Art & Inspiration ---Friday Art Show 11-18-2011---

Here are a couple of new ones.

 

Scary part is that that is a rendering for a customer of his car that he drives around Toronto.

One more this week. My daughter did this ink and watercolor illustration of my Squareback for my birthday.



Thanks Maggie!

 

Really nice stuff guys!

New rough sketch for a series i'm starting.

 

Great start to the show!
Love those bikes Josh!
Chris-I hope that will be on a t-shirt!

This one I call "Thin black Line" Actual size 11 x 17.

 

My God, only two pages and the stuff is off the hook, man, Chad the logo is tops in sweet simplicity, home boy Jigger's road gobbler is to fun as we approach Thanksgiving, Bo, I knew that was Jack Rudys pickup before I saw it ID'd, way cool. Everything is top drawer in the posts and I love it all, just to lazy to give all individual perks. Keep it rollin magic makers! ~sololobo~

 

Great showing soo far folks! My eyeballs are HAPPY!!!!

 

Wow, another great start to a great show. Makes me kind of glad I don't have anything this week. It would so pail in comparison.
Great stuff Lowcab. I really like seeing the texture of real pencil on real paper.
Another cool piece by GaryC.
Scooter's stuff amazes as usual.
Very cool bike Jdustu. How big is that bike?

Nice logo Chadd.
Slick 'Bugnotti'.
While I really like the car, i also like the background on your pic Corvette Bob.
Very cool truck 40ford. Just for the record, he should chop it.
Cool pair of deuces Hotrod32.
I love the scratchboard Bon Monster. Great stuff as always.
Nice job on the helmet Kuston lines!
Great Caddy Janne. I aways love your style.
Like the night shots Tulilanka.

Amazing piece striper. You should brush on canvas more often.
Love the oils Dankyd. Thats cool you can get them done so fast and look so good.
Very nice surf monkey. I know how hard it gets to find time to draw. How big are those?
I love the bug jaransont3! Very cool! It looks like your daughter is learning well from you. Nice water color.
Great job on the 330 Jigger! Not sure what itt is about those cars. It kind of reminds me of a wagon version I did a while back.
Wild stuff Britt! Not sure why it took a while to pop up. I almost didn't see them.
Thats goin to be cool Dart165! Cant wait to see how it progresses.

I've got a couple other things, but they're too new of cars for here.

I have updated my website for anyone who cares to check it out. Lots of new stuff on there...logos, renderings, shirts, merch, etc. And 'like' me on FB or follow me on Twitter if you want to keep updated with me.

I really like this style. excellent presentation.

 

I cannot tell you how much I look forward to this thread every Friday. What incredible talent in so many different media.

"Haven't painted in 25 years" and your photography is not so good!!?? Great talent and do not wait another 25 years. That would be such a waste.

Thanks everyone for the pure entertainment of the Friday Art Show.

 

wow this really something. monochromatic palettes are so expressive and rich i think
