NHL sock Posters!

Katie Submitted some artwork pertaining to Hockey socks. Her poster focuses on each teams sock design. It's a pretty cool poster to have for a rec room and could even be considered appropriate for other parts of the house...May need additional approvals. This is a very nice and unique idea that makes something cool out of simple sock designs. Take a look at her website where you can even buy a whole NHL team poster was well as individual Pittsburgh Penguins Here.

Ottawa has been a surprise of the season so far although in recent weeks they've followed back to earth as well as in the standings, they did however beat the Lightning tonight 4-0 so maybe they aren't planning on falling out of the playoff push yet. Here is a sketch of Ottawas young star Defenseman Erik Karlsson

Goalie Mask #2: Buffalo Regals/Canisius

Well, finally I put everything together and here is the 2nd goalie mask I painted for Aaron Fanti who Plays for the Buffalo Regals 97 and will be playing for Canisius high school. Being new to airbrushing this was quite the challenge for me and I am more than pleased as how it came out, looks great on the ice. Here is a little photo montage of the final version and a photo slideshow of the process leading up to the final product.
