Cover.

This is great! Jean-Marie Distaso from France covered my painting "Wood Chase". Check out his work at: Tableaux a l'eau.

Wood Chase

Working on a study for a another Hot Rod painting. Thanks Jan-Ove at http://www.earlyford.no/ for use of the photo of the kool Mercury. The A is my own, somewhat photoshopped.

More inspiration from 19th cetury swedish artists, this time Prins Eugen. The wood 1892.

Work in progress.

Making progress with Gas. I would call this the layout. Hope to finish in a couple of weeks.

I made a new sky, inspired by Nordic Summer Evening 1899-1900, by swedish artist Richard Bergh.

Color

I started to "paint" my drawing for "Gas" using photos, photoshop brushes and structures from photos. I turned out that my perspective wasn't wery well done so I had to make a new composition. It may seem a little rough but I think it will work just fine when I start painting.

By the way, I have made a lot of progress on my portrait of KW.

A-Bones

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

Transferring

Charcoal on canvas.

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.

Found

Oh, I just found the first thumbnail sketch for No Gas. This is the actual size. The finished painting will mesaure approximately 130 x 155 cm.

Painting.

I might actually have finished these scetches. It's time to stretch some canvas.

Moving On?

Gas

No gas. Study for painting.

Working

She's overtaking.

Working

Drawing the '29 model A.

Working

Making some progress with the A-Bombs, this is time consuming work. Lot's of details that has to be correct, and in perspective. Happy New year!
