Halak´s new Islanders mask transforms into a lighthouse…💡

As the true New York Islanders mask it is, Jaroslav Halak´s new Islanders bucket transforms into a real lighthouse, glowing in the dark helping the ships at the ocean⛵️.

The clean lines creates the crisp look and makes it a 100% Islanders mask. On each side you will find Thor to give Anders great powers.

The Zombie Fryer is here

Let us present…: The Zombie Fryer! The most effective weapon against zombies!

Kevin Poulin wanted something really, really scary on his new New York Islanders mask… Something very badass with zombies… something never done before… I started to think… And this idea emerged in my brain… How about transform the whole mask into Old Sparky….

As you know, the only way to stop a zombie is to kill the brain… and here is when Old Sparky can be in handy… Look closely on the chin of the mask, there you find the power switch, and it is turned on… Holy smokes, even the eye of the zombie pops out…

I just love to come up with new ideas day in day out and play with the airbrush :) Fantasy is my biggest passion… But I do not think zombies love this idea….

Kevin, love to be your painter, it is so creative! :)

As usual the design is packed with all the DAVEART trademark effects and all kind of details to be discovered all of the mask…

Nilsson's favorite movie...

Anders Nilsson has a favorite movie, and he wanted that on his mask. The movie is The Escape from Alcatraz, and I love that movie too, I've seen it so many times. I started to brainstorm how to build the design, and Anders gave me thumbs up directly and I started to paint. Clint Eastwood on the side carving out from the wall, and in the background you see the silhouette of the island giving cool depth to the design.

The rest of the design is built on Islanders' cool logos and colors, with strong colors, giving the design a sweet old school feeling. And just as usual the design is pumped with details, most of them you need to see the mask live to discover.

Love to work with you Anders!

You're all welcome to check out Anders' Islanders mask in the mask gallery.

Kevin Poulin’s new artwork built in silver

Today we have the pleasure to present the New York Islanders keeper Kevin Poulin’s new mask painting. Kevin contacted me early about his new mask look, he wanted something really new...a totally unique look. He was sure what kind of theme he wanted. I spent the summer brainstorming and sketching. A design plan was set.

I used lots and lots of silver in the design, the whole upper part is silver tones, and together with the Islanders orange tones at the bottom it creates a totally unique look from a distance. And when you come closer you discover a new look in front of your eyes and a new design is created in silver and with a lot of speed.

Love to be your painter Kevin!

Check out Kevin’s Islanders mask in the mask gallery and on Facebook. Thank you all for your interest in my paint.

Nilsson´s glittering continuation

I have painted for Anders Nilsson for many years and it is always so fun. Anders was so happy with his previous Islanders mask I created for him, so for this design he wanted it to be a clean continuation. It´s the same basic design that plays with the Islanders logos, but with a new base color and also other details. The DAVEART XXFX DiamondGlitter makes the design elements pop, and all over the mask there are hidden details to be discovered when you come closer and closer to the mask.

Welcome to check out Anders Nilsson´s Islanders mask in the MaskGallery. Thank you.

DiPietro´s new mask a tribute to his father and USA

It is so incredibly exciting to create the mask artworks for my friend, the New York Islanders keeper Rick DiPietro. Once again the theme of the mask is military to honor his father who was a helicopter pilot in the Vietnam war.

And once again we wanted to do something totally new, think outside the box, but with the same theme. This design concept I came up with and sketched when I sat at Heathrow airport waiting for my plane.

The design is a so called 2 designs in 1, and also a storyteller-design. The design is built on two lines, the orange and blue lines inspired from the white Islanders jersey. I painted them winding around the mask, almost like a flag flying in the wind, it gives a very cool design when you look at the mask from a distance. And I added white stars in the blue to give a feeling of the US flag. Then, when you come closer you will discover all the details and a new design is created in front of your eyes.

On one side the helicopter again is in focus, this time I painted it in a sketchy documentary style. I love to paint in new styles, never stand still. Rick also wanted his dog in the design, I painted the dog as a soldier on the other side.

Then all over the mask I created a detailed map of artworks as a tribute to USA. I love to do a lot of research for every mask. It is all painted in that sketchy style. I love to create lots and lots of details, here on this mask you will find famous statues, soldiers, action shots, even parts of the Memorial Wall and much much more. On the chin is Rick´s own logo I created for him a couple of years ago.

I remember when I made the first mask for Rick some years ago. I wanted to do the design in a totally new way, something never done before. Rick was so happy when he got it. When we presented it my mailbox almost exploded of all the mails I got, I was so happy. And it has been the same after every new design I have made for Rick.

Glitter on Nilsson´s new Islanders mask

Today we have the pleasure to present Anders Nilsson´s new New York Islanders mask. I have painted for Anders for many years, and we have talked many times about doing a lot of glitter on his mask. Now on his first NHL mask we felt it was time. Anders wanted a graphic and clean design with a lot of white, and the Islanders logo in a cool pattern all over the mask.

I put together a design concept for him and he immediately gave me thumbs up, and I created this in the middle of the hot summer. The painted cage is a thing I and Anders have made on many of his masks.

Welcome to check out the mask in the mask gallery, on Facebook or in the App. Thanks.

Rick DiPietro's latest artwork

It's always so exciting to create Rick DiPietro's mask designs with all details and messages, I really love it! It's also a great honor for me. This design is a continuation of the previous masks that I have created, and here we have worked more with a white bottom tone, with white parts in the camo pattern in Islanders colors.

The motifs on the sides with war theme are mixes of techniques with classic airbrush and old school oil paint tech. The entire design is a discovery in detail work. The whole creates a mask design that is a tribute to Rick's father who was a helicopter pilot in Vietnam.

Check out Rick DiPietro's Islanders mask in the mask gallery and on Facebook where you also can comment on it. But the place where the masks can be seen first is the DAVEART App for iPhone and Android.

Lawson's different Islanders design

Nathan Lawson had a quite clear picture of how he wanted his new Islanders mask. He wanted a tractor with an old barn behind, and his dog, and also a nice yacht cruising on the waves describing New York in summer time. A very different and fun painting assignment I thought before I got started to paint this mask that really breathes New York Islanders to a 100%, and in the same time is completely unique for Nathan.

Check out Nathan Lawson's New York Islanders mask in the mask gallery or on our popular Facebook page, now "liked" by more than 4000 people...! Or in the DAVEART App for iPhone and Android of course...

Koskinen's new clean Islanders design

Today we have the pleasure to present the New York Islanders keeper Mikko Koskinen's latest mask art. Mikko and I talked back and forth about ideas different design ideas for his new mask design. I got the idea how we could create stylish graphics with Islanders' cool logo, and graphic lines that transform into flying 3-D pennants creating a design in the design.

All together a design with strong contrasts with the color white as the magic link. Check it out in the mask gallery or on Facebook.

Poulin pays tribute to legends

Kevin Poulin had the genius idea to pay tribute to the two legendary Islanders players Billy Smith and Mike Bossy, and around this create a classic old school design. I made a sketch for Kevin, and since he liked it was just to get started. One side of the mask is devoted to the two legends, painted in blue tints with orange glow it really breathes Islanders, just like the rest of the design that is tied together with graphic lines and logos. Check out Kevin Poulin's New York Islanders mask in the mask galllery and on our Facebook page.

Camo in Islanders colors on DiPietro's new mask design

It's always a great honor to create the NHL star Rick Dipietro's mask creations. Rick wants much details, and that's exactly what I love to paint. The design is a continuation of his previous success designs that I had the pleasure to create, and it's a tribute to his father who was helicopter pilot in the Vietnam war.

On the sides you see views of helicopters together with other details from the same theme, and in the bottom a camoflage theme created in the Islanders colors. Check out Rick DiPietro's New York Islanders mask yourself in the mask gallery and on Facebook!
