Description Postwar California, and the dry lakes... Where hot rodding was born and refined. My tribute to not only the classic lakes roadster, but to the hobby in general...
Mixed media here... some traditional pen, ink and guache, and even a touch of Illustrator CS2, just to keep everything in line.
I've been working with a printer to do some giclee prints, and can't wait to hang canvas #1 in my home.
Thanks for looking!

Beautiful roadster... much better than the glass bodied Floyd Cotterpin things you see these days.

Can't say that I do, but, meh... the only interesting thing I think that he's ever built was the alumatub... even so, it's not like HE even built it...

Oh wow. Your car art is amazing. And everything's so clean I'd never guess it was paint.

Gotta love the classic desert chrome gradient. It's my favourite gradient in the world.
