Art & Inspiration ///////very Early Friday Art Show 9-14-07\\\\\\\

DOES ANYONE OBJECT TO AN EARLY START?
I may not get another chance before the week end so...

I had nothing for this week so I took 3 unrelated pieces and related them...The car is an early Photoshop rendering, the back ground is Photoshop messing around with filters and brushes and the guy in the f.g is from a book I illustrated. The guy and the car started as pencil sketches which were scanned in and colored w/ the Photoshop...

 

I gotta leave early tomorrow and I got a shitload of pics this week so....these are a pair of "aged " signs I painted for a Divco collector

 

...a neat old truck with some "aged" lettering I did last month..

 

....his daughter's pickup...she built it herself !

 

Rollie. You´re THE pinstriper...

Here´s some old art, from a couple of years back.

Here's one I finished up yesterday. This was one of those paintings you do
that do not seem to be going right, so you put them away for a while to continue later.
Well I started this painting probably 3 yrs ago. Finally done.

Might go back and clean some edges up a bit.

Shoooooot - EARLY !?!


I was waiting all day YESTERDAY for someone to post up something.

I simply can't wait for Fridays man....I love these shows.


Janne - you are the inspiration for my next piece. (Well you AND Surf Monkey).

Can't wait to post it up. Think of it as a cross between your two styles.

 

Not too much new stuff this week....Till Billetproof! this weekend anyway......So here's some 2004 stuff....

"That" Caddy

Janne, LowCab, always a proveledge to see your work, thanks.
Broman, let's see it, man...
A32Flathead, great pics. I love the Chrysler, and the Ford's da BOMB!
Zumo, fun stuff. Cool web sight to... what program do you work with?

 

Been cleaning up Moms house getting ready for the estate sale and brought this home.

Not a car thing, but petrol related.

I used to dabble with metal scupture (junk art) so in the 70's, during the oil boom, petroleum decor was the rage. Dad always wanted one of the oil well scuptures in the stores at the time but wouldn't pay the $100+ they wanted for them so I made him this one for Christmas that year.

Great show so far, but then isn't it always!

GV

PS: this is what we use in Oklahoma to suck dead dinosaurs out of the ground so you can drive you hot rods. Your welcome!

 

Still working on it man....

I'm no pro - I just dabble.

Dabbling takes a long time

 

Great stuff everyone; Keep it coming!
Some of you might recognize the '36 Ford that I've depicted in my latest cartoon: I think that roadster looks so-o-o-o-o-o killer!

 

Getting stuff ready for the Rockabilly Rod Reunion in Vegas next month.

robin b, i love the lighting on that piece.
janne, as always, i love your stuff.
lowcab, dig it.
zumo, very cool.

nice stuff kids... too bad I've failed to get shots of the last few things I've done. Keep them coming, it's almost Friday!

 

I'm with BROMAN I can't wait to see what you guys come up with.
Some awesome artwork.

 

BLOODY HELL!!!!!....i`ve been struggling with colored pencils all week and thought i was getting somewhere and then you go and post that ......back to the drawing board.....literally!

monkey

 

A work in progress that I'm not sure what I'm going to do with, but I think there's an opaque projector in my future.

 

...Dutch ...that 36 is one of the NEATEST toons I've ever seen !! Damn ,I wish I could draw like you guys !

 

Thanks for getting it rolling this week Jigger. Nice 57! Zombie, shit thats a nice 54! Heres what I got , might have another, maybe tomorrow. A 50 Chevy with a Mercury grille shell, rolled pans. Get some 50 Pontiac bumper tips for bumpers. Use some pointy tip bumper guards, 40 Pontiac comes to mind, and cut them off to look like teeth. Use them in the grille. Scoop the headlights and the quarters, I should of put teeth in the headlight scoops , in to much of a hurry. Lincoln hubcaps.Black interior with cream piping. Oh yea, cut all the rust out and radius the rear wheel openings at the same time!It would take balls to do that! Prismicolor and ink. Also put the uncolored version and original sketch on too.

 

For the one I posted I used Illustrator. I also use Photoshop, Dreamweaver and Flash for other area of my work.

 

i'm trying to get this painting finished, but there are so many distractions...



Another shot from the same day:

 

Damn Coop...You are truely suffering for your art

nothin' new from me this week, so here's a blast from the past and a flyer for the Ghost Cruise, that everyone should try and make...We need donations for the raffle too...

 

I just recieved this today. An early work of mine, Like 1968 !!! somebody found ORIGINAL negitives in an old box in an attic, of the FIRST dragster I ever lettered. Like I just took a Time Machine trip .All hand lettered with good old One Shot. Lost what ever I had of this, almost 30 years ago and thought I'd never see It again. It's the Shottgun Express AA/GD out of Paterson,N.Y. Powered by Big Block Chev. Ran 200 flat at 7.52 on pump gas(Sunoco)in '68 . Woody Gilmore Chassis, Paint By George Cerny and Lettered by the Weird one.Also got 15 cd's with over 100 shots on each of Dover Dragstrip . Will take days to look through.
