Art & Inspiration >>>FRIDAY ART SHOW..... Happy Thanksgiving<<<

Well I guess I will start it off this week. Here is something I am working on.

 

This is something I did tonight just after dinner. I call it "Hey Maud"

 

Here is a bike I picked up earlier this fall and did not know too much about. It is a bike that was originally built in the early 30's for Sam Schwartz of FAO Schwartz fame. It was designed by the DP Snyder company, built by the DP Harris company (Rollfast and Peerless badges). The original bike was rough. Cleaned it up best I could and added a set of Felt Quick Brick White Walls.

 

Smooth Sledding
You'll see lots of '49 Mercs, some Fords, and a few Chevys
but nothing makes a low-riding sled like a '49 Buick.
I think that Candy Purple and Lime Green are of
sufficient impact for this toothy custom!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

 

LockwoodKustoms - Nice!
GaryC - *****in'!

CAR-tooned another Burbank Choppers ride; Aaron's "Bad News" '27 model T this time:

Not much...but at least something though! A "exercise" with light and so on...

CONGRATULATIONS Janne!!! Great custom

 

Some drawings on this week and my friend´s b***. That isn´t ready yet. I will do some pinstriping on the other side.

 

Looks Good Mr Lockwood...

 

Janne- Kongrats on the R & C gig. That's a crafty piece to start with.
Here's a few day's worth of visual diarrohea courtesy your's truly. Top left is Australia's favourite g***er- the first Holden.
Don't forget to click on these thumbnails for a decent squizz..
Oh, and hey Joe- what a neat old push- bike- I keep going back to look at it- it's so trick, from the tyres to the head stem. Best thing for me is despite the details being so neat it's the overall beauty of the form which still shines through.

I've always dug the skid- kid ( bobber ) style- no bling, just a neat style you can ride. Cheap to run & get fit too..
Hello Gary- Purple & green go together well- as would we all as owners of '49 Buicks such as you have kindly herewith shown. Hesitate not good fellow to sail forth once again into the natural world of the insect- that green machine of a few weeks ago was groovy..

 

Janne congrats, killer work as usual!

Ive been working on putting this sketch in colour but couldnt get it done for this weeks show so look for it next week



and something I posted up in the FAST group it is OT, but I figured what the hell I'll post it up here too. 12x24 acrylic on canvas

 

Another one i made just now...



Too bad the details are not visual on the jpgs though...there are some...

 

I hope everybody had a happy thanksgiving.

 

I love the vintage illustrations.

 

Great stuff, thanks for sharing jeff. We have a bunch of original old auto ads that used to hang on our walls. I love the golden age of illustration. That was REAL craftsmanship.

Here's mine for the week. Not new art, just a new application of my art... on pillowcases.

Company called Hell's Blankets out of Australia licensed the design from me.

Great stuff Jeff - First car manufacturer that would hark back to that style of advertising now would surely draw a lot of attention...

Janne - Very well done; congratulations!

Rikster - Nice job on the kolorizing of some of the Fremont drag strip photographs in Coby's Church Magazine issue #5!

Rob - I would sleep on that!

 

Great show today, you guys! So much illustration talent here.

Jeff, about your comments on automotive illustration of yesteryear: So true, so true...
