Art & Inspiration >>>> Friday Art Show 7/24/09 <<<<

haha I said the exact same thing in my head when I saw it too.

Gorgeous piece Ed!

 

Very sweet!!!! .......nice meeting you at the show I hope to run into you again in the future and I have to say I was glad I had the oppurtunity to see this one come to live.

 

You can almost HEAR this one!
If I had an applause smilie I'da put it here
By the way I think you are possessed...but that's a good thing

 

Nice stuff...thanks for sharing guys!

 

Awsome work everybody! My tanks are done i'll post next week.
Cheers

 

Thanks Guy's!!!
Here's what's on the old drawing board today.

"Sunburn" 35 Ford Cabriolet 22x13.5 Pencil On Board

 

I havn't posted much lately but I did get this painting done this week. First time I ever used lace in one of my paintings.

It's always good to check out the friday art show and check out some super artwork. Fine work this week also as usual.

I will be wandering around Billitproof TX this weekend though, so that will be good. Hope to meet up with some fellow HAMBers. I had planned on being a vendor but it just did not work out.

Wow...friggin' sweet Ed!
Love the motion in the bkgrnd.

I modified the framing I did on Hammett's '36, cause what I did before pretty much sucked.

 

Thanks AB. yes it's a photo I took at the Venice Car Show last weekend. Appreciate your comments .......

 

Revisiting the tables from last week. Here is 10 hours of accelerated oxidation in front of a Port-a-cool sprayed first with a rust accelerator. Will clear finish to kep it from rubbin off on the rich folks coffee mugs. Got asked a lot about the rust finish last week. And yes I can make it flaky. Syrup in water 50/50 will blacken in the sun and alter the oxidation in spots just like tree sap does. I have a piece that is a year old that looks worse than a Model A I used to have. Posted the rust not so much the tables...they're easy its the finish thats the work.

 

Wow!!! Man, some great work as usual!!!! Here are a few things I've been messing with. Our car club, The Kreatures, are making the trophy for "Best Hot Rod" at Billetproof Texas this weekend. The first photo is that trophy. The rest are shirts that I'm having printed to start my own apparel company called Dart Designs. Shirts should be ready soon. Enjoy!














Oh....and finally a finished version of the shirt we'll be selling for our car show...

 

Good stuff, everyone. Tillrock, you're on another planet, man. Clydsdale, congrats on the pub, man. I'm wanna be next in line! Sent Jesse one of my coloring books a couple weeks ago. You know he's gonna like it. Anyway, boys and squirrels, here's a couple random thoughts for this week...

decal design for the boys at CHOPCULT.com


Illustration for Blossom Racing Engines flagship engine block called...you guessed it, 'the Rhino.'


Vinyl wrap for Blossom's Jr Dragster

 

WEBBER! Beautiful! Eerily perfect.

 

Cool designs, APOC!!!

 

lol thats badass, i know that chick!!!! lol

 

BAWH! That's great stuff, Dart. Where are you going to have the tees available? Have your seen your printer's work? I'm a tee snob. With graphics as awesome as yours, they have to be done right. -APOC.

 

Thanks. I've seen his work before with one color stuff, but not full color. I'll have some test rags printed before final approval on the full color work. I appreciate the kind words. Eventually, I'll be setting up an online store for this stuff, plus selling them at car shows, along with prints of my art. Just trying to come up with the cash and time off work to hit the show circuit.

 

A couple more...

Identity for Jamieson Fabrications near Battle Creek, MI


Graphics for Cro Customs out of So. Cal.

 

That's excellent! Very correct!! You either had a damn good reference pic or THE REAL THING!!

Good job!

I LOVE MILLERS!

BTW...Ed, your stuff blows my little mind!!! Amazing!

 

Damn Ed, just when I think I'm getting better you post some more badass drawings, great job!!!

 

What he said.....awesome work again Ed...

 

That's some cool stuff you got, very neat!!

 

Here's a Fink that Joe Lockwood did for me last nite. The helmet I did in Alsa mirrachrome with candy green scallops. This is the first rat fink Joe has painted. Fact is this is the first Joe has ever painted with one shot and a real paint brush. He is such an incredable raw talent if he had some guidence from someone in the business..........

 

Awesome show this week!!!

Nothing new that I can show right now, but here are a couple oldies I did in college back circa 1993. These are both watercolor on 22x30 Arches 140# cold press. They were painted simultaneously (work on one while a layer is drying on the other).

 

A recent shoot from the Justice Brothers Museum.

 

i like flake

 

Slide, that is some amazing watercolor work. I never mastered that, so I'm impressed!!
Buick59, Cool shot! Love that lighting
Wolf, that's just sick! I dig the flake, too.

 

I got nothin' this week.

Killer striping yamadafacka.
