Hot Rod Jen Is Painting And Pinstriping A Skateboard Deck For The Great Texas Panel Jam At Dallas Autorama

Hot Rod Jen is back at it and we’re super excited that she’s starting up a new video series! I love checking out custom painting and pinstriping, and we’re going to get a taste of all of it on this small but rad project. In honor of the Great Texas Panel Jam, which is a side show of the Dallas Autorama this weekend, Jen is putting together this cool skateboard deck. Panel Jams are events that pinstripers and graphic painters often participate in together. They aren’t usually shows for the public, but rather smaller gatherings of artists who each bring a piece to the event and end up taking home one of them from a fellow artist.

Think Secret Santa and White Elephant gifts, but way cooler.

In some cases, as it is with the Texas Panel Jam, artists come to an event to paint together, show off their wares, and sell items to raise money for charity. They do this at lots of big hot rod and custom shows and that’s what is going on in Dallas this weekend.

Check out the video, which is the first in the series, and we’ll share the rest over the next few days.

Video Description:

Hi!

This video series will be covering my painting this skate deck up for the Great Texas Panel jam which is held at the Dallas Autorama. The deck will be auctioned off where all the proceeds will be donated to the Scottish Rite Hospital.

-The background of the board was painted be another artist years ago and then sent to me to do as i wished. I’m mortified to say I forget who that was and they did not sign the back, its a beautiful background for me to do my handy work, thank you whomever you are

-Part 1 will cover the silver leaf and lay out portion. blocking in the base colors and part 2 will cover everything else, the details, pinstriping and more.

-This was a struggle getting this video together my system kept freezing so this one might be a little rushed thru. Part 2 should have more real time mixed in.
