The latest Belladonna Trackers bike is in the works., Up next black shades and outlines plus some heavy scroll striping.

Rad bike. its going to be out of control when finished!

I was invited to follow along and paint a Hot Rod for Motorbörsgaraget on the Wheels Magazine Boat. I went with a gold stripe treatment to match the engine. Its a nice looking rod built with a personal touch (not to mention the striping) and is now up for sale ! Contact motorborsgaraget if interested..

Here´s some small things I helped out with before the holidays..the guitar is a take off of the lettering Art Adams has on his guitar.

Man that’s a nice clock …

Recently I did some custom text and 50’s inspired weirdie striping on these parts for a customized HD Night Rod.
The bike belongs to Janne who organizes the vintage drag racing meet, Blacksmith nats. Janne’s dedication to the sport is reflected in the text, as there are 1320ft (1/4 mile) in the length of a drag strip. with I’m Looking forward to seeing it all built up, should be sweet it is going to be all black and grey.

Check out this car I striped in the summer time. I painted outside the old studio on the dirt lot, when it was done we cruised to get some pics by these bungalows on the waterfront. Dang, summer sure was nice.. well so much for that.. haha

…Oh and check out the new zoom feature just click on the thumbnail and once it zooms in you can use the arrow keys to browse. It is in use in my portfolio now too, it really speeds things up

This was my first time striping one of these.. ! It goes on a really nice vintage Motta, you can see it built up >>here<<

So… I haven’t added much to the studio blog for a while, and it isn’t because I haven’t been painting.. quite the opposite. I have been getting a lot done and also have been lucky to move the studio to Motorbörsgaraget for which I am very thankful !

Now I am getting back to it and will be playing catch-up till I get to current my current work, sorry for the delay and thanks reading !

So here is a pinstriping job that I did a while back, this one was fun.. I was given freehands to do something in a 1960’s or hippy style to suit the chopper’s leather pannier, which was hand made by the bikes owner! It’s so cool -check out the embossed pot leaves !

Here is some side jobs from when I was down in Lund teaching the Pinstripe class.

First up I had a Shoebox from Magnus of the De Bops car club. Magnus had given is custom a nice flame job and all that was left was the outlines to make them pop.

After that Magnus had me letter the car name.

-that’s spanish for “shoebox”

The other project was for Fredrik who has Hanshifters Motorcycles in Skåne. He came up with a whole concept for the lettering and striping. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical but it turned out great in the end. The pinstripes in gold on the tank follow the style of crocker scalloping, this is then intertwined with the outline of a 1930’s Harley tank emblem which then creates the inner scallop of the teardrop which creates the background for the Handshifters logo! Not a bad idea, Check it out ..
