Art & Inspiration >>>>>Friday Art Show 07-24-2020<<<<<

@Jigger(Mark) designed my new shop logo and came through again by working up a clock face for an old Miller neon bar clock I snagged at a swap meet. Marks good friend Hank then handled the transfer print on to a rigid surface for my brand new clock. Thanks Mark and Hank!

Should I rush your rush job or the rush job I was rushing when you rushed in? View attachment 4764665

 

Posted these last week on the "Keep it Sketchy" thread.
Virtually NONE of my early artwork survived several "family moves" but I just recently found a few.

These 2 from about 9th grade.

A photocopy of a color drawing I did for Mother's Day. My Dad had bought my Mom a new '66 Bronco, but she preferred to drive her old pink & black '55 Ford convert. She and "Crink" the dog would to town once a week (Fridays) for groceries and hair styling.

(A little water-damaged.)
4 years later, same car...and it appears I finally figured out a more "Robert Williams's (the Master) style" of drawing tires and rims !!!


A "Banger" from some time in high school

 

awesome road racing Caddy, those roaring 331 ci babies were hot rods.

 

What a bunch of great stuff, thanx gang. My art fix has been satisfied!

 

Here's you weekly dose of SpeedWeek:

 

I like it.

As an aside, In the early '90s I took that '55 Ford Convert to Hershey and sold it for my parents. I had the original invoice ($2,509) and priced it at $12,509...and it sold.

30+ years of use, and a $10,000 profit !!! My parents were amazed. Ol' Pink & Black served our family well

Last I knew it was in Vermont and had received a full "frame off" rotisserie restoration

 

A few black and whites.

It was my honor Rusty! (Sorry I didn't get to see you last Friday but we didn't drive through Colorado Springs until around 9pm and we still had to trek up to Cheyenne for the night.)
Thanks to all the likers!

Here is the logo art and the clock face for the record...I'd planned to post it first but I'm glad Rusty took the initiative... Also, for the record, to those who prefer Corvettes not populate the HAMB, for reasonable reasons which I respect,
this particular car was not a 'Vette at all to Rusty's father. It was his 'shop truck' from day one back when he bought it new. Many a hot rodder has passed through the doors of the Speedometer Shop over the decades so it seems worthy of the seal of approval here on the JJ...

 

You’re not late you’re just early for next week.

Just clowning around a bit.

 

...interesting show this week, here's an IH panel...

 

"Rojo Robo's Cool Ride"

 

Hi guys! This is my first post here, I have followed them for years and I am fascinated by the great artists that are here. I leave you something I was working on. Greetings from Argentina

 

A little NOS here

 

Animal, you might be just a tad partial to them... ya think? They do have some super cool lines harking from the "jet age". I dig 'em too, my friend...

 

...In celebration of Comets (Neowise) here's an inspiration I did for @rusty rocket who is still fine tuning his Evolving single seat Racer/Hotrod...

I agree!

Just got this a couple days ago from my buddy B-Scott featuring my brothers (just Matt) 54 Chevy.

 

I'd really like to see more of "Little Skipper"

 

Now that's really "ART", should give Rusty inspiration!

 

sorry story, but I’m afraid when it gets painted this next winter it’s just going to be boring ole maroon with An ivory Number on the tail.
