A British classic from the late 60’s. My digital graphic illustration (above) was created using a limited color palette (shadow, midtone and highlights). I chopped the windows for a sleeker look. Then added a little rough texture for interest . The “Jag” reference (see photos below ) was my inspiration. (Photoshop)
A sleigh and reindeer aren’t Santa’s only form of transportation. He loves to run errands in his 1937 Ford Woody. Happy Holidays 2015! (Photoshop/Illustrator)
My interest in Hotrods and Customs started in the mid 90’s after illustrating a couple of Posters (traditional illustration) for the Detroit Autorama. The reference (see image below left) is one from my collection of photos from the Woodward Dream Cruise. The distressed painted metal (see image below right) was the starting point for the background texture. (Photoshop)
This custom beauty was spotted on a trip to the Carlisle Car Show with my father in 2009 (see images below left). The car was drawn using a charcoal brush (see image below middle). I love to use texture to add interest to my digital paintings. (Photoshop)
This Corvette illustration started as a commissioned project (reference photo from client below left). The B&W line illustration (see image below right) was used in print ads and as a billboard for Onstar. I added color (chalk brush) and texture to finish it off. (Photoshop)
The car designs of the late 50’s were beautiful to the artistic eye. With their long sleek profiles and wonderful tailfins. My digital graphic illustration (above) was created by using a limited color palette and simplifying shapes. Then a body color change to sharpen the curves. The “T-Bird” (see photo below middle) was found and shot at the Meadowbrook Concours d’Elegance Car Show in Rochester Hills. (Photoshop/Illustrator)
