Good taste & A Dragracing kid

A visit to my good friend Kasper Feldt ended up with something totally different as always!.

The set-up was a good lunch and a business talk about, bla bla bla, cars, bikes and chicks...Kasper is former set designer that today builds the most spectacular houses and interior in Copenhagen. If you have any interest in stuff like that check out Stil-Art.dk


How needs food! - Take a nap in Kaspers kitchen - Wake up - jump in the 356 - accelerate.. PS: Remember to open kitchen door...

Suddenly Kasper shows up with his little sons new "push" bike - and no doubt, that toy didn´t look cool in a super cool house, with cool stuff and white floors -

what to do!?!....

Custom Hell yeah! - in no time I repainted the push-bike, and added some freehand illustration, that probably will make the Kid will go baserk.... You asked for it Kasper....

- A BEAR and A SHOT...
Alfred´s new ride - the A´s BOMBER..


Machinegun helmet - Duck and cover...

Artists & Bicycle Art

Tour de France are running these days, or is it the increasing "Green-Planet" care! I don´t know....
But one thing for sure, there´s a huge focus on bicycles these days.

2 of the leading Contemporary Artist, Damien Hirst and Shephard Fairey (OBEY) has also been active decorating bicycles. If they ever had the bikes in there studios, I don´t know either. But this is the result then top of the Art-World meets state of the art - modern race bikes...

Damien Hirst Bike:

Damien Hirst Art: The asking price for "For the Love of God" skull was £50,000,000 ($100 million or 75 million euros).

Okay! - wonder what the Bike will cost then....

Shephard Fairey (OBEY) Bike:


Shephard Fairey (OBEY) art: Obama poster etc.

-

And back to the Cay Broendum bike studio! ....I´m not doing 1 bike but 3, you see - if one is good, 2 is better, and 3 is best.
What i´m going to with the bike trilogy is a good question! - I don´t know. But one things for sure, they will look cool, cooler, coolest and that´s reason enough to make them.

Wedensday Hang Out

A good classic Wedensday Hang Out session, at the KillerBobbers Garage Cph.

kick a tire, drink a beer -


As we said: If you paint you bike black it´s on the house, the cans are in the corner!


Most of the bikes we painted down there was even painted in the dark, some in rain and some when we were drunk. But the result (with mat black spray paint) can´t go wrong! - it´s just the perfect look for a Old bike. No doubt - very user friendly....

A small illustration I made for Allan´s Indian once...

a MARTINI - and a Rising Sun, please...

A couple a years ago I went with my good freind Adam, to Östereich on a Jeep camp. From Copenhagen to Faak am See, we passed the small city of Gemund where Ferdinad Porsche had his first small work i a old wooden garage. The garage is still open once i a while. Among all kind of Porsche speacialities, I only took photos of this awesome MARTINI painted 911 Porsche


Immediately I knew I had to paint something like that someday .

Unfortunately i don´t have the doe to buy a Porsche. So I took a old 10" Lucero Skateboard deck i´v had forever.


Repainted white, and masking tape.

Paint: Orange, light coral blue, and dark metallic Navy


As I was painting the deck, I remembered a old Porsche-Martini adverticement from the 70´s saying:

There are leaders and there are followers.
Life is really quite simple, isn´t it?


Always liked that line. Life is really quite simple, if you think that way - isn´t it?

(Had the Porsche Martini ad in my sketchbook for years, knowing that I wanted to use the text one day.)

Then I just had to find the right parts for the skateboard - and what better to visit Sean Goff ebay store as Sean rights:

I´ve been skating since ´76. Naver gave up. I now do this ebay shop full time, ( except when I´m away skating). I´m a skateboarder...... For life...

That´s the spirit...

And Sean got the parts, a lot of rare NOS. Thanks Sean

This is what project skateboard ended up with - hope you like it!

A MARTINI - and a Rising Sun, please...
