New Projects That I'm Not Ashamed To Show You Guys :)

Some recent other projects that have been created.
Project "Give Me Speed" and a few goodies that were made for my friend Motolady and her 'End of the World' Ride on 12-21-2012. 

Finished the first whole word for the project and took an instagram photo :)
Here's what the letters look like once they've been cut out with the strip applied to the sides to give them their dimension. The welds were ground down where possible, and in the tight spots (corners and inside the letters) the welds were kept as small as possible to be less obvious, while still appearing rugged and very masculine.

Mocking up the sign and trying to get an idea of how the project will look when completed...
The letters have all been cut out of 14 gauge sheet steel and the sides will be added using 1/2" wide steel strip. Here's a photo of the letters all cut out (some with sides, some without) and trying to mock up the sign for spacing, playing with alignment. Just kind of a bit of planning ahead :) 

A nuclear explosion/phoenix themed board for Motolady's 'End of the World' Ride in Portland - 12/21/2012
 A sharpie art skateboard for Motolady (link to her site at the top of the post, pretty cool). 

12" x 18" Watercolors and Inks on Paper
A painting for the same 'End of the World' party/ride for Motolady. The piece is meant to be sort of a 'take the power back' statement, while the wrench was meant to emphasize hard work and real labor. Painted with watercolors and metallic inks on paper, 12" x 18".
