    John (NotStockPhoto) - You're far too modest ... IMHO, your photographs are "Works of Art" (i.e., you're not just "capturing the moment") ... but then again, what the heck do I know about art? ... I actually think Bob Ross was a talented painter ... and I loved his "happy little trees":

    Way to go Jeff, a well deserved honor. Now, as already suggested, get that thing to Detroit so we've got something to look forward to besides the next snow storm:( I know getting a vehicle anywhere in the winter is a PITA. So.............just to lend a hand, I'll come up and drive it down for you. Now, there is NO excuse for not getting it there. Sometimes I wonder if I've lost my sanity putting the welfare of others first and volunteering for such dangerous missions. :rolleyes::D

    Congrats to both of you ! Jeff's truck is one of the most photogenic that I have had the pleasure of seeing in person and once again John has gone above and beyond. I love the cover shot and the rolling shot even more. It must have been a magical day having these two artistic icons working together to make these pictures happen.

    Congrats Jeff...hope to see you and the truck at Reggies and the Roundup in April...
     
  15. I opened my mailbox today and there you were! A big congrats goes out to one of the most creative, thoughtful and supportive artists I know. After following your design and build here on the HAMB, seeing your efforts get that kind of recognition makes the circle complete. Well earned my friend-I am very happy for you and yes, please do try and come see us for the Detroit Autorama.

    I dont know what I am talking about because I am not an artist.

    But to my eye, some automotive artwork is too perfect.. machine like. Others are too cartoonish and look like a really talented child drew it.

    Yours is that absolute perfect ballance between what is real and what is in our head when we close our eyes to go to sleep.

    Just incredible. Way to go, I hope you become a constant at that magazine becuase I really enjoy your work. Good job.
