Finally have some time to post . I spent Friday at the show in Toronto, it sure wasn't very busy. I think everybody went to Detroit . Unfortunately this year both shows ended up on the same weekend. I striped up a few trays they had there, met Herb Martinez {from California} and asked him why he "forgot" to add Canada in his new book Pinstripe Planet. I told him the next book better include a few stripers from up here. They didn't have an auction, but they are gonna try for next year. Craig{Thrall Pinstripes} from the Cobourg area did a good job setting it all up, they had lots of stuff to stripe ,just not a lot of people . I wasn't there Sat & Sun so maybe they were better.
Here'a a few things I did there, a helmet for a girl that drives a racer, a tin tray, and the lettering is on a trunk lid they brought in, all the stripers that showed up were supposed to put something on it. Craig is going to send me a pic of the finished piece and I'll post it when I get it. They plan on doing one every year.
Hey Rollie! yea..everyone took turns on the trunk...i did the new sublime green on the top of the lid....sat and sunday were dead....sat it was just Herb, Craig and I painting..it was a good experience..i'll say that! thanks for all the pointers and help over the weekend..
