Art & Inspiration <<<<FRIDAY ART SHOW>>>Canada day weekend

Is it OK for a canadian to start this week's art show ?

 

Happy Kanuck day to my fellow Canadiens, eh? KNUX!

 

How about a little metal art for this week's show?

 

Not everyones cup-o-tea, but it is helping fund my wifes mission trip to the Phillipines in July. Going to a HAMBer.

 

Finished the clock......

 

Nothing much to add this week but heres a piece i finished for a friend..

I should have some stuff later just need some batteries for the camera Janne are ya using prismacolors.

 

surf monkey: Thanks!
leadsledolds: I use mostly Copic Markers and my colored pencils are nowadays Prismacolor Verithins. I bought them (pencils) from NY couple months ago since they don't sell them in Finland. Some airbrush also in above picture without masking.

 

Last week I posted the start of one of the paintings I was working on.
I had bee trying to get itdone for last weeks show but got too busy. This week I had time to work on it.
Here is what I showed last week for the start of the painting, just the sketch
and some white and brown thrown on to get the feel of where I wanted
to go with it. This photo got a bit deformed. The final shown is more accurate.


This was one of those paintings again that gave me a bit of trouble but
it worked out in the end. Yes the windshield was left on purpose.
It is supposed to be a last run taken before heading home from the lakes.
I hope you like it. Finished on Tuesday. 12 X 36 Acrylics.

I like!

 

Janne ...your stuff rocks, i always look forward to your posts every week!
keep on it

I'm working on a tee shirt design right now, but it's a bit OT for this board and it's for a new movie coming out called Charlie Bartlett! look for it in a few months, its a good flick.

 

This is the poster for our vintage scooter rally -- LUCKY No.7 -- going on this weekend.

This is the photoshopped mockup -- it's at the screenprinter's now.

 

Haring,
weird man, I was just about to upload this:

 

Great show so far, I want to put on something that I last worked on in '97. Since I been contributing to the art show, its got me in the mood to finish this thing. Next time you see it , it might be in color or get a lot more ink. It's just a typical fantasy bonneville scene, with Divco wheels, hemi and halibrands. Sometimes I "F" things up when I decide to use color thats why I have left like it is till now. Enjoy.

 

That is SICK Tingler............

 

nice work fellas.

 

hot rod gas

 

The Jade Grenade is awesome and that clock is great!
I've been busy the last couple of weeks so I finally have some new stuff to contribute.
First is a '67 beetle. The only instruction I got from the female owner was she wanted it to be "bad *** but still girly"







Did a little lettering at a local show on the weekend. I'm very new to lettering so go easy!



Added some flames to my fenders too.

 

This might be only interesting to me, but here is a old letter from Pat Ganahl telling me why this drawing wouldn't reduce in size without losing detail.This may have been about the last time I tried to get stuff in magazines.
Pat would always write me back and bend over backwards to help me. I treasure these letters, even this rejection letter of sorts. I always have been drawing these Barris syle 41-48 Fords, I love them.
I always tell people I've been rejected by the best.

 

happy long weekend Rollie:0
amazing work everyone!

 

G.V. Gordon,
I'll take a cup of that, please.

 

Damb! I wish I had gotten back a letter telling me why the art I sent in got rejected. Would have liked the feedback. (Some did get printed in a reject issue though).

Thanks for sharring that!

I like your stuff.

 

Hey eyebone, thanks

 

......another job I got a pic of today
