This is a short presentation of DaveArt and the artist behind, David Gunnarsson.
David grew up on the countryside in the south of Sweden. His biggest interest and passion all his life has been to paint. David also loves hockey and started to paint masks when he was a young teenager.
When he was 20 years old he was a full time professional mask artist. His one and only goal was to reach the NHL and paint for NHL goalies.
Today David has worked with DaveArt for soon 30 years.
DaveArt is today BY FAR the biggest paint company in the NHL.
DaveArt is born to paint NHL masks. David creates his schedule year after year after the NHL schedule.
Let’s tell you a bit how DaveArt works and what DaveArt can do for you.
When you work with DaveArt you are a member of the DaveArt Family and David will always take care of you as a family member.
David will always work his ass off for you with 100% passion and 100% loyalty.
A mask paint from DaveArt is not just a paint. It is a DaveArt paint.
A creation built on the DaveArt X-Factor, the very same which has conquered the hockey world. It is a creation filled with personality, charisma, passion and storytelling.
First of all and the most important when it comes to painting masks is CREATIVITY.
DaveArt is built on the insane creativity of David Gunnarsson. The gift to always come up with new and unique design ideas, day in day out, year after year.
Another important thing is the gift to be able to create STORYTELLING on the masks.
When you work with DaveArt you can always trust in DaveArt´s extreme experience.
You can always relax and never need to worry about your masks.
David´s grandfather was a farmer, and today David lives with his family at the very same farm he grew up at. David´s grandpa´s old barn is today transformed into a top modern paint studio.
DaveArt is the by far fastest paint company in the hockey business.
No other paint company are even close to the service of DaveArt.
For DaveArt, the equipment manager and the team are the bosses. DaveArt never does anything without green light from the equipment manager.
This is very important. The goalie will never get in any trouble with the team.
DaveArt is the ONLY paint company with pro masks in stock, ready to start immediately.
DaveArt works closely with ALL mask companies, such as Bauer, Vaughn, CCM etc…
When a goalie works with DaveArt, the goalie will feel like having his own paint studio working for him only.
DaveArt is the ONLY mask painting company having close contact with EVERY NHL organization.
DaveArt is the ONLY painting company visiting the NHL equipment managers meetings in USA every year to meet and connect with EVERY NHL organization.
DaveArt is the ONLY painting company the NHL office use when they need PR masks painted for different kinds of events.
DaveArt is the ONLY painting company with masks on display in the official NHL store on Manhattan.
DaveArt is the ONLY painting company that can create and deliver new painted masks in just a few days. No other painting companies are even close to this speed.
At DaveArt there is only one artist, David, doing all the creative work. Designs as well as paintings. David does it all and doesn’t need rely on any other designers.
This means DaveArt is 100% effective and flexible.
DaveArt is the ONLY painting company working ONLY with pro goalies. To make sure the pro goalies get the best and fastest service.
DaveArt doesn’t paint any other stuff, like motorcycles or cars or whatever. ALL focus and priority is on the pro goalies.
David works in his paint barn on the farm where he lives. No time consuming traveling.
DaveArt is the ONLY painting company with THREE persons working full time. David does all the painting, while the other two persons work full time with all the work around. This means David can focus on the design and paint work.
It is super easy to order. Just contact David and his creativity starts to work for you. If you have design ideas just tell them to David and he will brainstorm and make a sketch for you. If you need help with ideas for the design David is ready to help you.
First David does a sketch for you to look at. When you are happy with the design, David also sends the sketch to the equipment manager and the NHL office for approval.
Every mask is like a story book, and David’s goal is to climb into the goalie’s mind and create the mask story he wants to tell.
David’s role model as a painter is a chameleon… It may sound strange… But just as chameleons can change their colors when the colors around them change, David wants to be as flexible as an artist so he can paint whatever style and theme the keeper wants…
When the goalie works with DaveArt he can choose whatever theme and style he wants. Versatility is extremely important for David as an artist, and he started in a young age to practice to be as good as possible to paint ANYTHING.
It doesn’t matter what style the goalie wants, David can paint it all: photo realistic portraits, classic, modern, cartoon, horror, 3-D, 2-D classic etc…
When the mask is finished DaveArt sends a video of the mask to the goalie. After his approval the same video is sent to the equipment manager and the NHL office. After that the mask is sent to the mask company and they deliver it to the team.
DaveArt has a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
DaveArt only posts pics of the finished mask after checking with the goalie and team first.
The goalie can always trust DaveArt. DaveArt stands for long term relations, not short term. All communication between DaveArt and the goalie stays between DaveArt and the goalie. As we said, DaveArt Family.
There is a long list of different cool extra super FX the goalie can choose to his mask.
Every mask is presented on DaveArt’s social media pages with more than 100.000 followers. Very important for the goalies’ branding.
Every mask David paints is 100% unique. No replicas.
David gets the question very often from fans wanting to order a replica of a certain pro mask. David does not do it, in respect to the goalie, the goalie must know his mask is THE one and only.
David will always work hard for YOU!
