First off all before you ask. I hate that fucking band, this painting has nothing to do with those jerk-off’. Prior to that band forever ruining that word it used to be a pretty cool car color. In fact it’s the color of my 1928 Model A which looks strikingly similar to this painting for a reason. I took a little liberty with the blower on the motor and technically i painted a 1930 model a not a 28-29 but whatever.. let’s call it a wish list. Also before I go on I feel I must mention this; If one more person brings in a CD of their horrible music and ask me to play it while they are getting tattooed, I don’t think you’ll like how the tattoo comes out. I’ll probably just tattoo two gay unicorns humping on you. Or in the event that you actually asked for said unicorns, I’ll tattoo a big dick on you with a banner that says “I have shitty taste in music please kick me in my balls or vagina and suggest better bands to me”.

This one really kicked my ass. For anyone that has painted with acrylic in this style I’m sure you ‘ve figured out the secret is to paint form the furthest point back and paint layers on top.
So the entire time you have to keep in mind the order in which to paint each section of the painting.

For example…
The blue background first then the gray ground. Then the passenger side of the car, and passenger floor boards etc, then the door panel and shifter and the seat etc… all the way out to the body of the car. Oh wait first you have to paint some of the engine so that the cowl sits on top of the distributor and bell housing… even the door has a few distinct layers to gain a true three dimensional effect.

There are about 15 layers on the engine alone. I think the biggest headache was that I painted it on Illustration board instead of Masonite which really messed with my speed as I had to let some of the acrylic soak in before I could get an opaque coat.

But i digress…
It’s fun to get back to some OG hot rod shit. I haven’t really painted much of it in the last year or so. Damn Tits and Tats project took up too much focus. (I know I let a little bit of tits and tats creep in, old habits die hard) So I’m going to try to get some of these Hot Rod sketches I have laying around finished keep an eye out...

Shazzam Fuckers!

Ok, Ok, one more for the road. The wife wanted one of her actual tattoos, plus i needed a filler page for the calendar. Which is in pre press right now i just have to make some final tweaks it should be on the press next week.

Prints available soon but in the meantime here is the speed painting on it:

Blow-Her!

Blow-Her!, originally uploaded by slushbox.

Ok, so this was fun as fuck to paint! I spent all afternoon Saturday and Sunday watching the Lost TV show Auction and painting this. I lost every item I bid on. It really made me pretty sad. I loved that show and all I wanted was a Dharma Jump suit! ... or one of the hatch doors, or some fake Black Rock dynamite, damn-it! And I blame Amanda for talking me out of bidding on Lockes Coffin. $1200!!! come on that was a steel! I'll show you where I’d have kept it!

Anyway, I'm starting to blend my kustom kulture car stuff and my boobie series! Best of both worlds, right? This is going to premier at the Howley’s Hot Rods and Hot Chicks art show tonight, that is if no douchey customers bitch about her nipples being out. Fuckers.

Now, how can I blend Cars, Lost and Boobies? Hummm, the wheels are turning. Frozen Donkey Wheels! (that sold for $27k if you were wondering)

The Empty Barrel Fuel Depot

The Empty Barrel Fuel Depot Finished, originally uploaded by slushbox.

This piece was commissioned by a collector of mine she, has two other original paintings of mine already and wanted to add something custom to her collection. I think it came out sick. I'm really proud of how moody it came out. She brought some great ideas to the table on this collaboration. Thanks Kathy hope you like it!

So I did a live painting at the Art Nouveau Seven Deadly

Photo by Bruce Almberg

Sins show in West Palm last Wednesday. First time I’ve done any sort of live painting. Which is probably pretty anti-climactic for anyone watching basically just me hunched over a small table with very tiny brushes and bad lighting…

This actually took almost 5 hours to complete but I’m sure a lot of that was due to taking breaks to talk to people that were interested in the work. Got some really good feedback on the pieces and some interest in some custom ones. The wife claimed this one guys, so sorry the original is not for sale, but I will make some prints. I also decided to do at least 3 more to complete the calendar set of 12, but I have a large commissioned piece I need to finish first.

Baby Doll

Here is the 7th painting in the set of 9. Last of the traditional tattoos. I think I'm going to start taking custom orders on these because I want to sell them in sets of 3, but a lot of people have expressed intrest in individual ones. So I may do custom peices for people.

Man's Ruin

El Diablo

Here is part 5 of 9 and the last of the hot rod set of 3. This one took me a little bit longer to finish just under 4 hrs.

I may consider doing more of these, but i need some more pictures of tits. So if you wnat your boobs imortalized in a painting feel free to email me pictures I'll even give you a print of them, hah!

Fink

Here is part 3 of the series. I decided to change it around a bit there are going to be 9 total peices 3 sets of 3. 3 Hot rod tattoo versions, 3 japanese tattoo versions and 3 traditional tattoo versions. I'll probably sell them as sets of 3 so not to break up the groups.

Here is the time lapse on this one. I finally got a good mounting place for my camera so there shouldn't be as many shots of the back of my head.

Classy

Here is part 2 of the series. I went from 6 to 7 to a 9 part series now.
I have all the sketches done. and i'm going to try to complete at least 2 paintings each week. (I got 3 done last week)

I did a timelapse with this one too and this time included the shaded pencil underdrawing. I even got fancy and added some music. Sorry for getting my big head in the way of some of the shots!

Beat Down

I shot this in my garage prior to it being loaded with tools and crap. These came out pretty cool. The oil stains on the floor actually give it a really gritty look. I was really diggin’ how the blue in the car and the flower pop together. The rockabilly ones are pretty tough but we were pressed for time I wish I had a little more time to do those.

This is from an old photo shoot with Amanda. It’s with my 1928 Model A shortly after it was finished. It started raining right before we shot so I had to use a pop up tent to keep us dry.. It Came out ok, but I'd like to retry this one again one day.

Faster, Lea! Kill! Kill

Faster, Lea! Kill! Kill - 0411, originally uploaded by slushbox.

These photos were from a set I did with Lea Vendetta for Kustom Magazine in France. She found this awesome location smack in the middle of the suburban Boynton Beach and we almost had to fight bums cause I think we were shooting in their living room. When I visited the location the day before the funny part was the bums were dressed in military uniforms I can only imagine to add credibility to their “Vietnam Vet, will work for food” signs.. to bad they were younger than me. They were doing crazy whistles to one another which cracked me up. Yeah real subtle, like I wouldn’t notice his bird call to his buddy.
Despite the run in with the local gentry we were able to score some pretty amazing shots! Tura Satana eat your heart out!
