🎨 DaveArt NHL Mask Parade: Jake Oettinger Edition 🎨

A few of the masks I’ve created for Jake Oettinger through the years.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jake throughout his entire NHL career, and one thing has remained constant—the Otter is always ready for a new adventure. 🦦🎨

From Otter Liberty standing proud in New York to Ottzilla, the giant green super-powered Otter, plus eagles, stars, and countless other creative themes, every mask has taken the Otter character in a new direction. ⚡️🗽🦅💚

That’s what makes these projects so much fun. There’s always a new story, a new theme, and a new adventure waiting around the corner.

Can’t wait to paint the next Otter mask and continue the adventure! 🦦🚀🥅🎨

🎨 DaveArt NHL Mask Parade: Petr Mrázek Edition 🎨

A few of the masks I’ve had the pleasure of creating for Petr Mrázek through the years.

Looking at these masks side by side is a fun reminder of how many different directions goalie mask art can take. From hockey legends and personal tributes to cartoons, fantasy characters, humor, and classic storytelling, every mask has its own personality. 🎨🏒✨

One thing I’ve always enjoyed is exploring new ideas and styles. One mask might be serious and detailed, the next playful and colorful. Like a paint chameleon, I simply try to adapt to whatever story the goalie wants to tell. 🦎🎨

After 30 years, I’m still grateful that this job allows me to explore what feels like unlimited creativity through an endless variety of styles.

Thanks for all the great paint rides, Petr! 🚀🥅😄

🎨 DaveArt NHL Mask Parade: Filip Gustavsson Edition 🎨

A few of the masks I’ve created for Filip Gustavsson through the years.

From bold graffiti-inspired lettering and electric energy effects to personal tributes, hidden details, and plenty of Wild colors, these masks were all about attitude, personality, and storytelling. ⚡️🎨

One thing I always enjoyed with Filip’s masks was the mix of styles. A little bit of street art, a little bit of comic-book energy, and a lot of freedom to create something unique. 😎🔥

Looking back at them now, they feel like snapshots from different chapters of a fun creative journey.

Thanks for the paint rides, Filip! 🥅🎨🚀
