The skating HayDays of the 80´s

The Cubes wheels are back! - Skate Kids around Copenhagen has finally seen the light! - Large and soft 95A cubes on the boards. The look is cooler, the sound is better...


Working on a littte side project. Re painting a old 10" board and then mounting my NOS Lightwaight Tracker SXtrack - NOS red Tracker Copers - Nos 80´s Sims "The Wheel" etc. All the best parts from back then.

Colors or Black/White

After the PininFarina Post, I just thought how important it is that you do something you good at. Imagine that a pity it would have been if PininFarina haven´t given us those Beautiful, elegant and functional cars! So again! go ahead, do it - but a WARNING: if you don´t a the slightest clue about color matching please be careful, wrong color sync can cause headache to you and others, it may harm your surroundings and do a lot of damage to.

So, In doubt! - don´t....
Contact professionals....or use black or white...

BTW: Thanks for the comment Actionsoul

People ask - that is it with those colored glasses! -
I can only say, I have these L.A eyeworks in all different colors, and why!
I´ll tell you.
Sometimes you not the master of choosing and setting the colors. Sometime you are invited to places with all white walls, white funiture, and minimalistic white tiny deco stuff. White, white, clean, clean, and clean. ZZZZZZZzzzzz that´s so boring. BUT HEY! then you pull out your colored shades and they helps you through the night...

PininFarina All-Time hero

Some of you know what i´m talking about. When you see a car, and you suddenly have that OHH MY feeling... Your eyes are glued to the shapes and colors, and time stands still.
After a while when you start breeding again, and blood runs to the head, you think - I must have one of those, otherwise I´ll never sleep again... But in real life only a very few of us have one of those cars. So to make you sleep again, I can tell you, that those who have them, don´t really "have" them. They just take care of them - for a while....


PininFarina was capable to create and combine cars and colors, that gives us that amazing feeling. No matter of age, bagground or skin color. Thats why he´s deffenatly a ALL-TIME HERO..

Quote: PininFarina
It´s a matter of taste, a matter of proportion, a matter of good sence, a matter of harmony, a matter of balance between colours - something you have in your heart. Quote: PininFarina.

There´s light i the Harley Springer!

This is my old Harley-Davidson springer lamp. Honestly it has been packed away for some time now, mostly because I needed some space for other creative projects. Then i realized the photo I took over a year ago is rapidly spreading through the internet Blogs. Honestly I almost forgot I made that lamp - and that´s a shame.

Thanks to you Bloggers out there the lamp is back, now in company with my latest painting. Littel boy looking for gas - or some will say - enjoying the smell of gas etc...

Your´ll find the painting on my official web site here.

THE BIG CELEBRATION - HIP HIP HURRA

I´m doing this large scale painting for a new cool fashion store i Copenhagen.
It´s a modern version of the famost old Krøyer painting Hip Hip Hurra from 1888.
In my version of this great party painting, we see the guys are slightly more red in the faces. Why! - they have been saluting and drinking for 121 years now....

The new store´s called MENTOR - (Opening 1st of August in Hyskenstræde KBH)
They sell our all time favorite shoe - the beloved Chuck Tailor ALL*STAR - since 1908..

Cheers To Mentor, Chuck and Krøyer.

A closer look

Let´s take a closer look at my Panhead -

Key! - keychain!

In the keychain there´s small silver dog tag with the 4Cs engraved, it´s made by the famous Danish silver smith George Jensen! Once I worked for the George Jensen PR department, creating some creative creativityes! - After the job they gave me this little tag as a bonus! How Sweet!...

But what do you do with a tag like this!???? Put it in the keychain next to the dices - but what does it say!?

COMMITMENT - CAPABILITY - CREATIVITY - COURAGE...

Huuummmm!

1) COMMITMENT: Go to Vegas with all your money.
2) CAPABILITY: Find a sweet looking lady, filed with luck.

Let the dice rock n´roll - and when the snake eyes doesn´t appear!....

3) CREATIVITY: SHOUT AS LOUD as you can: LOOK UP - LOOK UP!...
4) COURAGE: Take your chips back - and look like nothing happened...

Know I´v featured Henrik´s Flathead Powered Monster before, but going through some pictures I remembered why I told Henrik that we should paint his gastank like this. The conversation was something like. Cay: "Hey Henrik - i´v seen this cool photo with a small gastank just like your new one." I can paint it very fast!... - You want that? Henrik replied: Sure...I like fast....

But honestly - there were 2 pictures.....
