The work of Steve Chaszeyka and the other artists featured in “American Stripes” normally is found on wheels, not walls.
For the next two months, though, it will be on display at the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown
“American Stripes” features pieces created by more than 30 artists who primarily are known for their customized paint jobs for vehicles.
Chaszeyka, who owns an airbrushing and pinstriping shop in New Middletown and runs a graphics academy that teaches aspiring pinstripers, selected artists who, like himself, push the envelope for what can be done.
“The artists I contacted, each one has a certain style and approach to this,” he said. “They’re not just hot rod pinstripers. They’re talent goes beyond car pinstriping and motorcycle pinstriping … I instructed them, ‘Don’t reinvent yourself, just do what you do,’ and these guys just went over the top.”
Suzanne Davis said her goal with the new book is “helping children to be able to live courageously, even though things don’t make sense . to be brave when circumstances are beyond their control.”
