THE TATTOO SHOP MILANO

It has been my great pleasure to make this poster for the legendary Tattoo Shop in Milano.
The Tattoo Shop opened it's doors in 1985.
Master Daniele Carlotti and I go way back in friendship.
From the times when my existence transpired in the cellar of a biker coffeeshop in the Amsterdam red light district. I was an apprentice there, at a formerly famous tattoo studio.
The boys from Italy used to visit Amsterdam to stock up on fresh Ink and other things typical of that city. We the Dutchies, in turn visited Italy to enjoy it's many beauties and charms.
And so the rivers of Ink merged Internationally.
As you can imagine, much of that ink has flown under the bridges since those faraway days.
We've become expert Sailors and Captains. We've learned all about the Ruin of Man and woman. We've become riders on the storms, surviving many a ship wreck.
We've been counting our blessings, assessing the damage, consulting the stars and tracing our courses. Also we've all lost dear ones to the Art-of-Ruin, some friends who never made it to safe shores, their youth sadly swallowed by early sailors graves.
Yet here we are! Ink, Art, Adventure Ruin and Heart. The mix that makes for these more-than-one-life-time kind of friendships and inspires us to create, be it on canvas, paper, skin or soul. Navigators on the Oceans of Ink, we are walking-talking universal masterpieces.
Life, art, creation and destruction mark our pleasures and our pains, our ruins and our gains.

MAMACITAS
Our sexy Mamacitas are older than they look.
I have made them quite some years ago.
Mamacita nr1 is Carmencita.

(Hight 37cmPedestal width 18 cm)
She manifested herself in Barcelona in 2002.
Mamacita nr2 is Dolores.

(Hight 48cm Pedestal width 18 cm)
She was born in Legnano-Milano, Italy, around the same time.
She was all grown up by the time she arrived in Villeneuve sur Lot, France.
The trouble with these world wandering girls,
is that one never knows where they are actually from,
nor where they might be going.
These  fierce wooden women, will face the world 

standing on their own high heels.

DALA-ÄLG 

This charming King of the forest is available in any color.
Dala-Style decoration is optional.
These particular items are made for our local Älg-Park.
One day last summer, I didn't have any money to pay my ticket.
We snuck into the park anyway, with my friend Anita Dinamita.
We watched the elks, and they really made our day.
Älg is my favourite forest fellow this side of the planet.
(Asian side it's Bheins the Buffalo that I love best.)
We enjoyed ourselves so very much.
I wished to do something in return,
 towards our majestic, kind hearted forest friends.
That's how Dala-Älg was born.
Long live the beautiful, hansome, sexy Älgs
roaming the vast forests of Scandinavia.

Three Kings of the Forest

El Beso.
"El Alce cuando besa, es que besa de verdad.
Y a ningun Alce le interesa besar con frivolidad."
The Kiss.
The Moose when it kisses,it kisses for real.
A kiss of mere frivolity from Moose you can not steal.
