I designed the Cobra Den artwork and Tshirts for the CenTex Squadron, a Tshirt for the Yellow Rose Squadron and I'm working on nose art for the Dixie Wing for the P-51 currently. I'm also working on nose art that I'm painting on the Grissom Air Museum's C-47 in April, nose art and Tshirts for their B-17, as well as a new identity/logo for the Museum itself. You've probably seen some of that stuff pop up on WIX.

"Django" is from the gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, a moniker that I picked up back in my heavy swing dancing days. It seemed to fit as he was one of my guitar heroes and it kinda stuck. I play guitar in a rockabilly band as well.

I did an interview with Warbird Radio last week. Here's the link if anyone is interested.

The nose art looks great on the B-24.
We flew with them at Midland in 2006 when it was still Diamond Lil
(I think the repaint went down soon after).


Do you design Old V-8 Ford T-shirts?
