Art & Inspiration (((((((( Friday Art Show, 08/19/2016 ))))))))

Here are a few fake automobile ads I've made.
They use pieces from era-correct illustrations and actual headlines and copy.

 

Thanks Gary



'Hampstead' watercolour- based print

 

Very cool work Gary .....great looking ads.

 

Figured it must be getting close to time....
One from me tonite, taken a couple of years ago.
Just gave it a slight twist....
Have a fab weekend everyone.

 

Love the ’60 Ford Gary. All are great but that one sings!

Bob, that is so great! Looks like oil on canvas.


I finally finished a commission for a kind fella out east... He has two stunning ’55 Chevys, an all original 210 Bel Air and a Nomad treated to a few modern upgrades. All the original stuff is safely boxed away I’m sure.,




Some may recall:

 

I drew a few more, for { Bonneville's Speed Week }. Thanks to all the HAMB'ers for their nice photos these week. I just wish that I could be there too. Congratulations to Danny Thompson for his new speed record. 402 MPH. Cool! His dad would be proud. A great family of Hot Rodders . Have a great F A S and weekend too. Ron...

 

This is one of my favorite cars. Doug Rice's 39 coupe. It has it all. A great Kustom and Rod too. He built and raced it in the early 50s . { A very Kool coupe!} He was racing it on the salt , in 53 maybe earlier. I truly Love this Rod. Ron...

 

Remarkabe stuff. I almost got my car keys and headed down to the dealer! Gary

 

love the drawing of the Bonneville Boomer.

 

Gary that is some cool stuff! I think that someone should build that 60 Ford pickup {Ranchero }, That is way too cool. That's what I liked about models and drawing, you can create this cool stuff. That you would never be able to build otherwise. Thanks for all the Art this week. Here is a quick sketch of a Belly Tanker. I may try and add some color and salt to it later if time permits. Ron...

Great work everyone. Bob I love that jalopy race with the flag girl. And that roadster is awesome Davkin. I wish I knew how to do that. It is very cool. I'm to old school, just a pencil and bic pen.lol Here is another one. It is a 34 Ford sedan on the salt. Ron...

 

Last week I posted just the chain guard. I thought I would show you the finished product on the Salt. Bike is custom also, we stretched the frame 5" (foot forward design). The riding was awesome. Gary

 

WOW !!!
Thanks.
Later,

Here's another shot of the salt. Gary

When I wuz a kid...... well we had a 4dr 55 Chevy wagon. same color...and we sold it and got a 64 Chevy wagon. A local man bought it and kept it into the 21st century when he sold it to a man who restored it all original Now a local rodder has it and plans on Bagging and big blocking it. Shhhheeess
