I always learn so very much from your tutorials, Denny. You are a very generous and confident man. It is pure joy for me to witness such humility (just like Norman Rockwell) from you while you inspire me and many more whom you will never meet in person to improve their art skills and to strive harder. You are very necessary, my captain. I did mean to be sappy, but the Bible says, "Give honor to whom honor is due."

Original Post: MATT KENSETH T-SHIRT PHOTOSHOP

I have been in the art business for over 35 years give-or-take and I have made my share of mistakes and if I can help you all not to make the same ones, maybe, just maybe, it will be worth it all for me sounding like a "know-it-all". If I have "over-stepped", or you're tired of me, just tell me "enough is enough", OK?

I just thought today that I was going to put my "tow cents" in another way. Most of what we all post here is artwork that is pure enjoyment to each of us. I thought that I would post some artwork that was "born out of necessity". As some of you know, I spend four ten hour days a week doing artwork for NASCAR. Maybe some of you also might know that yesterday that the "Winston Cup Champion" was crowned yesterday. It was Matt Kenseth. He has been leading the points race from almost the start of the season. Even though the season isn't over yet, he enough points to claim the title. My jobs at Vanity Fair, where I work is to prepare artwork for on T-shirts. I have posted the "Championship" artwork that I think that is probably being printed today where I work, for Mondays are my days off. The first "post" is the front of the T-shirt, the second is the back.
