Looking for large artwork

[Old Bear]

I am looking for a high quality image suitable for printing, finished size to be 37.25" long by 17.25" high. For printing purposes, it needs to be 300 dpi or better. I know my way around Photoshop some, so it doesn't have to be a perfect match. I'm looking for something with a motorcycle theme. I thought a sunset/sunrise with a bagger or two riding off would look awesome, but I'm open to suggestions! I plan to overlay my MC colors on a corner as well, if I can make it look right. This will be mounted on the wall in my den above the fireplace, and it will be pretty much the first thing anyone visiting will see.

I figure having a whole bunch of eyeballs looking will work better than just mine! And I don't mind paying some for the actual print either. So anyone want to help with my quest?

CJ had a picture taken by his son of him riding off into the distant desert mountains. It was a great picture and might "fit your bill". Check with him to see if he would allow you to use it (and to see if you even like it).

Just a suggestion...

Not just distant desert mountains Greg, it was Monument Valley Utah. I mad eit into a motivational poster, but I still have the original somewhere on my hard drive.

hey OldBear, good luck with your search, I can relate to what you're wanting to do. We moved into a new house last December and I've been fixing up my garage, got a lot of automotive and motorcycle related signs on the walls and looked all over for some type of poster advertising the Vaquero, even talked to a few dealerships...NOTHING. pretty frustrating. I hope you find what you're looking for and am sure you will since you're not looking for brand specific.

Wow, there is an idea. Depending upon the dimensions and resolution, I could see that on a wall. If you don't mind sharing, CJ, take a look and see what you can find. Oh, for those that want to know the "rest of the story," the artwork will be on a Covert Art display box with my AR-15 in suppresed 300 Blackout cuddled inside.

That also looks good. Too bad they had to be all "H-D in your face" with it. Of course, I could Photoshop that out, even put my MC colors on the back!

I believe CJ is on his Nomad in that picture... so no photoshopping needed.

Now if you can get him to let you use it.

A little grease across the palm might help...

That was in reference to the "other" picture suggested. That was a stock photo with a guy and gal bikers with H-D jackets on.

Grease? Hey, I didn't know CJ was into such things, but I've got a tub of Valvoline in the garage if that's what he wants! Anything more kinky than that, we will have to call in Brad!

Great picture !!

[mdouglas71]

Dope Picture. My problem when it comes out to printing out posters and what not. Things always end up a lower resolution than what I want it to be. It's super disappointing..

Old Bear,
Here's one of my favorites that I have taken. This was a few summers ago riding through Kananaskis Country here in the Alberta Rockies.

Don't know about the resolution or if it would be suitable for what you want to do.

[canuckrider]

Here's another favourite from my photo library. It's a "selfie" taken by my late buddy Alberta Rider (AKA Warren) on one of our rallies near Creston, BC.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Using proper search guidelines, I think I found two images that I merged into one that I think will do nicely. Waiting on the print shop to say yay or nay.
