Ultimate Air Affair - Part 4
Day 4 featured the inaugural Ultimate Air Affair Car and Motorcycle Show. The classes ended on day 3, which enabled the instructors to finish the projects they started earlier in the program or had yet to start. A 2008 van was donated by Chrysler for the Ultimate Air Affair and had a film strip graphic design painted on its’ sides and tailgate compliments of Dean Loucks and Kindig (ASET’s painter). The filmstrip had numerous individual cells that were airbrushed with classic movie scenes by the instructors. Many of the instructors had to wait for day 4 to paint the cells on the van. While the artists airbrushed inside, there was a world class car and cycle show going on outside. ASET had the road closed to traffic and filled the boulevard and adjacent parking lots with custom vehicles. Many of the students from the 3 day workshop, stayed for day 4. The van was moved into the “VooDoo Swing Lounge” so the artists could work their magic while the attendees watched and asked questions. The day ended with all of the instructors having airbrushed their classic images onto the van which would eventually end up being displayed in Chrysler corporations’ 2007 SEMA show booth at Las Vegas.
All in all it was a great show and a win-win situation for both the artists and the students. The positive energy flowed in both directions with both sides benefiting from the good karma of the other. The good folks at ASET really know how to put on a first class event that reflects the quality of the people involved in the preparation and implementation of the 2007 Ultimate Air Affair.
