36 Ford Scratchboard

Kevin Anderson owns this amazing 36 Ford.  It is one of my favorite models of cars, meaning a lot considering I'm a Mopar man.  It is so smooth looking, I have been wanting to do something with it for awhile now.  They have such great body lines and look good as tail draggers or not.  Just one more thing to add to my bucket list.  It is done 9"x12".  If he doesn't see it here first, he may be suprised to see it at a show coming up that I'll be vending my art at.  I always like to surprise people with custom art of their own vehicle.  Hope you enjoy it.  Nate Grice

I'll be vending at Torque Fest this year coming up in May from the 3rd - 5th.  Come to Iowa and check it out.  Its a great show!!!

Erie fireman commission pencil drawing

Here is my latest pencil drawing.  I was contacted to do a commission of a firefighter and his dog in front of a burning house.  It was left to me to do the rest.  She wanted me to incorporate an American flag if possible, so I made his helmet one.  It came out great.  I have never tried drawing fire before with pencil and to make it all work together, took time.  I have about 30 hours in this drawing.  There are many small details that can be seen after studying it.  I had fun doing this one.  This is one of my "firefighter" drawings I have been commissioned to do.  Check out my previous ones on older blog posts.  Nate Grice
Thanks Ericka!!
