Art & Inspiration (((((((((Friday Art Show 1st of June)))))))))

´58 Chevy Impala, Illustration of existing car:

 

Here we go. This one I started in 06 and finally got ready for this springs exhibitions... Sometimes the right inspiration and creativity seems like miles away.

Full throttle- Acrylics on canvas 35 x 43 inches.
Interested?

 

My favorite Paso shot, made Black & White & then colored using a free photo editing package!

 

More images from my Eastern Oregon trip










technique stolen from lost america on this one

 

Here's some lines I laid down this past weekend.

 

Here is a mild low key custom by Mitch. I think it is chevy but it could be an olds. He tried to make metalflake using just colored pencils. He really pulled this one off with smooth, shaved look. He has a bunch of goodies in the works for the upcoming Friday art shows.

 

Robin, that painting is the POOP!!
Janne killer as always, love it.
Here is the final for that Poncho wagon I have been working on for a friend. Traded it for a killer 56 Olds air cleaner for my 56 Chev.

Here's some striping I did on the back of an "A "racer....can't wait to see it all together ! Then there's stripes on the back of a 38 Ford, and a couple of more pics of the 'aged' stripes & lettering I did on 'Rumble Customs ' truck.

 

Drunkwolf..

and a Cat.

 

then I stopped on the way home from the Autowonderland show and striped & lettered this 1919 White fuel truck. It's not finished yet, gotta go back & do the wheels,something on the little guy's chalkboard,& big boxes that go on the sides...should look nice when it's finished !

 

Hey Rollie: Great work, looks like you killed a few more squirrels pulling those great lines.....For those who don't know, as I didn't, the brushes are made of squirrel hair..... The drag car will be running in a couple of weeks, I hope. Talk to you soon Rollie.....

 

A couple that are headed for Billetproof on Saturday:

An AM/FM Cassette radio in the shpe of a 57 Chevy.

An old yarn box converted for a paint box.

 

GREAT stuff this week, boys. I just cracked out my striping brushes for the first time in a few months. Suffice to say... nothing worth posting here (aka: geez, I suck).

I hope to pick up some pointers at Billetproof this weekend.

 

A couple of new things I did this week.
Done in Illustrator and Photoshop.

 

Janne, your stuff beats allcomers every week. Great stuff once again.

 

Robin B.
HOLY cow. NICE STUFF! My eyeballs just got a beatin.

Here's some stuff from me. I gotta break out the big guns to keep up with that. DANG, that's a hard act to follow.

 

Amazing show this week. Look forward to it every week. Heres my contributions. Just been playing around on my own stuff.

 

Once again I added more shirts to my growing inventory of kustom shirts

I got a new shirt with my hopefully soon to be back on the road watson style 59 Buick. (No stealing my paint job now.)

I've got some things for this week.

Deuce 's High is in it's infancy (to be continued...)
But first, a few, "Man, do I really have to work today?!!" sketches.

1.) a dream car I call, 'WHAT?' ( or "Gee, my head is hot!") This might be the
predecessor to Luke Skywalker's Land Speeder, I duh, know.



2.) little thumbnails, each under 2" wide:



..and finally, "Deuce 's High!"

 

Shit Tingler. Big words comin from you.
Inspiring.

 

I got a new background pic, Thanks Janne! Excellent work, as usual.

 

Man, I love your photos of old junk cars. Got any more?
