Members rickeyfro Posted March 1, 2012 Author Members Report Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) Then I did good bro, the guy I made this seat for always wears wingtips, they call him wingtip, so he asks for an Indian Larry seat and asks if I can do something different on the tips of the wings, colorwise, just to tie in his name. After staring at it for awhile I came up with this, I think its a lot more classy lookin. Second seat from left reminds me of my old pair of dancing shoes...hehehee.... Good work!!

Members DoubleC Posted March 1, 2012 Members Report Posted March 1, 2012 Heres a few seats Ive recently completed Your seats fascinate me Rickyfro. I always feel like Paul Harvey is just out of my peripheral vision range with the 'Rest of the Story.' Are all your seats commissioned first or do you make some in advance? Anyway your work is excellent. Cheryl Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl

Cheryl Thanks cheryl, about 75 percent of my seats are commissioned but as im sure youve found out , leatherworking is a bit addictive, so even when the pressure of keeping up with orders and deadlines does let up I find myself still tappin away. They all seem to sell and its alot more enjoyable for me to come up with the entire design. Rick Quote

Rick I heard that loud and clear......So can you tell me what the connection is I'm missing between the catholic church and motorcycles? LOL Salvador Dali used to always have a little man somewhere in his modern works, I guess it was supposed to be a father issue. I swear I've started looking at your seats from every angle, LOL looking for some form of, oh well whatever the catholics call that, my mind just went blank. All I can think of is stigmata and that's not it, sigh. anyway would love to hear the rest of the story when you have time. I'm working on a self-designed project today and having a blast!!!!!

Not so much a direct connection with the catholic church more just iconic images, alot of the west coast choppers bikes use alotta lowrider style street art and mexican and chicano influenced art and madonnas and rosaries and the like are used alot in that style Quote

Well I was hoping you'd have a long tortured tale to tell. I mean not really, I don't want you to feel tortured. This is getting worse by the second, LOL. I live in VT. and it was primarily settled by Italians I think. (I'm not from here). And you see a lot of Madonnas in the front yards surrounded by marble, which is what the Italians worked at. Actually I have a huge marble catholic church behind me that our apts share a parking lot with. They did a lot of restorative work this summer, and it truly is a sight to behold, LOL. I don't know anyone here with a motorcycle. You know Easterners, more apt to ride a bicycle and save the environment, fight big oil, and leap tall buildings in a single bound, LOL I hope I'm not getting myself in trouble here, I'm really just joking around not bashing anyone's cultural or geographical background. Anyway I love your seats. Cheryl Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl
