Art & Inspiration >>>>>>>friday Art Show!!!<<<<<<<<

I hope nobody minds me digging this up so late. I posted a painting earlier in the show but I was not happy with it.
With much re-painting this, I am happy with. On to the next one.
I could not deal with the green.
Check my earlier post to see the changes.

Good art supply stores will have Transfer Paper,
usually white and dark gray.

Tape one long edge of you art work to the surface.
That way you can flip it up and down to check your progress,without losing the location.
Slide the Transfer Paper under you artwork,and trace away.

BUT

Make sure you have the Transfer Paper right side up !


I borrowed a projector once.Wasn't a high dollar piece.
Disappointing.Didn't buy my own.

 

Here's a very small smattering of artwork auctioned off at the Chicago Brushmasters charity art auction held last weekend at the Chicago WoW. All hand painted with trusty 1Shot.

Enjoy!

One more
for the stack of stuff.
Another Bic pen sketch.
This one shows hubless wheels,
cantilevered front suspension,
a transverse mid engine and 34 Ford
body on steroids.

 

"Wasko",

There are 2 more methods I can think of… 1) Something called a "Pouncing Wheel" (or even just a thick strait pin… like a hat pin) available @ sign supply shops or your better art supply stores. Works great unless there is too much detail. Copy your sketch on a black & white copier to size. Then run the wheel around to trace over your lines. It will punch a bunch of wholes in the copy. If the whole closes up the flip it over and hit it lightly with fine sandpaper to open them up a lil'. Then get an old sock (0ne that is porous). Run down to your local hard ware and pick up squeeze bottle of chalk dust for use w/chalk lines. I get a round Oat Meal box, stretch the mouth of the sock over it then squeeze a bunch of chalk dust into it. Place your copy over the final surface tape it down. Then pat it with the old sock (otherwise known as a "Pouncing Bag") then carefully lift the copy straight off and there should be chalk dots left behind (don't sneeze!). Then Quickly re-sketch your design on the new surface, taking care not to rub off the chalk. Then I hit it w/compressed air to blow off the excess chalk… but you might not have that option. This is also a great way to transfer a flame design from one side of a car to the other.

2) You can make your own "Carbon Paper"… Take a sheet of Tracing Paper and a "Graphite Stick". Rub the back of the Tracing Paper in ever direction (like doing cross-hatching). Then take a Kleenex squirt some rubber cement thinner on it and lightly burnish the graphite w/it to smooth it out. Then you have greaseless Carbon Paper.

Finally here is my last minuet entry into the H.A.M.B. Art Challenge #5…

 

I keep forgetting to say this… GaryC. your stuff rocks!

Norwell… I love it when guys post their old stuff too! Thanks!

 

I did a Pounce Pattern how to thread here a couple years ago.
Should be in the archives. Search for Pounce.

MUCH quicker than using transfer paper,
but you might find you lose some detail.

 

Hey Cool! Thanks! I'll look for it… always interested in learning more…

 

Sinister,is this the one you mean?
