On a lighter note, I pinstriped a few models for a photo shoot (dont worry, we used a non toxic body paint, the stuff was kinda wierd to work with but the girls didnt like the idea of showering in mineral spirits). And I have a new found respect for tattoo artists. People just dont sit still!
I got a few more works, but I've been awake for comin' up on twenty hours today and I'd like to sleep. So I'll post the others in the morning. Everyone is doing so well! I really like those pinstriped tikis! Keep up the good work. RJB
Fridays, you got to love em. So much great work shows up on here. I feel very priveleged to be able to contribute to something that has so many talented people ***ociated with it. Geoff aka Whodaky

Well here's what I've been working on the last few weeks. Did this piece for a friend of mine, it's his brothers car. The pic is not the greatest, I'm still trying to get the hang of a new digital camera. This is the only shot I have, it's kind of distorted. Looks way better in person.
[ QUOTE ] The last pic is of a panel I posted on the March 30th Friday show.....I think Donzie will get this for his door prize give away at his show in September. Joel [/ QUOTE ] Wow, too cool Joel. I'm thrilled to get it. I may end up bidding on it to go with the first one I got from you. Thanks.

here is my latest. Every week the work gets better!!! keep up the insperation!! Soory I'm too stupid to get this thing resized right now!!!
Took this picture this morning when I went out to the shop.I had parked my wife's Tracker next to a couple of those solar powered yard lights and during the night a spider had fashioned a web running from the rear wheel well to one of the lamps.A really nicely shaped orb and pretty large.Took several shots and this one came out the best.Don't know if it qualifies as art but to me ALL spider webs are works of art.
started this at the UK Nats show last weekend....most of you know the car and possibly the background....need to darken the sign and work out how background to put in....you can get carried away on subjects like this.....bad scan of the piece and a bad job s***ching the image together as well (too big for the scanner) theres some good stuff on here this week ...love those models monkey
Jester and Safari, I reckon that stuff is art. It is messing with images or seeing interesting things that to me are inspirational. I am always looking at reflections and shadows and all sorts of stuff. When I see them I think they may be interesting and I believe they become implanted in my subconscious and may be one day come into play in smothing I may be doing. I think sometimes when I post model shots, hey are they art. But I believe they are because they are depicting something I have produced. They are a pysical 3 dimensional production of my ideas. From that others maybe inspired. I love seeing the models others show on here and I would hope others get something out of what I present here. I see the Friday art and all those involved as one big think tank. We are all inspired by what we see on here. The really great part it is in a great spirit. A very non compe***ive environment and no big egos to deal with. It doesn't matter what your skill level or what you present here, you are accepted as an equal and that is very important for the nurturing of what we are all doing. Whoops didn't mean this to turn into a rant. But hey I just get carried away and like to express myself through words sometimes! Geoff aka Whodaky
