.................................................................................


I found another box with a bunch of old art in it.. mostly concept drawings.. not a lot of traditional stuff but it pays the bills!

(These are digital pics of, 11x17 cheap color copies of the originals, that have had a hard life!! .. so, kinda poor quality)

Most everything isfrom back in 02' or 03'
Enjoy.





















And one I did this week...




Enjoy your freedom... Shake every soldiers hand that you see and THANK THEM!!!

I haven't had time to post anything for quite some time, but I was recently laid off so I have got a couple of extra minutes in my days now. I worked as an airbrush artist for the last 9 1/2 years. these were hanging around the office of the shop I worked for the last year or so. hope you like.

 

these three have been hanging around the house for a while. the last is a w.i.p.

Man there are some heavy hitters already showing up this week! Looks Great.

I dug out my old helmet and decided to paint it like the tub before MOKAN.

Stripes down the center and 1960s drag class on the side based on weight and c.i. displacement. My lettering skills suck but hey, at least it aint vinyl stick ons. lol

OH, And Happy and Safe 4th to everyone.

Great start fellas! Here's a kid's shirt I finished recently for Firebird Raceway of Boise, Idaho: Kids Rule!

I have prepared a cool black/white Coloring-Page of same artwork as well: Download the JPG from here and make a printout yourself. The print-size is US-Letter.

That should keep the little rascals busy for at least a little while

Rollie, your shit is tight as always.
Mighty, love the bike. nice clean and simple.
I will be posting picks of my newly acquired 1956 Bel Air moordoor soon. I pick it up tomorrow.






On the pickup, I did the striping and the tailgate. Forgot to take a pic of the dash. Someone else did the doors.

I always wanted to draw it.

Here's a red, white and blue special
for Independence Day!
The Ray Brown lakester, circa 1950.

Happy 4th of July everyone. Drive safely.

 

Damm....those are amazing

 

Hey I finally did something ....that I got on camera...of course I need to get better resolution but WTF you'll get the idea. Well....I just looked at the pics and they suck...I really need a better camera!.....The scratches all over the honda hood came courtesy of some punk effin kids last weekend....they threw a retaining wall brick through my windshield and it bounced and slid down the hood!

 

Some new cyanotypes. I usually just mount em, frame em and put them in gallery shows or sell them as is. But my plan with this bunch is that I wanna go back in and use the imagery as a background, and paint some cool rods on top of them using gouache, etc. Someday.....

 

Kudos to you! Now those are slick! I like
