Another spaceship related piece. This one is called "Space Race" and features many 50's era spaceships that I wish I owned.

It is kind of an interstellar take on street racing from the 50's & 60's. You can see that the Buck Rogers Rocket Police Patrol is closing in on the other ships having a run through the cosmos.

The piece is 6 x 18 and is pastel on Ampersand Pastelbord, my favorite surface.

If the framing comes in, this one will be included in the show with Paul Chapman at the Corner Gallery, located on the first floor of the Shirt Factory in Glens Falls, NY



 

Finally, settling back into my studio after a visit to Hogwarts and Hogsmeade with my family. First major trip with the rv, and it was quite an adventure!

 

 

Here is a little 5 x 7 that I did today. Hope you enjoy, it's called "Rocket Racer"

 

I think the toy rocket dates back to the fifties, have to see if I can find some more from this era. Great old tin toys, with a lot of sharp edges.
