Well.. Here comes another one. The final color draft has been approved and I am ready to get started on number 3! Final draft and superimposed copy below. Went with the classic pinup girl again (Getting really good at these girls!), but they wanted some other elements included that aren't normally associated with the SAILOR JERRY brand of artwork. That slowed me down a bit, but I think this final design works really well.

Man!! Busy busy busy! Finished up SAILOR JERRY #2 (below) for Beer Sellar in Castleton over last weekend and I am set to meet the people at Whiskey Business this coming weekend. I am really catching a groove on these and the cool stuff is just flowing out of me.. I have never painted better than I am painting right now.
I do need to get my sketches and samples of the SJ stuff together in a neat, organized fashion so they can be easy reference for me when I meet these bar owners. That book is going to look a little empty right now, but at this pace, it is going to fill up quickly! Stay tuned.. T As I say goodbye to what was probably my most successful year so far, I am optimistic for the future. I made my rockstar dream happen, I was the KING of Irvington for a month, I finished Canal Square in great fashion, I began marketing myself , and I landed the current SAILOR JERRY gig. I managed to find time to start blogging weekly.. or bi-weekly.. or once a month.. whatever. I also believe I was instrumental in bringing my dad and brother back together after a 10 year feud... Not a bad year.
Now I am ready for the next step. In 2012, I am going to work even harder to get my work in front of as many people as I can. I will be entering the Irvington Halloween Contest again (and from now on). I think there even may be a reprise of 11-11-11 this summer. 2011 was definitely my year, but I can't get lazy basking in the glow- I have got to keep at it and keep creating. Yep- 2012 is gonna be a great year. T By the way, I snapped a shot of the current progress of SAILOR JERRY #2 on my way out the door today.. Below.. not a great shot, but aint my pinup girl sexy?? |
