Custom Air Maxes Progress

Here are concept sketches and progress shots of a new pair of Air Maxes in the works for a client down south. You can also see some color mockups and basic layout ideas in the progress shot at top. I went through a few different directions conceptually, but feel I landed on a solid solution.

Look for final shots and more info soon.

The Hand Painted Sign Progress

Fairly short and sweet post, here is a shot of a handpainted sign in progress. Using spraypaint for the main lettering, oil based for the back drop, and on location I will hand paint highlights during the installation. Painted on sign wood, jig saw edges, and much more to come from The Sharpest Rides creative endeavor 2011.

Yeah so I save a post here and there

In the everyday fun of creating and advertising, and promoting, and then creatively advertising. Okay well enough of that, amidst the daily happenings I will save a post, title it, and then move on to other projects. Well give me a break, I want to keep you all informed of new works and the like, but sometimes late at night I just want to kick my feet up, and publish the Post the next day or somewhere down the line. Hope you don't hate me for it, just doing my best to keep the imagery coming.


Some shots from Jenna Avriel Rice digging in the photo archives from 2009. More to come on her website soon.

Cessna departing Studio

In February, I had completed this commission of a Cessna 182, this is a quick mobile photo of the piece on its way out the door of the studio to the collector, digital capture will be posted at a later date, but for now you can see the finish has many of the qualities of the Study I posted about earlier, and many that were more spontaneous as the painting was taking form.

Alligator April Fools

While hanging out w my good friend's son Rocco, I drew this alligator at the Denver Zoo, nostrils and eyes slightly cracking the surface of the water, I wonder if the April fools joke is whether it is practicing stealth attacks, or just relaxing. Rocco also produced a really nice drawing that I will post later.
