Art & Inspiration >>>>:: Friday Art Show 03/09/12 ::<<<<

Good morning and thanks all for sharing.
Art Fridays can be addicting.
Two "Before&After" renders:

 

Been learning how to stripe and paint. These are all on 16 gauge steel.

We are raffling these and some other things this weekend at the Days of the Dead horror convention car show - proceeds of which go to a Boxer Rescue fund.

 

Bonjour le HAMB !

 

picked up a brush for the first time in a while.

 

That tiki head is pretty cool

 

Great work everyone so far!!

Here's my newest art print to be available. It's called "You Can't Keep A Hot Rodder Down". I found a photo of this little modified on Saipan in "An Unofficial Pictorial History of the 500th Bomb Group", published in 1946, and I was intrigued. I looked for information on who built it for several months but never could find out any information, even from the 500th BG Association. It looks like it has elements of a Japanese Type 95 car, and aircraft wheels and tires in the front, but who knows what else. Unlike the ETO, the guys in the Pacific had very little to occupy their free time. And like any hot rodder would, this guy found a way to pass the time.

 

WOW!! Lots of great stuff this week! Here's a few more humble contributions of my oil paintings....

 

Really nice work on the watercolors. I can dig it!

 

So happy its Friday, great start fellas!

I sold this original last weekend. I got a fair price and put the for sale on it myself. But as soon as it walked away with the new happy owner I regretted selling it. Why? Because I really liked it. It made me realize that art is such an emotional thing - as is anything creative I guess. I'll need scratch another one to get over my post-sale funk.

GaryC: You're nominated to take over where "Big Daddy" left off. Your bubble top concepts capture the spirit, intent, proportions and kick ass creativity that Roth invented. Bitchin' profile and I especially love the typography design around the illustrations.

 

one word... AMAZING!!!!!!!!

 

Shot I did of "DIRTY NICKEL", the Bare Metal Bastard
