Blaster was born in a small town in the Venice area, Italy, way back in the sixties. He still lives in the area, and runs a one man company. His passion for paint is great since his childhood, and naturally melted with his second great passion, cars and bikes. After graduating at the High School started to focus his attention to art history and painting, with special attention to the Japanese art. Art movements such as Dadaism, Futurismo, the Russian Avant-garde, as well as Jackson Pollock and the Action Painting. Grew up in a motor enviroment (his family was running an official cars and truck dealership) at a certain point of his life it was like natural to melt his two great passions, art and motors, into one single occupation and started to experiment custom painting. In the beginning it was the airbrush the main tool, but after havin’ practiced it for years he needed a new challenge. He still remember those super nice scrolls or double long parallel lines on cars from the few American cars and rods magazine he was able to get, pulled with that strange brush. That art was called “Pinstriping”. Every single line, every intricate design are expression of the feeling of that particular moment. That's why Blaster considers pinstriping as a form of "fineart", something like the Japanese calligraphy or the Action Painting. On one of those magazines there was this ad.: “How to stripe, book and brush 9,00 bucks!!” Then, no more than 10 minutes later a fax was ringing in LA with the first brush order. We are talking of the early ‘90s. And the whole thing started. It actually took 3 years to be able to get the right paint supplier in Europe and to start to handle properly that hell of a brush. Blaster was also so lucky to have the opportunity to meet masters like Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, with who he was in contact until his passing, and got a lot of inspiration and support from him. Big Daddy used to say: “Stripe with the heart” and this is one of the most important lessons. Striping is not a matter of just crossing lines in a nice way, it's the artist's life being transferred on a surface. Thousands of kilometres around Europe and some gallons of paint after, still now, every line is always like being the first job. Must pay lotsa respect to every object to be striped. Try to understand it and his proud owner. Make the bike or car or anything else better looking and his owner more proud. Blaster is still practicing his art, and the best line ever will be pulled tomorrow.
