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

Gas station toby.
Almost finished painting this one.
They are made from cast iron, this is about the eighth one ive done for my auto sparky.

 

In the dumb questions department... why do the mfgs of Sharpies put "permanent marker" on them if they aren't? And why do folks use them to autograph things (like my auto / racing heros!) let alone use them as media, if they aren't? Gary

 

I believe "permanent" just means they are water resistant. Even with archival art inks you see the word "permanent" used that way.
