Making Signs the Old-Fashioned Way





New Suzuki TU 250


I saw this great little bike at the Vancouver Motorcyle Show.  It would be cool if they made this as an 850.

British Motorcycle Owners Club Display 2011









This was the BMOC display at the Vancouver International Motorrcycle Show this year.  I am a member of the club, and it was my job this year to paint the sign used in the recreation of the 1960's era Ace Cafe.  The theme of the display was the cafe racer, and many execellent bikes were included in the display.  These were all BMOC member bikes, with the exception of the 2011 Norton. I was quite happy with the way the sign turned out, as well as the airbrushed brickwork.

Racing Action at the 2011 Vancouver Motorcycle Show!





There was racing again this year at the show.  All sorts of bikes were on hand to tackle the track, from vintage British cafe racers to 1970's Yamaha XT dirtbikes.  Providing the musical backdrop was the local sickle band The Vicious Cycles.

New 2011 Norton at the Motorcycle Show


Here is the brand new 2011 Norton Roadster at the British Motorcycle Owner's Club booth.  Nice bike.  Wish I could afford one!

Do You Ever Get Tired of Looking At Something For Too Long?




I got tired of looking at this green helmet I painted awhile back so I decided to add some 1-Shot Sublime Green stripes to it to liven it up a bit.
