Another Week
I met a new client today and started work on his very first tattoo, which will be a half outer sleeve. He is friends with two other clients of mine who both got lion tattoos. I was pretty happy with how this one Is turning out. A lady who I went to school with came…

Invites and Large Pieces
Yesterday I came so close to finishing the lion family piece. But alas I think I need another hour with it. I added more mane up top because the client said the lion looked like he had a mullet…and he was right. Looks better now. Last week I made more progress on the horror movie…
Bronson and Pain
This was a fun hand tattoo I got to do last week. I am curious to see how it will look after it is healed since hand tattoos are known for fading a lot during the healing process. I spent an entire session on the lion family tattoo just adding mane from the daddy lion…

Rawwrrr!
Look at that big ole cat! I got in session number two and was able to get the rest of him finished in just under 3 hours. My poor client was hurting for certain! I think I primarily used a 17 curved bug pin magnum and my four shades of Empire whitewash inks. In our…
Sleeves and a Foot
I did a colorful peacock feather on the foot of a client who I last tattooed 18 years ago. Feet are painful. She did good but I could tell she was gritting her teeth. I finished up the Hawk/tree/soldier sleeve with some cloud fill and a wash of color up top. He’s going to come…
