sign...

 

A little more on topic this week. I used flat and gloss clear to help the illusion that it was an open faced helmet. I think this is one that will look much better when it is completely assembled.

 

Here are a few things I have pinstriped recently. The piggybank is on the way to the U.K. for a hamb member.


Finished a commission painting last week, can't show yet. Nate G.

Wicked start this week people. Great job to everyone. Here are three of the six hot rod posters that I am printing to take to the HAMB drags. Swing by my pop up and pick one up or just say hello next saturday. If there are any left after the HAMB drags and Greaserama I will probably post them up in the classified section (shameless art plug, I know).

They are all hand cut linoleum. I wish I had wood type this big to run on my letterpress but I don't. the linocutting for the 6 poster took about 20+ hours and I have about 10 hours into printing on these bad boys. I even played with a split fountain print on the larger word in the background so it has a cool gradation.

The suckers are 18 x 28 inches.

 

57 Corvette ~ Bob - Get well soon mate...love the images, they are top notch....

Bomonster - cool as usual

GaryC. & Spoggie - killer illustrations....love 'em both...

tulilanka - excellent photos...

lemorris - love your work....

Jimmy B - so very cool...

Lockwasher - wow, you got serious talent....

johnnyjalopy - too cool for words...

Slim Pickens - love those photos...

KCsledz - impressive!!!!

 

Here are my new business cards.
