Hello Drea!~ Welcome from Alberta Canada. I was 17, starting first year learning autobody in 1962. I worked at a dealership,drove lots of falcons like yours.Cool car! I too am an artist. Please wear your mask working and painting. I am waiting for a double lung transplant because nobody wore masks much back then. Show us your smarter. Great to see your work. All good stuff!

Hi Maria, There are some super cool cars in Finland ! `Gotta love them. Tell me are the Dudesons as popular there as they are here ? I have not figured out just why, but I watch them every week end. All the best from Alberta Canada.

Thankyou all for the lovely welcome. I'm stoked about the nice comments regarding my art. Haha the battle of to paint the falcon or no continues. Haha. Much like in real life.

I must check out this ladies of the HAMB bit.

Sorry to hear about your lungs You'll be happy to hear I've been taught well, I only buy the high quality Gamblin oil paints and I use an odourless mineral spirit that is safe to use without a mask and won't absorb through unbroken skin.

I have a 1962 two door falcon that came to me with a nice California patina that people seem to get a kick out of it. It's cool and all, but I'd like to paint it one day, much to many people's horror!

Apart from cars I'm heavily into art. Needless to say I've painted a few cars!

Looking forward to meeting you all.
was your Falcon at Garterbelts at Mt Tamborine few weeks ago ??
if not, was another with similar patina - very cool

Yes indeed it was! And it had a bike crammed into the back, depending on when you saw it.

No I didn't unfortunately, I didn't have anything suitable to submit at the time.

I will definitely have some works up at Greazefest though. I enter something every year. The Falcon will be there too with my girlfriend's Falcons.

look forward to seeing your artwork there.
Garterbelts and the Greazefest are both "must do" events on the QLD calendar
