Art & Inspiration ////////How-bou-dah Friday Art Show?\\\\\\\\

Have I ever Posted these various ramblings?

One that's ready for color:



One, not so ready for anything, doodle-sketch:



... and one doodled 'not rod' thumbnail or two:

 

Dang, Jigger. I can't even tell what day it is so you've now rooted me solidly in Thursday. I've got to get home and get some shots of my boys' work.

 

Looks like that chick ain't wearin' a bra!?!?! hahaha.....nice stuff as usual Jigger!

Some stripes from Mother's Day.....mom's PT.

 

That happened to me the other day. I've been out of work a while and the days began to meld together. It was like being thrown into deep water at night. Very disorienting.

 

Just got these candles cast from my original sculpt that I made for my shifter knobs...I figure after this it's needlepoint and scrapbooking!

 

That's a way cool candle man......my wife would go crazy for these.....scented????

 

Cool sketches Jigger! My brother bought a 1964 Australian army issue land rover (R hand drive) when he was visiting friends down under. He had it shipped to him this past winter. He started on the rebuild, but got called back to Iraq. I can't wait to see it running again.

 

damn that candle is tits

 

A logo I did this weekend for a fellow HAMBr

 

Thanks guys...and yes hahahah....they are cinnamon scented.....
(grabbing knitting needles)

 

a concept drawing i did for a local guy...


the finished product... (my dad trimmed it, in leather)

 

Gee that's nice. I love the cycle fenders. Would love to see the bonnet cover, too, like in your concept.

 

Been awhile since I posted on the show, but smeared a little paint on a friends pit cruiser bike.

Not sure if pinewood derby cars are art but this is my entry for an up coming local show. Going for a lakes roadster look, paint is wet in this pic. I will post finished picture next week.

 

I'm not into needlepoint BUT I'll be your scrapbook buddy. We could share ideas and stuff.

Enjoying the artshow guys, thanks.

 

thanks jigger.
yeah, we got pretty strict fender laws here. sucks ass.
i did his carshow display stuff too. (build specs, thankyous etc.)

 

Clysdale... thats right up my alley...like the Dia Del Los Muertos skull!

 

Yeah, my wife would like this candle. Any marketing plans?

My contribution this week;

 

Here is a triptic i did for one of my art shows. I took a photo of this car at the Roundup.

"Patina" - (3) 30" x 15" - oil and acrylic on canvas

 

thanks guys...candles are now done...the first run of 10 are finished and ready to roll...25 bucks each...and you can get them online here....Just click the little box above the skull for the paypal link....

I also will have resin shift knobs of the same design done soon also.

 

Great looking start to a show here fellas!

I was contracted for a product packaging design by Ms. Metal (Amy) She produces metal-flake shift knobs in various colors and wanted to produce a single cool yet functional label for a 1 pint can to place these in. It had to be simple in color restrictions to keep the cost down, but simple doesn't mean plain or boring right?



Here it is flattened out:



Originally it was going to be more distressed and in full color so I played with more textures in the actual word "metal-flake". The end product didn't have it in there, but I still wanted to show it off since I did the work:



More next week.

 

Started a new painting:



and just got prototypes for some custom guitar pickguards, milled from T-6061 aluminum:

 

Coop looks like that cigar is right up your ass lol

 

Hey Coop, love the new painting are there going to be any other elements or just the classic smokin devil? Also, are the pickguards only for Telescasters or are there going to be others for Strats and when will they be available? Thx, Tiki

 

ooh, I hope so!

 

Yeah, this is just the underpainting, the final piece will be many more layers of stuff.

We will be doing lotsa different guitars, these are just the first to get prototyped. I forgot to photograph the precision bass pickguards...

 

Rock on man, I've got a white Strat that one of those will look great on. How soon will they be available ?
Tiki

 

Working on it now!!

 

awesome stuff Coop! love the pickguards!

 

Coop I new you get a laugh out of that.Is Fender putting out the pickguards or are you?
And if you do a Strat one keep us posted.................

 

The talent on this board never ceases to impress me!

Thanks for letting me play!
