🚨 #DaveArtNewMaskAlert 🚨 ⚡️💙🔥

For Jon Gillies — Tampa Bay Lightning 2026 🥅⚡️

Clean. Sharp. Electric.

This mask is all about pure Lightning energy — bold blue bolts cutting through the design with raw power and speed. ⚡️

A tight, modern layout with that classic Tampa vibe, where the lightning strikes flow all around the mask in a smooth, high-voltage rhythm. 💙🔥

Simple at first glance… but packed with energy, motion, and attitude in every line.

Painted by hand. Driven by heart. 🎨❤️
Stories on masks. Fantasy unleashed.

Thank you Jon and Tampa 🙏⚡️💙

The Story of DaveArt

– a part of hockey history

David Gunnarsson, the artist behind DaveArt, has been painting as long as he can remember. Back then it was just a dream and his only real choice for a career.

Growing up in the countryside…his grandfather told him he would become a farmer and take over the family business. But David´s greatest passion was art, he painted all the time and when he didn’t paint he would brainstorm new paintings with his fantasy and creativity.
