Dennis is truly one of the pioneers of Kustom painting and airbrushing. As a naturally artistic kid, back in the 70s he started out with his first airbrush. After a few years he went to work airbrushing shirts at the Rats Hole for the late Karl Smith, founder of the famous Rats Hole Chopper Show in Daytona Beach Florida. After leaving the Rat Pack Dennis opened up his own shop and continued airbrushing as well as becoming very adept with the spraygun and applying kustom finishes. From bare metal surfaces right up to goldleaf application, pinstriping and brush lettering, Dennis Mathewson is a certified PPG MASTER Painter. Over the years, having fine tuned his natural artistic abilities and multifaceted talents to ”create more than imitate”. He has gained fame worldwide for his unique island inspired artwork style, knowledge and vibrant use of color and highly desired custom mixed colors which led him to design a complete signature series line of paint called, “Hawaiian Hues” manufactured by The ALSA Corp. Dennis has also been a master instructor for over 20 years, sharing his knowledge of airbrushing and kustom painting, filling classes and workshops with students eager to learn and be inspired by Dennis. He has held private airbrush and custom painting workshops and has toured and taught for Aset Iwata in the U.S. and in Japan at the Iwata factory in Yokohama as well as the ALSA corportion traveling workshops worldwide. Making numerous appearances at shows and events globally and keeping up on the latest trends and custom finishes in the industry. When he is not traveling or painting his brains out at his busy Cosmic Airbrush shop in Honolulu, he is writing monthly articles and informative step by stories of his work that are published in magazines like; Auto Art,AutoGraphics, Airbrush Action, AB magazine, P&K graphics Airbrush Art & Action (Europe) and locally in Hawaii, Hawaiian Choppers Magazine. As the founder and CEO of Cosmic Airbrush, he and his talented staff keep their hands full of constant work. You will see Dennis working long hours to keep up with the workload and to keep things running smoothly, but in this spare time, if there is any, he will make time for his family and carving tikis at his carving station he has set up at home. Nothing makes him happier than to knock out a 4 foot tall tiki on a Sunday afternoon.
