Meadville Pennsylvania and Amara Geffen's collaborative Art and Environment Initiative are making cool art from old signs

 These are pieces of a very long artwork you can scroll across here http://ceed.allegheny.edu/A&EI/read.html

Thanks to Jim for these photos!

Kellie the Kandystriper; damnit, this is some cool pinstriping! More than lines, there is some character (pun intended) in her art

"Van Go" the most talked about van in years, and Coby, the publisher and photographer of one of the few awesome independant magazines

 It's a 2 year project, and this year was it's debut. Not just the coolest van we'll see for years to come, it's also a travelling office so Coby can display and sell hie magazines and t-shirts at car shows

None of the woodwork inside has any right angles. It's very smooth and pleasant to contemplate it's looks and use

 I've got 3 or 4 of these, and they are worth the money, just terrific photography. The one on the lower left is made up of photos taken at Fremont dragstrip between 1960-1964 by his dad, and stuffed away in a showbox in his dad's garage for 40+ years. That is family treasure.

Coby was given the front AND back of the newest issue of Rod and Kulture. effing awesome! Run out and buy a copy quick, you'll love it, and the photos throughout the magazine are far better than anything I've taken, quite a few are professional photos taken in studios. Perfect work. Enjoy!

Bomonster had a great tent and display at the Beatnik Blowout

 These are just terrific, the pacifier and the flying eye just crack me up how apropos they are for kids in the custom car culture

These antenna balls in a upside down bubble visor helmet with a mounted antenna, Bomonster you've nailed the display method , bravo!

I've seen signs before of how you can pay, but the comic significance of cash makes me laugh! nCheck his site for the car shows he'll be displaying at, stop by, say hello. He's a cool guy to talk to. Or check his website for his art http://www.bomonster.com/ and buy a shirt or poster. 

Scott Moran made a great model of the worlds biggest dump truck

BOMONSTER is going to be at the Born Free Bike Shop htis Saturday, June 25th, and has these 3 new designs to sell on shirts and posters

My favorite first, the "Pan Heart" ... man that is a cool idea!
Next the Triumph on a dry lake... those cracks in the hard pan are dead on. I was at El Mirage last month and it lloks exactly like that.
The three newest pieces and BOMONSTER will be at the Born Free bike shop this Saturday June 25 (bornfreeshow.com). All traditional chopped bobber style BSA, Indian, Triumph, Harley owner, builder, painter bikes. The overhead Triumph will be offered as a poster and the other two are shirt designs. Get yours before they sell out, cause I'm thinking they will, and that pretty women will be getting the Pan Heart, car guys will go for the last one, and artists and dry lakers will go for the middle one.
