The Harley 45" Mobilgas Bobber

I´m helping a friend these days with painting some old style inspired logo´s on his 45" gas and oil tank.


Base color.

A illustrator drawn logo i made, with 3B pencil on the back to transfer some guidelines, to the tank.

Pin Stripes only on the rear fender.

Finished hand painted Harley logo,

and freestyle Mobilgas Pegasus.

I really look forward to see this bike finished this spring. It´s has huge potentials to be one of the coolest Harley Bobbers on the streets of Copenhagen..

And i´ll for sure keep U updated.

LIFE

"Life beats down and crushes the Soul - and art reminds you that you have one."
Stella Adler.


That reminds me - that I better get back to the studio, and work....

The Secret.... shhhhhh

It happens that Peter Jackson and Mr. Spielberg is making a movie based on the comic book TinTin and The Secret of The Unicorn.

Premiere 2011 - So a little forecast is everything original Tin Tin art etc. will rise in value.

Properly also the interest in Old ships, sailor tattoo´s and ship paintings will reach new people!
What obvious is great news, cause great ol´ships, and ship paintings are way to neglected.


This is a painting i made - and a Ship Painting it is....

It´s up for sale - but hurry up!... the price will rice after the movie premiere... cause it´s called -

THE UNICORN....

See the painting, and more of my art stuff on the official site Here.

Influence

I Quoted Mr. Mark Twain in last Post: Naked people have little or no influence on society.


Mr. Twain is properly right! - And then again.....
I must say, some people have a very strong influence on important decisions when they are naked....

Jaguar SUPER 5

Not so many people are aware of Jaguar XJS interior
fits like a glove, in a Renault Super 5...

But it does!
And why do I know this kind of unimportant information concerning 2 cars from the 80th that most people happily forgotten all about....


Well! - I needed some new seats for my Renault 5 you see here -
and why not use a little "cat" skin to make it more cozy....


Now i just need to change the radio into a fireplace...

The City to Visit

My latest painting (Højbro Plads 1890-2010) is a scenery from Copenhagen, and having mentioned Copenhagen, I noticed this -

Copenhagen is #5 on the New York Times 2010 Where 2 Go list. great!
Congratulation to Cph...



Even Skt. Hans Torv/Skt. Hans square, AKA my front door, and my old bicycle in the corner there! is mentioned. Yeahhh Funky

In that occation I´ll show you an 2002 painting I made from the square.


The painting are enjoying itself in Switzerland these days, owned by a collector.


This is what New York Times wrights about our town.


5. Copenhagen

As thousands of environmentalists heckled world leaders in Copenhagen last month for the climate summit, a solitary unifying note could be heard amid the cacophony of discord: the Danish capital has already emerged as one of the world’s greenest — and maybe coolest — cities.

Copenhageners don’t simply preach the “progressive city” ethos, they live it. Long, flat urban thoroughfares are hemmed with bicycle paths where locals glide around the city, tourists saddle up on the free bikes that dot the city center, and fashion bloggers take notes on the latest cycle chic (see copenhagencyclechic.com). Over in the harbor district, a public bath at Osterbro, due to open in 2010, will complement the two swimming areas set off on Copenhagen’s inner harbor, a formerly polluted waterway recently transformed into the city’s summertime hub.

Away from all the modernism and the happy cyclists, cultural thrill-seekers are being coaxed to the once dangerous district of Norrebro, which has arguably become Copenhagen’s edgiest hub. A heady mix of hipsters, students and immigrants mingle in the cafes and galleries around the district’s focal square, Sankt Hans Torv, and the city’s young and excitable night owls can be found dancing in local clubs until the early hours. — Benji Lanyado

I can only say - saddle up and come visit us this summer.

Don´t forget to bring your camera...

Traveling Back in Time -

A new painting is on its way.

The motif I´m doing is a modern version of a old Paul Fischer painting
(Højbro Plads - Copenhagen) from 1890.
Its work on commission so the format has changed a little from the original.


This is the Original painting is from the Danish artist Paul Fischer 1860 - 1935.

Notice the building in the Back, no roof cause the building burned in 1886.




Before I started the painting I made a quick time travel back 100 year to the center of Copenhagen to do some research before I started up on the painting.

Then I discovered - Something just don´t change in our town..


The traffic is still heavy in the streets, just like today.


People are still getting tattooed


And we are still having a party when it´s possible....
That hasn´t changed for sure.


This square is Højbroplads Cph.
Same square the Fischer Painting are made on.
This photo is from 1918 and if you notice the tower on Christians Borg (one of the main buildings in Cph) it´s being rebuild after the fire i mentioned before in 1886


If you look at this picture i took yesterday, you can see they have not finished the work on the tower yet....


You know why?!


Cheers buddy...

Come Ooooon - you can Do It! One more and then we go back to work....
