New Interview...

Here is the interview in the new issue of AutoArt Magazine...

New How-To Article...

The current issue of AutoArt Magazine contains two features on me, one is this how-to article, and the other is an interview and portfolio profile. I like this article on how to airbrush flames that look like they are "punched out" of the metal. It's a fairly easy method of painting flames, and when it's done right, it really looks great. The best part is that it's so simple to do, and requires only two colors! I have some future projects that I'm thinking about documenting for how-to articles also, so look out for those!

More Lowrider Action...

This morning I was brought this lowrider to pinstripe. The owner requested that I use the interior colors, and no long lines, only scroll designs. I really hate painting on white, but this is what I had to work with, so I rolled with it. My lowrider striping style has been evolving into a scroll/tribal hybrid that I really like. The owner liked it too! Cars like this are so fun to drive, and even though I only took it for a ride around the block, I want to own one really bad!

Heavy Metal Sign...

Here is an A-frame sign I painted for a friends custom shop. I also designed the logo and his business cards. The sign is a combination of brush painted lettering and airbrushing. I like the old school look of the lettering the best...

Low Ri Der...

I'm still recovering from being very ill, and haven't been too active, but yesterday I added some gold, silver, and varigated leaf and striping to this lowrider...

Back in the Groove...

...after being in bed for a week because of illness, I finally got back to work, and I spent all day applying gold leaf and stripes to a lowrider. When it's finished, I will post photos, but in the meantime, here are two pics of some gold leaf work done to a truck that I did a few weeks ago. We painted a vertical fade on it, then a gold stripe around the body, and some striping designs to give it some personality...

...nothing says class and status like real gold leaf on your ride
