669 makes it to the U.K. !

669 makes it into PINSTRIPING & Kustom Graphics Magazine...thisd is a magazine based out of the United Kingdom, very delighted to have some page time and spread the "669 Gospel"...ROD~ON!

"The Hayseed"

this Vette aka, "The HAYSEED"ripped up the strip in the late 60's and early 70's...it was a major treat and honor when i was asked to draw it up.

better late then never~~!

i am going to get back at this "Kool Nuze" on a much more regular basis. so let's start off with a "start-2-finish", shall we?...many times i receive comments and messages about what type of illustration program i use, or what type of trace format do i like the best? truth be told, this artwork is not generated with a trace program..and nope, it's not clip art in an illustration program eiter..yes, it's actually conceived from my noggin' and out through a pencil..an actual pencil..from there it's groomed to its final fit and finish. in the near future i will be working with some new software with the hopes of not taking my art to a "new level" but rather taking it in another direction..a new texture, a new look. but back to this post, enjoy this start to finish of a job i finished not too long ago.

!! 669 SHIFT KNOBS !!

Let me introduce my first 2 Shift Knobs “SKREAMER” and “KOMPRESSION”!I started these back in September with the intention of the debut/deadline, the GRAND NATIONAL ROADSTER SHOW @ the end of this month. hurrah, deadline met!

Starting off with these 2 with 2 more designs in late spring…need to turn the nickles into dimes first!You won’t find these “anywhere” except my website and a few premiere speed shops scattered around America.

I AM the artist that drew these, I AM the artist that sculpted these, and I AM the artist that will be painting a limited/numbered run of them. Cost for the shift knobs (unfinished) is $30.00 (s&h inc. in US)

The shift knobs are up in the "669 Store"..stop by and check out the site and per~uze all the nifty things inside!

as always, enjoy the art!

!! 669 POSTCARDS !!

About a month ago I blew the dust off the camera and headed to a private junk yard about 50 miles away to see if I still had the same skills as I did back when I was the photographer for my 7th grade class yearbook...??!!

had a blast even if I was met at the gate by the fellow and his shot gun (that's Vermont for you)..."I WAS INVITED, I PROMISE!"

The tour of his abundance of early iron was beyond belief, took over 300 images and chose these 6 to start off with. End result, a 12 ct. postcard set. 6 images, 2 of each image. Cost is $10.00 plus s&h.

You can check them out in the "669 Store" on the site!

as always, enjoy the art!
