Art & Inspiration GNRS Friday Art show.....

AS ALWAYS!!!! KICK AZZ thread!! All of EVERYONES artwork is truly an inspiration! Mr. Norwell, notstockphoto your work always makes my "EYES BUG and gets ME TA DROOLIN'!!!! " I am always humbled!!

 

Once again - that Keven Carter dude nails it for us! Thanks so much - I think the piece you came up with perfectly nails the vibe we are going for.

I called up Kev and told him we had DicE magazine coming to the show and wanted to have a section of vintage/custom/chopper/bobber bikes there.................
He says "well - I am not used to doing work with bikes - but I will try to do something that you will like"

2 DAYS later - I get this.............gimme a break -
it is freaking phenomenal

I know I have said it before - but if anyone needs great design work - with affordable rates -
Give him a ring.



And on a totally different note...........
I need to get in touch with DOUG HORNE from
www.swampfirelounge.com

(artist that primarily is known for Tiki work)

If he is set up at the GNRS this weekend - can someone please tell him to email me!

I have tried for the past 3 weeks to get him through his site - and nothin.......

I have an interview with him on the next DVD and I need to get in touch with him to clarify some things.

THANKS

 

Great work guys, Wish I could draw like ya all! So here are some shots from last week here in Jersey. Thanks to Ron and Bob. Slim

 

Great work you artistic freaks!

Even from "Sausage Fingers" Norwell....

 

Here are a couple of photo edits I did this week. I think they count.

 

I could take up a page with "attaboys", but I'll keep it short: NotStockPhoto, 1-shot, GaryC, Dutch, Bomonster, widewhitewalls, a**** others (and especially Norwell and Nate), stellar work this week! Thanks for posting the inspiration... Here's a recent design I did for the upcoming Goodguys event shirt in Nashville:

 

ok here are a few..jalopy

 

Wow killer show!
Jeff, Not Stock, Ger, ToddJ, WideWhiteWalls, , KScooter, 1-Shot awesome work!!!!

 

Some practice/concept pieces (4x4 PVC sheet). Looking to stripe some 4x4 bathroom tiles to raise funds during our Relay For Life event in April. C&C on lines, design and experience striping on ceramic tile would be great.

 

Ahhh, friday. Sorry about the bad picture quality, scanner is on the blink.
It looks much better in person. Fine contributions this week as usual.

Thanks for sharing guys!

 

just finished up...jalopy

 

Here is the sticker art I did for Billetproof Florida 2010. Started out in Illustrator with the outlines, did all the shading in photoshop. The inner part of the wheel took a while. I sat and stared out the window at my panel truck's wheels to see how the light worked on the wheel spokes and lug nuts.

 

man, you guys are killin it, I havent done anything for the friday art show for a while, been doing a lot more photography lately...

 

A duo of 1940 Plymouths..one a traditional chop top convert.
the other...well I dont know what I was thinking...maybe it is
a Euro-Sport coupe

 

Wow,,, there is a lot of great stuff so far. Just finished these up. First time trying true fire.





And Jeff, great way to lift your friend's spirits!

Here's mine...

 

Good morning.....great work everybody! In honor of the GNRS here are some pics from 1976 in Oakland that wouldn't post last week....These are mere images but considering the time frame they are a record of some marvelous art!

 

Ed, That sticker is sweet....I think you've raised the bar on this one.
