Just Having Fun!

I'm gonna scare away my female clientele!

So my lovely girlfriend said that if I keep doing all of this pseudo-demonic, manly-man, boy tattoo designs... I'll scare away all of my potential female clientele. And it's a fact that women get tattooed more-so than men these days. So to all the ladies out there who would like to see me create more dainty, feminine designs... I got y'all next round. In the mean time... here's a fucking Reaper.

Stress-free Flash Sessions

I just went at this sheet and had fun. I've been working on large scale pieces lately, so not much to show on the jammy jam tip. Just trying to get my art and convention preparation together. Hopefully I can update with some fire this week!

Today's Fun Stuff...

So my friend Carla came through for a fun Gypsy on her inner arm. And I finally got around to finishing some new (more serious) flash.

Hannya's are fun. Straight up.

Had fun jamming on this one. He's gonna eventually tie in more Japanese stuff. The three-eyed Tiger and lotus is on this arm as well, high up. This was a blast.


I also finished up a quick sheet of flash. I like doing these pseudo-traditional flames on stuff... so I said fuck it, and made a whole page with it implemented somehow. I had a nifty time with it.

The day isn't over YET!

Let's squeeze one more in! Late Night - More drawing. Finished this guy. My take on those old traditional devils, brah. Tried to make as non-greaser as possible. Had fun with it.

Back Aches - Still Productive

So my back ached so bad I just couldn't go through with the day today. I needed to catch some much needed rest. I work 6 days a week at nine to twelve hours a piece. That's 60 hours a week hunched over doodling on someone's body. It takes a toll on you, and today I had enough. But even at home trying to relax, I still wind up having to make something. Here's today's endeavor. Hurray for drawing on the floor!

It's an Eaglepanthersharktigerpython. Oh and by the way, those are supposed to be piss finger waves. Yes, piss as in urine.

Slow Day, Confrontation, Fun Art

What a day today has been! A new shop opened up directly across the street from us today... inside a hair salon, on the same level... hell, a few feet away from a barber chair. The scratchers that work there came into our shop not to long ago SMOKING A CIGARRETTE IN OUR LOBBY! Needless to say, I was bored and ventured to their new establishment... after I spoke my mind, we were told to leave. And we did. But the message was sent loud and clear - We are legitimate tattooers doing rock solid work, and we won't stand for this industry to be screwed and exploited by hackjobs such as them. I can't stand and watch food get taken off of my girlfriend and forthcoming child's table because these guys are 100 feet from us giving people Hepatitis.

On another note... I did this post-angry encounter:

Pro-Duck-Tive

A new painting, and I finished some skulls. Stoked.

New Painting and a healed Tatty...

I finished up a piece I made for Soba at Workhorse Irons. The dude went above and beyond my expectations on retuning (more like rebuilding) my machine for me, so I figured I'd show my appreciation and send him a painting for the good work. Here it is...


I also was able to get a healed photo of my friends geisha I did on his arm.

Inspirational Bedlam

I'm armed with a shit ton of motivation. There will be mad amounts of paintings cranked out. these are the first of the wave....

Finishing the week off right.

Jeff Money came through and once again, we had a blast.

The truth is in the veil...

Ravens and Roses

Here's what's new!

Sharqweek.

Some script jammers and a shark bursting out of an s-cut. Holla!

Jeff Money = The Man!

Jeff came through and we finally got to do these daggers we've been talking about for over 6 months. Stoked on how they came out. Thanks again Jeff!

New Print, New Tatty

Aside from upside down crosses and a paragraph of text, I got to do a little pro-Canadian jammer and finished the new print I will start shipping next Wednesday. I'm excited.

Snakes and Eagles

Good, steady day...

Wade came through and I hooked him up with a butcher/chef inspired piece. It's a cut diagram of a Pig and a Cow with their Latin names. They're side by side and were super fun to do. Thanks Wade!
Alex also came to town to do some antiquing with his wife Nikki. It was a pleasure seeing him and he left with this piece that I whipped up last night.

All in all, a good day. I'm dog tired and can't wait to get home.
