I love it! Perfectly depicts the challenge title in every way. Plus brings back memories of the song itself which means that rocking daisy is right on! Well done!

    ill let you in on this since i already have told cleo..every drawing i do im gonna try to do a cameo of the "Funnie Flowers" in it. kinda like how Alfred Hitchcock and Stan Lee did in their movies. the challenge will be making it not conflict with the drawing that im doing..yeah thats gonna be a challenge..wink. thanks for the great review.

It looks like a lot of work went into this one. Just driving into the night with the stars shining bright. impressive flower girl with her guitar. It has rhythm and music for the soul.

    yeah..1 day's worth..this is on a 8x5" and us ink artist do move faster than those other art mediums. of course half century working with these pens help too..wink. thanks for the great review.

I like the symbolic of this piece. The little musician on the dash board and the dangling dice indicate that the driver is on the way to Vegas or some other famous place where music rules, stars care a plenty and gambling comes along with it. Going 70+ at night on that lonely road is probably not dangerous, especial when the radio plays illustrious tones. The drawing is perfect composed and framed.

    true going over 70 is not that dangerous but im surprised that no one caught that he is driving in the middle of the road straight down the dotted line and coming up to a hill not seeing whats coming..think that would be dangerous?? evil grin..im just surprised no one caught it..lol. thanks for the awesome review.

    Well, maybe... If something comes up that road its destiny... then the driver ends up in oblivion or the ditch. :o)

This is a great interpretation of the above stated. Love it! I love all the subtle details like the dash and controls yet there is a simplicity to it as well. The dice are are an awesome touch! Of course the flower is great as always!! Really great piece.

I am right there in that car. Lol. That's the effect this gives that you are in the picture viewing the scene. Nice touches of detail. Love the flower and that night sky. All well done, great imagery from headlights lighting the road ahead to dashboard perfect colour illumination of dials at night. A master at art ...rides again...

Comment from Cindy Sue Truman


Love, Love, Love this! Oh the memories that this song brought back. Blasting this at the Drive In Movies. Windows all fogged up, popcorn all over and the rest is my secret. Sure wish Drive Ins were still here today. Your use of colors and textures would make Meat Loaf extremely proud. Rock On little flower. Barely 17 and barely dressed. Where are the Groupies? Now I know you like challenges, I must think up one. You are so talented. Keep Believin~Cindy Sue

Comment from John Kotalac


Oh ya, looks great. Way to light a fire under me. Lmao . Your work is sweet. The old steering wheel and speedometer. Very cool touch with the funny flower. Nice sky, great work man. Another one gold. Lol, When I post mine I'm going to right it out like, pair of dice by the dashboard light. I was in the basement with Arden and it just popped up there. One of those when you just start laughing out of nowhere. And ya say haha that's pretty funny. I'm sure you have those quite often. It's so sweet. Also you should be getting the money for the Arden, Dylan artwork this week. Can't wait to frame and hang in his room. Peace brother, I hope that you and your family are staying safe. You friend John.
