Description
Original Size: 10" x 15" Medium: pencils & line marker*This is a piece revisit of the first "Bicycle & Model" I posted on my gallery, only the image size is much bigger for your viewing pleasure.
This was an original piece I did a few years back. I submitted it to a car/bike magazine for publication because I thought they might want to use it. The editors were so happy with this piece, they decided to print in it's actual size as a mini-poster and offered me a job as an official monthly contributor/writer for the magazine after they received lots of fan letters. I was with them for about four years, even after they sold the magazine to another publisher in 2001. Whether due to mishandling or mismanagement, the magazine eventually went out of business after an eight years run. It was a shame because at their peak they had a circulation of over 100,000 magazine sales per month, nationally and internationally. Pretty good for a small publication.
Afterwards, I was contacted by fans and readers that said they collected the magazine primarily for my artwork, which was truly a compliment.
