I had the opportunity to visit with my good friend and mentor, Tim Peterson, in Spearfish, SD. He was the first to put a pinstriping brush in my hands and I owe him alot. He runs a one man sign shop and has no computers or plotters. All of his work is laid out by hand and either hand painted or hand carved. He is a true inspiration.

Old school values, wonderful shit, what a talent. Nice vacation shots too, any car looks better with some hand applied highlights.
Agreed with whiteline, awesome. Really cool that he has your first panel!! Very inspiring indeed...
Nice cone shove! I already like this guy because of the "Buy American" on his shovel. Awesome sign work too!
