Art & Inspiration ...step right up "Friday Art Show" 04/20/12...

Love all the photography this week, Bomonster - crazy, the repair shop graphic is terrific and I love the simplicity of Jimmy's streamliner.

I've been busy on a commission lately and have been neglecting the HAMB - but I have got a few sketches to share. First up an old landy...

This one was commissioned by a chap in Canada - he built the car himself using a huge truck chassis...

I did a few more postcard-sized made up cars...


a quick sketch of the big Fiat LSR car...

this one I did on the iPad, painting over one of the Audi press launch images...

and lastly there's this. It's the test rig for the rocket that will go in our LSR car. 1000L of HTP and a pump driven by an 800hp F1 engine - it'll empty it in 20secs! I sketched it on paper, took a photo of it and added the colour on the iPad - nice to be able to leave out the scanner...

 

dig that one Tony...that'll make a great shirt

 

Another fabulous FAS. Thanks to all for sharing thier talent.

I got two more this week. Once again they are off topic. Great show again everyone. Andy Vaughn.

 

Chainsaw Chuck did this one - looks REALLY great - thanks for all that have contributed - and hope that all those people that have outstanding Rat Finks can send them now.

 

good metering work, like the composition.

 

Jimmy Flintstone skull that I painted enamel.

 

Thanks Ron! Great truck - had a lot of fun drawing that!

 

I have a love/hate relationship with Fridays. You folks put up some incredible work, but you set the bar so high! I dig it, I would tell each of you what I dig but I literally don't have time, lunch hour is almost up. Thank you all for posting!

Here's a couple of my night shots while goofing off on Congress on Thursday night.









That's probably too many but I really dig going out with a fixed lens with a big aperture and just seeing what I can find by the city lights. Hope you guys and gals have a fantastic Friday and weekend.

See you at a show,

Travis

What a great Friday art show!!! Way to cool stuff gang! Love the multiple van renderings! Heres my stuff for the week. Lunch box and a helmet

 

KILLER!

These cars are from the Deluxe Speed Shop in Denver, Colorado. I don't know the owners personally, but I'm pretty sure that's the fathers car on the right and the sons on the left. They're going to LOVE this!

 

amazing show! some really inspirational stuff, keeps reminding me to get myself to do some more proper stuff.

I'll contribute with a few sketches, again


(dont look at the messed up leaf spring, it was a late late nite heheh)

 

Que Stick Canes

One with an antique glass door knob and one with a 1 Ball mounted on top.

Not really auto related but think of them as wooden shift levers. lol

 

Thanks Corvette bob!!

 

Thanks fur biscuit. I have shot with this Argus C3 for 7 years and it keeps amazing me with just what it can produce. Now it can't get the detail like the Graflex can, but I am just loving the tones it gets!

 

here is another shot of the same car

 

and another of that bobber I shot on the same roll in a back alley in Escondido, CA before I moved out to Philly in 2010

 

Great show today!!

Here's a work in progress, garage seat..made from a Dummer seat and base of an office chair, maroon with ivroy stripes.

 

Square.. that is a bad ass seat!!

 

First post for me...Everybody gets better every week! Great stuff

 

Very Cool, I like it! What is the size?

 

Now I know what to do with that old one I have!!!!
Thanks, Dude!!

Hey - by the way, nothing from me, but what an awesome show this week everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thanks! It's about the size of a shift knob.

Keven....thanks again for doing our logo. Stacy and I couldn't be happier.

 

Here's a couple I threw together

 

Wow, these are awesome works of art. So photography is OK to post, even if the Photoshop is only mild?
