I knew about the work of Fitto (real name Martin Bouchard) long before I started, 15 years ago, to build my 1st bike as a professional builder . At that time, I saw first his psychedelic creations on fellow builder Mitch Bergeron bikes and then on many more other radical custom bikes from top builders. And each time, my reaction was wow, wow, wow! Each painter has a different style, and the one of Fitto is absolutely unique. But more than this, armed only with an airbrush, his execution of themes is the most realistic any human being can produce . And I really think that nobody will ever surpass him. Even my expensive high resolution digital camera cannot catch all details you can see on his paintings. Anti-conformiste, anti commercial and proud to be, enemy of computer design (because he was born with one in his brain), Fitto is the king of psycho paint. Don’t ask him about his fantasies, dreams or nightmares. Just look at his artwork. Fitto and me we had many missed opportunities to work together because he used to hate to leave his studio in Quebec and my shop is in South Florida. So, you had to ship your bike parts and my hectic life didn’t always give me such shipping time. But the good news is that while I was in Canada 2 weeks ago, he told me that he will now accept to travel to his clients, but only if your project is as unconventional, radical and excellent as is his airbrush work. For a free trip to his world, go to: Fitto Airbrush. Warning: you could get high.. .

OMG. The guy a crazy genius!
This guy Fitto does some unbelievably talented painting. Where does he work out of? I hope I can afford to have him paint my bike someday.

Not in my style, but airbrush work perfect.
I am always captivated when i look at his work.It is a kind of controlled chaos.symetry is perfect.I have never met him but as a fellow painter in the industry I admire his work and hold him in high esteem.On the right style of bike his artwork makes the bike untouchable at shows.
he is certainly one of the best in the business.there are some painters like mike learn and robert pradke who are among the top crop of this industry.
Un travail absolument fantastique et une oeuvre pleine !
Un artiste à l’état pur !
Enjoy looking at fabulous painters. Have seen at dealer shows and at easyriders shows.
Settles down to taste,. Mines very simpl;e:
Bikes are black
Cars are white
Trucks are red
I found his web site about 4 years ago. There is no one like this guy. Mike Learn is great with graphics, Perewitz is the Master of Flames, but Fitto is in a league of his own with the Gothic style airbrushing. I would truly hate to see what this guy’s nightmares are like…
He did a V-rod paint set that has to be seen to be believed!
