IDEATION PROCESS: THE SKETCHES

A deeper look at the creative process of my rendering and design work. Everything begins on paper with a sketch, and many ideas are often thrown down, around... or in the trash. You may contact me here to hire my services for your project.

▸ PROJECT: BIG RED CAMARO SEMA PROJECT ▸ CLIENT: HOLLEY PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS/BIG RED CAMARO ▸ ROLE: ART DIRECTOR, DESIGNER AND ILLUSTRATOR

The idea was to celebrate the iconic Camaro’s recent conquering of Pike’s Peak, and I instantly had a vision of where I had wanted to go with the artwork. Normally, I’d rough a few thumbnails out to get an idea of the angle of the car and overall composition, but this one I could see in my mind’s eye as clear as day. The art would be dramatic, but from a different angle than my usual work; it had to be. This piece would symbolize my return to the show, and being in a different place. It would pay homage to my always looking up attitude. CLICK HERE FOR A MORE DETAILED LOOK AT THE PROGRESSION OF THE PROJECT

▸ PROJECT: ADRNLN 1971 PANTERA ▸ CLIENT: RING BROTHERS ▸ ROLE: DESIGNER AND ILLUSTRATOR

The 1971 Pantera built by the Ring Brothers. I was called in to refine some forms, and develop concepts for the fore and aft ends of the car, as well as create the final design rendering on the car. Ideas went all over the place, and as the dust settled, a much more modern and aggressive car emerged. Just don't blame me for that interior... Ask the shoe company.

▸ PROJECT: 1970 MUSTANG MACH 1 ▸ CLIENT: J2 SPEED AND CUSTOM ▸ ROLE: DESIGNER AND ILLUSTRATOR

I figured I'd show some of the in-progress, ideation-phase drawings and sketches for a change... A lot of my work involves designing and re-designing cars for client projects; creating custom, unique and one-off appearances for their cars. In this case, a 1970 Mustang was the order of the day, and my client and I had discussed fusing some Mach One and Shelby-influenced pieces for a street machine-turned-custom cruiser. Here's but a few of the ideas I threw around...

▸ PROJECT: McClish Camaro 1968 CAMARO ▸ CLIENT: COTATI SPEED SHOP/MIKE MCCLISH ▸ ROLE: DESIGNER AND ILLUSTRATOR

WHEN THE GAUNTLET IS DROPPED TO CRAFT A 1968 CAMARO THAT WILL FIT OVER THE CHASSIS DIMENSIONS OF A LATE-MODEL Z06 CORVETTE, WELL... THINGS TEND TO BE EASILY DRAWN TO THE OVERKILL SIDE. THIS ROJECT WAS AN EXERCISE IN CONTROLLED MADNESS. DRAWING INSPIRATION FROM A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT NICHES, THE CAR IS A MODERN SUPERCAR TAKE ON A CLASSIC MUSCLECAR THEME. I WAS CALLED BACK IN JUST BEFORE THE SEMA SHOW TO DEVELOP A MODERN CAMO WRAP DESIGN, WHICH WAS THE TALK OF THE SHOW FLOOR. CLICK FOR A DETAILED LOOK AND SEE IT UNVEILED AT THE 2018 SEMA SHOW

▸ PROJECT: CARS & CONES CARITY CUP T-SHIRT DESIGN ▸ CLIENT: FM3 MARKETING ▸ ROLE: DESIGNER AND ILLUSTRATOR

T-shirt concept and final artwork delivered as ready-for-screen. This design holds a special meaning for me, as I was honored to create a piece that paid homage to the memory of my friend Chad Reynolds' wife, Daphne by including her wagon, front and center...
