In Memory "Big Jim"


This is a pencil sketch of James Schaefer's 70' Duster. He was a big member of the River Valley Mopar Club. He passed away Monday August 17th, 2009. He was in process of converting it to a 5 speed automatic to be featured at Monster Mopar Show in St. Louis coming up. I haven't heard if some of the club members are going to take it now, I hope they do. Well I drew this picture as a memorial for him and will give it to the club president so he can pass it on. I am glad I had the chance to meet him and talk to him about his Duster and get ideas for mine. Now we will all have to wait to see him again. It really puts into your mind that you never know the last time you will see someone.

"Lonely"


This is a pencil rendering of a 57' Chevy in the weeds. I borrowed this picture from an artist on the Hamb Art show. With permission I couldn't wait to draw it, although it took me a lot longer to find time to work on it, here it is. This piece was challenging for me. I am thinking about doing a tri-five series now. If only there was more time in the day. This was drawn 8"x10". Prints are available for this picture as well others. This one is $50 for a 11"x14" print on high quality acid free paper using a giclee process.
