Here it is, Inaugeration Day, and, despite the USA swearing in what is sure to be the biggest political mistake in our history, I've managed to stay focused on my boomerang production instead of dwelling on our country's situation. It's only January 20th, and I've now completed a total of 5 Art boomerangs. That's one every 4 days on average, which is the same pace I closed out 2016 with. I sort of stuck to a bit more simplistic subject matter for the most recent two boomerangs, however. My friend, and fellow BoomSmith, Dave F. in Grants Pass, Oregon, requested a cartoon version of his newly acquired rescue kitty, Mr. Avery Ginger. This was an easy request to fulfill, for two reassons: 1. I enjoy doing Art for Dave because not only is he a friend, but he is also extremely reliable as a Customer, and 2. I love to do caricatures of animals, and I usually do them quickly. As you can see, the Mr. Avery Boomerang came out with absolutely no paint runs or other problems. It flies super-nice as well!
The other boomerang, one I just wrapped up today with, is what I call a "Word Art" genre boomerang of Elvis Presley. This one was a request by Gary Broadbent for his Next Door Neighbor, though, should they back out of buying it, I'm very confident I can easily sell it to someone else. Again, I painstakingly managed to avoid smudges or ink runs on this boomerang too.....It really IS a beautiful thing. Whereas the Mr. Avery Boomerang was crafted from 4mm 8 ply Aircraft grade Finnish Birch, this Elvis boomerang was made from Aircraft 3mm 6 ply. It too is a superior flying boomerang, both easy to toss, and master. Both boomerangs are real "Ego Boosters," having come out so flawless in the art execution.
