Art & Inspiration ***Friday Art Show****

Love the blueprint - it's great to be able to see the ghost of the original car.

 

Great show Guy's!

Here some quick sketches I've been working on lately. The La Salle is from a show in Indiana. I was also at the LA Roadster Show a few weeks ago and got inspired by some unbelievable cars!
These are 10 1/2"x 14" on board 15" x20"



"LaSalle"


HHR's "Ruby Deluxe"


Kirk's "Legion Special"


El Jefe's "The Waco Kid"

 

Great looking show again! Never a lack of talent here guys and gals.
I've got a few things cooking in the design department, but not worth showing just yet. I did do a little shooting recently though. Couple of weeks back we had the Sins of Steel show here in Detroit and I got a chance to shoot the winner of the previous year Best of show winner and pin up. I just completed the 2010 shoot too here with the Olds and the Pin up winners. These aren't all touched up yet, but balanced out for best light.




Enjoy

 

Neal, Gary, thank you guys ....... it's 8:30 AM Friday here in LA and we all ready have four pages of great art work. Awesome stuff by everyone. Johnny Casket, I'm really digging your grave yard artwork.

 

wow, reaallllly awesome stuff everyone!


I might as well call this out before someone else picks up on it - I have an error in my drawing that LOWCAB caught onto and let me know (thankfully he did before i started a print run!)
I have the year under the blueprint as 1930, whereas it should actually be 1929. Gotta fix that!

 

Ed!
What show are you talking about in Indiana?
Won't be there this year, but I will see you again next?

Here is my stuff for this week. Was motivated more than usual and have two.
Oil on canvas

Here's a few pics of a seat I just finished:

The lighting wasn't very good:





Here's one of the bottom out in the sun for a better idea of the color:



It's for sale also, so if interested drop me a PM

 

Is that Boomer's car?

 

Um WOW! Not that I could afford it, but is it for sale?

So damn COOL!!!!

 

Nice work! Great subject....you need to put all the trophy's in too

 

Thanks... Actually, it's an Oldsmobile. What can I say, it was early in the morning when I posted. Guess I was still asleep.

 

Great capture Dan .........

 

Just like the summertime...This Show is HOT!

 

Great stuff so far guys!

Been kicking around some ideas for new shirts. Had an awesome run on my latest designs in 2 & 3 color but I have been thinking of going back to my roots and doing another set of single color shirts. But this time in cream/ivory on the fronts only. I done some designs for Matt at Twisted Metal a few months back and fell in love with the look of those shirts.

Maybe something along these lines is next to get printed. Feedback please!

 

That's freaking awesome!

 

Diggin the inspiration from everyone again. Just about finished with KKOA piece. Lookin forward to the show.

Hey that's my old man's truck! Thanks Dan looks great, he'll love this!!

 

Just to throw something else in here.

"Tiki Hulk"

 

Well I guess this is kinda car related haha. I did this sculpture for fellow HAMBer and long time pro skater Steve Caballero (coupe-de-cab). I was so pumped to do this for him. I'm a long time skater myself. And the fact that he had a SWEET model A coupe made it even better. Thanks!

 

Thanks Bob for your comment.

This is very cool! Does this drive in really exist somewhere?

Dan

 

Outrageously cool and well done!

 

Love all of your photos - but this is my fav! Seriously cool!

 

Thanks Dan .......it's a movie prop for American Graffiti. Thought it would look cool behind the front three cars.
