Two Styles of Painting
Here is combining two styles of painting together. Pinstriping
and Airbrushing . The eagle is done in Auto-Air, then the striping work
is done in One Shot. I have finally done an Eagle I like.
Hope you like this one. It is a Christmas Present for a friend at Starbucks.

Re: Two Styles of Painting
Very nice, I'd be proud of that for sure and I'm sure you are! Question for you, is that done on canvas?

Re: Two Styles of Painting
Cliff,
Thank you very much!!! I can't tell you how many times I practiced on paper and metal to even get the look for an eagle. Now I want to do my Banjo Case
too, as it is a hard surface.
This surface that I pinstriped on and airbrushed is an Oven Burner Cover.
Quickchange who is also a airbrush artist here gave me this idea a few years
ago. She made me a beautiful eagle on a burner cover and sent it to me.
You can buy these at most stores in black and white, and they are not
real pricey. I think for four of them I paid about $6.00. The good thing is
its a hard surface to practice on or just paint them up. Scuff lite with a scotch pad airbrush it and spray clear to protect it. Then Stripe it in oil based paints when finished. I only use a Acrylic type spray can clear at this time to seal airbrushing. Let set a few days before doing anything else.
These are a good way to get a feel painting on hard surfaces. I used to buy
metal panels but the edges are always sharp.
Thank you Cliff,
Fresnojohns

Re: Two Styles of Painting
John, awesome job on the pin stripping as always, as for the eagle, it looks awesome... you have done and incredible job on this and I am sure your friend will love it... I keep saying that I am going to try the pen stripping, but I still haven't. I have to order me a brush and some paint first.... again your work is awesome....

Re: Two Styles of Painting
John, that, my friend, is outstanding!
The eagle is beautiful and the striping is just perfect for the job mate.
Well done brother.

Re: Two Styles of Painting
KD and Ralph,
Thanks for the good words!!!!!! Airbrushing and pinstriping can
work very good together. You can also just do a simple border
stripe around the airbrush design or even some gold leafing.
Maybe the next one I will do a real different style of striping
to accent.
Thanks again,
Fresnojohns
