A-Bones


Better road action. Still the '29 in the foreground has to get a bigger engine, someting with a blower I think.

Hockney

Still working preparing canvases. It's going well but not much to show. Found this great quote from great artist David Hockney.

“The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty– you know you’re an artist.”

Beautiful!

Painting.

I found som more inspiration from covers of old Hot Rod comics.

I have been working, stretching canvas, changing formats and sizes. At the same time the sketches, especially for the A-Bombs are developed. I'm pleased with how it turns out. New is the overturning '55 Chevy and the '40 Willys trying to avoid the crash. The Deuce Coupe has been there on and off from the start. It still needs a lot of details. The '31 should get an engine, the '55 and the Deuce are still rough sketches.

I hope to start painting on sunday when the gesso is dry.
I probably will work whith these paintings the rest of spring wich means i won't be posting a lot from Dogs for a while. You're of course welcome to follow the painting process.

Stretchers


Got some stretchers fo the A-Bombs and my new portrait project. The cross bracers did'n fit so I had to adjust them. The studio is beginning to look like there is a painter working here.
