Art & Inspiration ><((((:>Good Friday Art Show 03-25-2016<:))))><

Good suggestions. I was originally thinking “... a hoped up model Ford...”
I roughed out a Deuce coupe today but it needs work...

 

It has been a Good Friday on the Art Show. GaryC's Henry just blew me away - top notch work!

Been a while since my last contribution - from the 2015 Hot Rod Hill Climb:

232B - Jon ****ling - 1932 Ford Roadster - 1 by Mike Rogers, on Flickr

Not exactly HAMB material, but I liked how this one came out - from the Petersen Automotive Museum, Precious Metal collection:

1957 Ferrari 625-250 Testa Rossa &amp; 1954 Mercedes Benz W1 by Mike Rogers, on Flickr

 

This is from the "centerfold" of Navy Times, sometime in 1974. I was on the USS Independence, floating around the Med.

 

Still feels like Friday...One last thing...My buddy convinced me in the very early 90s to get a Computer...It was an Amiga 500 (still believe that was an incredible machine). This was a Deluxe Paint bitmap artwork I did and Hey...got to clone it and flip it and presto...reflection. I then printed it on my state of the art dot-matrix printer. I still love the raw sketch but to graphic art the computer is a great tool. I find both to be invaluable and provide unexpected results in a good way.

Wow, vintage digital on FAS ^.



Acrylic, canvas



Jigger, Dad had a stack in his barber shop. Prolly get busted for ***ism or sumpin' these days.. where's my eggs..

 

Think I will use the occasion of Gary’s Henry J to post one more for the week, just to completely monopolize things... This is one some probably are familiar with but since
Spoggie is asking for Easter eggs, here is an Easter Egg colored Henry J........ with gas...

 

I just wanted to say thanks for the comments and "likes" on my Henry J art.
It's very appreciated. Something else that I found very appreciated this week was a
twenty page feature in Randy Lorentzen's new digital magazine "Rodding Revolutions".
Lots of interesting articles and really great cars! Check it out when you can... here's a link.

It has been a good Friday. Most of my old doddles came from ones I did in grade school and high school , In school all I heard from the teacher's was bla. bla. bla. I had HOT RODS on my mine. So These came from my attic which know one has seen in over 40 years. Also, at the time I liked the motorcycle movies , like Wild Angels. So I drew them too. Here's a couple. Thanks Ron...

 

Good show, guys! Here's all I have of the Easter Bunny!

NOTE: The "14 Karat Konvincer" was a prelim. sketch for a bracket car artwork.

 

Thank you Ken!
