There were 16 artists in the class. We covered everything in our book and more. The goal is more than just to educate artists, for us, it's important to find people who are on the same page and want to be a part of the solution and NOT part of the problem. First you need to wake up and see that there is a problem and then tear it down bit by bit.</div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5DIOkOzt27gYO9P0464QVQvWRvYgroaqDHw3DGj8p5VMOiyd81f-6ieNHy4P7WyFpV0DhO5XcS4NMfqfLcmj-SZ8IHLnUqzlLOH9z1LegpN0m7W_IyV705IJczFYkZOv5ReK4bvCVJOD1/s1600/SAM_2879.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5DIOkOzt27gYO9P0464QVQvWRvYgroaqDHw3DGj8p5VMOiyd81f-6ieNHy4P7WyFpV0DhO5XcS4NMfqfLcmj-SZ8IHLnUqzlLOH9z1LegpN0m7W_IyV705IJczFYkZOv5ReK4bvCVJOD1/s400/SAM_2879.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673582560423774626" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px; " /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5DIOkOzt27gYO9P0464QVQvWRvYgroaqDHw3DGj8p5VMOiyd81f-6ieNHy4P7WyFpV0DhO5XcS4NMfqfLcmj-SZ8IHLnUqzlLOH9z1LegpN0m7W_IyV705IJczFYkZOv5ReK4bvCVJOD1/s1600/SAM_2879.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"></a>"HOW MANY OF YOU MAKE YOUR OWN NEEDLES?" Looks like 2 or so.. the rest?</div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify; ">The way to maintain quality control over every aspect of your tattooing is to understand every aspect of your tattooing. What you're actually doing when you step on the footswitch, when you put the needles in to the skin, the types of needles you are using, the quality of the pigment. Almost all tattoo supply companies don't care if you're doing good work with the products they sell. Almost all tattoo supply companies don't care if the products they sell are truly functional. Almost all tattoo supply companies don't understand what they are really selling. Almost all tattoo supply companies have never used the products they sell. Almost all artists trust these suppliers to supply them with quality functional products... these suppliers buy and sell products manufactured by people who do not tattoo, people who do not understand what functions are necessary in a tattoo machine. This is only a small part of the problem. Now, hopefully, these 16 students will not be taken by the hype in this unregulated business oriented supplier / artist relationship.</div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;

I tattooed her and her friend, both with a brush stroke look to it. Her friend's tattoo pic came out blurry so i'm not going to post it, she got an infinity symbol smaller with a painterly feel to it.....<br /><br />I also had an opportunity to work on Steve again for his polynesian 1/2 sleeve. This session was much shorter, traffic was bad so he came late and we didn't have time to finish the section. I was also having trouble with my shader so when I get to finish the section I'll be sure to post more.<br /><br /><br />This weeks update: Will be finishing the flag I started 2-3 weeks ago, as well as touching up a small part of the IRS badge I did a few weeks back as well. I'll post more soon.<br /><br />Now off to the drawing board... off to look for more freelance work so I can afford to pay my bills this winter.adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02454249265717014991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7891040038423083700.post-13991620298007111462011-10-26T13:44:00.000-07:002011-11-19T10:37:40.096-08:00Rant n RaveSo I know lately I've only been posting the tattoos Ive been doing, not so much going into detail like I did when I first started this blog. I've been in the mood to write lately, but when I go to do that I end up clamming up and just listed the tattoos I did and call it a day, until now. <br /><br />I have to say that this year I have changed alot, both mentally and physically. More than I thought actually. I've been doing alot of thinking, and reflecting on the long road that I have been on for so many years. It took me the entire 5 YEARS total that I have been apprenticing (including the shop I worked at before coming to work with Body Graphics) to realize that putting in your time really pays off. This is the main reason behind why I chose to take this long road with a very long apprenticeship. The thing that really interested me in tattooing wasn't just the artwork, it was the tradition being passed on from one person to another. It's definitely inspiring to finally feel like I am a part of it. Not just a player in the game. History history! So much has been lost especially being younger and coming into the tattoo community this late in the game. Anyone can just pick up a machine and start, but actually learning a piece of history is way more rewarding.<br /><br /><br />This year has forced me to be more self-reliant than I have ever been, work harder, live my life for me and not for anyone else. I guess it takes a horrible break-up and living away from home for a few months for stuff to sink in. I have been feeling like myself again, but not the "self" that I was a year ago... if that makes any sense at all. I feel like an equal at work, not at the bottom of the totem pole anymore, which makes me even more stoked to go to work now. I have more motivation now than I think I ever did, energy and a love for life. I've been working out, lost 15 lbs, started sketching ALOT more...feeling confident and not stressing over money money money. I want to go out and do things now, meet new people and enjoy my life.... I feel like most of college up until now I have been spending alot of time working my ass off (which is who I am) and not really enjoying life to the fullest. I worry constantly and focus on the small things instead of the big picture. Sometimes people can't see past the end of their nose.. I guess that was me for a while. Now I am proud to say that all the worrying, stressing, and anger stops today. I think all that has contributed to the fact that I haven't painted anything since I was in Hawaii. Well, I've done two paintings, but nothing noteworthy. This the longest I have gone without painting anything, and that's not good. I've recently been drawing a ton... trying to find my niche in the tattoo world, find a style that I like but at the same time get to experiment and try new things and be able to put in a clean tattoo that will stand the test of time. Of course all of that will come with time.... I have been thinking about my future more as well. Where do I want to be in 5, 10 years? I'm 27, and just started tattooing a little over a year now... what will 30 bring? 40? Do I want to still be in Philly? Will I be able to support myself on my own, start paying my student loans?? It's such a shame that so many people my age still have to live at home or with roommates, including myself. Fucking money is the devil. Then there's the question do I want a family, or give that up to travel for a few years? All these questions seem to be coming to the forefront and I guess I'm finally "grown up" enough to deal with them, not necessarily answer them just yet. It's all about moving forward, and take the next step.<br /><br />On a side note.....It's frustrating to see some people I know and have known just half-ass everything. Nothing you get in life is for free. Hard work = reward.....always. I guess I was just brought up that way. I think this is the reason why I have "lost" some friends over the years... whether it be to them moving on with their lives, starting families, moving away, etc. <br /><br />I guess you can call this a rant, or bitching, or whatever. <br /><br />So now, onto some tattoos....<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5qzAvaqxXyp-g4NOBbwuLSJH7ejrwbxAHPj0SPARa9PzSYI-OAWAunb3X2Xx80Tk_C-S8xpBP2iCXUpK5NPRpxIyCU6VD4DTF2Oxz_YbhmTowsGRRHXZYBbR_E6oSCpMRKloYC_3cjM0/s1600/PA250908.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5qzAvaqxXyp-g4NOBbwuLSJH7ejrwbxAHPj0SPARa9PzSYI-OAWAunb3X2Xx80Tk_C-S8xpBP2iCXUpK5NPRpxIyCU6VD4DTF2Oxz_YbhmTowsGRRHXZYBbR_E6oSCpMRKloYC_3cjM0/s400/PA250908.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>My first attempt at a skin cut.. really stoked on doing this one considering Halloween is right around the corner. I think I'm going to do some studies with this concept, this guy brought in a photo of exactly what he wanted, but we added some more detail in it since it was bigger. This time last year I did the hatchet tattoo as a Halloween Special. I can't wait to see this one healed. I'll be seeing him again soon, while I was tattooing him his wife decided to get one as well and we scheduled an appointment. <br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVu4iB9ZtWRH_HUU2kH41m7XBHATdfMUspX1h5p9vyWhrfzj562fUhl6DmmwJijrjUsq2ib_f2wfmdSKS0coHcj9Qzfn5InyTvW3kF9Pupv2Oz7EPGQ4fRg5_NafMADMIU3XdhyKAvHQY/s1600/PA240901.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVu4iB9ZtWRH_HUU2kH41m7XBHATdfMUspX1h5p9vyWhrfzj562fUhl6DmmwJijrjUsq2ib_f2wfmdSKS0coHcj9Qzfn5InyTvW3kF9Pupv2Oz7EPGQ4fRg5_NafMADMIU3XdhyKAvHQY/s320/PA240901.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Small walkin... nothing too small, always a challenge.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlku76_iEdqC5zYDHyOTYtne_-HLISjROZNUV0I5-vVE8ucBK7HPQ9duY7WRNmxYPhKoWk-aNAuCeGfmVHsnv_a6hItpndW-ezAqFt1wdb9ggWRAbgsuBZx64LE_Mr2t7hdrHHlAnHGW4/s1600/PA240906.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlku76_iEdqC5zYDHyOTYtne_-HLISjROZNUV0I5-vVE8ucBK7HPQ9duY7WRNmxYPhKoWk-aNAuCeGfmVHsnv_a6hItpndW-ezAqFt1wdb9ggWRAbgsuBZx64LE_Mr2t7hdrHHlAnHGW4/s400/PA240906.JPG" width="300" /></a></div> This is a client of both me and my coworker ... he hit me up to do some lettering on him, bigger than I usually work, but he agreed to let me do it in two sessions...

My coworker was booked up, so its either do it, or send him out the door. This is the biggest walkin I have done so far, and with some sketching and chatting with others to get their opinion I felt confident to start this one. Since he had limited time we did what we could and I'm going to see him in two weeks.

Very excited for this weekend... heading to Vegas for the very first time!<br /><br />This one was a walkin done in NJ, this is a version of her husband's badge... who has since passed on. Definitely a challenge, lots of gold and blue. Got to experiment with color and another challenge was all that lettering, some of which is really small! Looking back of course there's a few things I would have changed/done differently, however she was very happy with it and I got to do a badge. I asked her to come in when it's healed so I can see how the blue turned out and put some more highlights in there. Really cool lady, hope to see her back soon.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRgWCeRWzl7ML-DTrnQSY5N4n235UxX4Fg48R4wf8yA35W-z-tu21fIWxQczsWLjhI0-zQ43F2CUsk6ba96PCj1_b5YoS6gFAceLvLKj9g92mw1anN697M_GhssvQ49dUznmOrrGO2fFU/s1600/P9280850.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRgWCeRWzl7ML-DTrnQSY5N4n235UxX4Fg48R4wf8yA35W-z-tu21fIWxQczsWLjhI0-zQ43F2CUsk6ba96PCj1_b5YoS6gFAceLvLKj9g92mw1anN697M_GhssvQ49dUznmOrrGO2fFU/s320/P9280850.JPG" width="240" /></a></div> This was a walkin from a month ago over in NJ... we did the outline the first time and he stopped in to get some color... really excited about this one, never tattooed a Koi before.

I met this guy over at No Ka Oi about a week ago, we discussed the design he wanted, an infinity type symbol in blue with two happy faces inside the loops. He was very specfic about what he wanted, so after a week of emails and sketches and color studies this is what we came up with. I had some fun with this one because I love to draw faces, and fun ones at that! It gave me a chance to play around with the caricature-type style faces and put a bit of me into this design. I'm really happy with this one and so was he.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmi4zoIFb0o_xyucMTtiVSN7wSj_6wRSH4IYb8jo3SXqaWXyW3YcZ5cKFrPIpNA3_bakPrV-BdPd8nhVID212QuRiHNai2mKL5w7chnRx2HYHbLucpzvoTXJaHY2sTh175YvYiddCfn-k/s1600/IMG_1121.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmi4zoIFb0o_xyucMTtiVSN7wSj_6wRSH4IYb8jo3SXqaWXyW3YcZ5cKFrPIpNA3_bakPrV-BdPd8nhVID212QuRiHNai2mKL5w7chnRx2HYHbLucpzvoTXJaHY2sTh175YvYiddCfn-k/s320/IMG_1121.JPG" width="240" /></a></div> I'm down at the South Street shop today, not too busy of a day so far.

Business has been slowing down (as per this season) so I've been doing what I can to get my friends in the shop to do some portfolio pieces, and working on artwork. For some reason I've been in some sort of block lately... haven't been inspired to paint until just recently. <br /><br />On a good note, Kali came in yesterday to finish her skull! Very excited about this one. I still want to go back into the skull and smooth it out some more... still need to work on that. When I get a touchup session in with her I will also take really good pics... I want this one in my book! She's a trooper for letting me so done fun stuff on her...

I tattooed my first "client" out in Hawaii last year on this day. Kinda weird that it went by as fast as it did.... I'm very happy to be finally doing what I've worked so hard for, and I plan on doing this for the rest of my life. <br /><br />So in honor of this, I figured the first image should be this cupcake I started last night on a friend. She just turned 21 (in case you can't read) haha so I gave her this as a bday gift. It went in her inner arm and we unfortunately didn't get to finish it, which is ok... I want to see how it heals up and make any adjustments to the color once it's healed, and add some more detail to the sprinkles. Tried my hand at some realism, hopefully i'll get more opportunities like this one. Kudos to Lauren! I'll post better pics once it's done. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-Z1GOpU50LxQlBp-cTMckLlIhlSolvvueuFqP8cARpPzJpCqEp1u3tPEFZAacNpdasvOQ97ZYRxxZMOsyfPSApKLYioFfJDRjUPfEe2Uzi6dp5wKiW7RxU3LQjEaBqzXpZiXj2H4QeUw/s1600/P9130823.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><br /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFTv2gf2LYfn6fQkbzbntIZrFH5fc7ajMF0_Bd5_LbD5aPAVupMOSTJKlgcUJIdvaq8EN9VBf-y61HPRhJhtVgHSnVZi8eWS-EI4TRKvrmo4Z1cYlb-3IcY0NYjgThjHCF655H9yRKR4A/s1600/P9110820.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFTv2gf2LYfn6fQkbzbntIZrFH5fc7ajMF0_Bd5_LbD5aPAVupMOSTJKlgcUJIdvaq8EN9VBf-y61HPRhJhtVgHSnVZi8eWS-EI4TRKvrmo4Z1cYlb-3IcY0NYjgThjHCF655H9yRKR4A/s320/P9110820.JPG" width="240" /></a></div> This was an interesting one. She walked in, this was her first tattoo (if I remember correctly) She brought in this image which was pretty straight-forward. I set up for her and she also had a weird request... she wanted a little smiley face on her toe. I wasn't sure why until she took off her sock and there it was! two little toenails! kinda weird n all, but after seeing the nails like that, they make two little eyes and the smile completed the picture. Such a fun lil tattoo, even though it probably won't stay. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4d7XPKVfCCvkrvvr731OpCMa1ycpCVxCErpLgPoK1742d5Q9NZTy5FfBEGWcBfInTWoeJstzBYc6d4HJ3hatGQjyA7VATb66Jvx0OpTS4AyYenlZSUctj54krKl0hu5m4LNcukFv1vss/s1600/P9110819.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4d7XPKVfCCvkrvvr731OpCMa1ycpCVxCErpLgPoK1742d5Q9NZTy5FfBEGWcBfInTWoeJstzBYc6d4HJ3hatGQjyA7VATb66Jvx0OpTS4AyYenlZSUctj54krKl0hu5m4LNcukFv1vss/s320/P9110819.JPG" width="320" /></a></div> TOE SMILE!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgbbq7CenXkD1bEOoem08HIqAmfCVfGxODlHj3Las_2KNg1LqVXsnCaRCirFuQsjMXiUv5zXtmDHsAP-YuOPSN3HPs2R8QIFuBdvIm-A7o2ACrNErwBvGOEwclMlAtCpmUJ8oBSKgI2uw/s1600/P9100814.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgbbq7CenXkD1bEOoem08HIqAmfCVfGxODlHj3Las_2KNg1LqVXsnCaRCirFuQsjMXiUv5zXtmDHsAP-YuOPSN3HPs2R8QIFuBdvIm-A7o2ACrNErwBvGOEwclMlAtCpmUJ8oBSKgI2uw/s320/P9100814.JPG" width="240" /></a></div> Got to add onto the eyeball tattoo this week. He wanted to do some polynesian type stuff around it with some color. I haven't done much of this style, so I thought it would be a good time to try it out and start with two segments.

Very fun tattoo and it was inspired by this Adam Shields flash we have here at the shop. I really like how he does his eagles/birds and so did Parker, so we used that for reference (mainly the face) and then redrew the rest. I will post more when we get to finish this! So excited! Thanks Parker!!!! <br /><br />Until the next post...... don't let the rain get ya down!adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02454249265717014991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7891040038423083700.post-56440865052170712852011-09-04T14:30:00.000-07:002011-11-19T10:37:40.099-08:00busy week!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcc6GKpxw93M3XfXBXkVoTSwpNABpZcsPhV2UitZ8r6THYaBYr_z-HqcL8KO-rYouW6QOBhT7Gvn5xS38TOFxexZ6QtBlrwH7c6Crr9FbHbTT1OpdkmuRfH9-7YB3lNYVxirlXKfXIq1k/s1600/IMG_1028.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcc6GKpxw93M3XfXBXkVoTSwpNABpZcsPhV2UitZ8r6THYaBYr_z-HqcL8KO-rYouW6QOBhT7Gvn5xS38TOFxexZ6QtBlrwH7c6Crr9FbHbTT1OpdkmuRfH9-7YB3lNYVxirlXKfXIq1k/s400/IMG_1028.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>The hurricane may have scared people away over the weekend, but they all seemed to come in this week... which is a good thing!<br /><br />I got to see my friend Simon on Friday... got to work on the tiger I started about a month ago... the pics aren't the greatest but they're good for now until it's healed and I can get better pics.

I hope to see him again for the other half... got to work on my greywash and stone texture which was fun. I want to get more work like this....<br /><br /><br /><br />Yesterday I worked at the portside shop and got two walkins... both tattoos went on the same guy! He came in earlier for the ambigram thing on his arm, then came back hours later for another one... score!

The original design had the wings spread out on either side, which would have made this look more like an arm band... not really the best idea. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrftdIRb173aO47MgF_h2k2kZp55lTXbR2P2VdM8XuO84g8KnRsZUyU4S98637wJvRYXuL93bKTJY7EiPoMdNNspZHhakO2BabTLbto8rK2mwszPIy1cf8HKGaKMj0AeS-DgFpg1fwDb4/s1600/P8220769.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrftdIRb173aO47MgF_h2k2kZp55lTXbR2P2VdM8XuO84g8KnRsZUyU4S98637wJvRYXuL93bKTJY7EiPoMdNNspZHhakO2BabTLbto8rK2mwszPIy1cf8HKGaKMj0AeS-DgFpg1fwDb4/s400/P8220769.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>This was a walkin in NJ... it's been sort of slow over there.. and the weather hasn't been too great either.

Anyway I was happy with this one and I asked her to come back when it's healed so I can get a picture of how it looks aged for that henna-inspired look.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwRdi9bRJMYTGOGK1PIEqVNt5ZBgtYL7DE-aw25q9LKvDKq88PcYTaXRpg4qkOytr8JA8rBb9eA5-rK1nVjU-6M6d8pKpLR6lotG_peuF3csVj23Eag_raGck1hXbBeZub1Hnq0ybV038/s1600/P8290774.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwRdi9bRJMYTGOGK1PIEqVNt5ZBgtYL7DE-aw25q9LKvDKq88PcYTaXRpg4qkOytr8JA8rBb9eA5-rK1nVjU-6M6d8pKpLR6lotG_peuF3csVj23Eag_raGck1hXbBeZub1Hnq0ybV038/s640/P8290774.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> This one was a really cool walkin. this is a poem, written exactly like this. She let me do my thing for the left however the lettering had to be done a certain way. Had alot of fun with shading and texture and just sort of experimented alot with it. I was really happy with how pleased she was and I want to see the leaf healed... I went a little on the lighter side for this, I want to play more with non-outlines with black and grey. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7lhJfVWar7KhydySC3jwt63nNVG6X2fWT8AbLmivPYBl0Gd7sxxsWlkMfnUbvZHbPi803nUH0bxV8ekhHgQ8lOAXlaoklK6rOqwy_0qPY8wgh4odID4tbZ3RWJQHci8CYQe5uBWGDVdA/s1600/P8290773.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7lhJfVWar7KhydySC3jwt63nNVG6X2fWT8AbLmivPYBl0Gd7sxxsWlkMfnUbvZHbPi803nUH0bxV8ekhHgQ8lOAXlaoklK6rOqwy_0qPY8wgh4odID4tbZ3RWJQHci8CYQe5uBWGDVdA/s400/P8290773.JPG" width="400" /></a></div> This was the first walkin of the day, and by the first I mean literally she was outside ready to get tattooed. This is being of top of things! When people call our shop asking about walkins, we always tell them "we always take walkins, but on a first-come, first-serve basis, so its best to come early" good thing she did because right after she came in and we had about a half hour to chill, it was busy from then on!<br /><br />This chick was really cool, she had some reference with her, wanted an all black stem the went across her foot. Other than that she let me do my thing.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijzvRF41WpxG7UlgdZbfLVKWs87Uey2m0x7xkEtfoioLTEo9ZBpfPYitRQuoeBS-8NNh1npaawUwYVDRiBHoZp5YNm6saFYdfj0hyXrB1Gw1TcjPjXMbyKO7_N03rqb5N1KW8bsDzRg4A/s1600/P8290771.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijzvRF41WpxG7UlgdZbfLVKWs87Uey2m0x7xkEtfoioLTEo9ZBpfPYitRQuoeBS-8NNh1npaawUwYVDRiBHoZp5YNm6saFYdfj0hyXrB1Gw1TcjPjXMbyKO7_N03rqb5N1KW8bsDzRg4A/s400/P8290771.JPG" width="400" /></a></div> Took my time with this one... I think I would like to do different dro pshadows the next time I get to do something like this, but overall I was happy with it and so was she. I actually enjoy tattooing feet. Especially stuff like this that sort of flows with the area.<br /><br />I want to write more... will later.

Need a few more walkins then it'll be time to go home :)<br /><br /><br />Until next time....adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02454249265717014991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7891040038423083700.post-35523152178387116762011-08-19T10:51:00.000-07:002011-11-19T10:37:40.100-08:00New bird sketchesThese are the sketches I've been working on... very rough stages right now, but will be developing them some more today.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkXTxsSjpbJlAyZPhyphenhyphenuZW17HwDQ0E9yKYpuFOlpOpuo6IZ6jHYYwYaZbz8DQ9F0jyMmcWo3WaXbcIfkvFfKW2307fGNQP1sFY4CfwYn7ppDP4Tkyr56dGJgE-RmINnzF3LM84N9Sr3B54/s1600/IMG_0963.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkXTxsSjpbJlAyZPhyphenhyphenuZW17HwDQ0E9yKYpuFOlpOpuo6IZ6jHYYwYaZbz8DQ9F0jyMmcWo3WaXbcIfkvFfKW2307fGNQP1sFY4CfwYn7ppDP4Tkyr56dGJgE-RmINnzF3LM84N9Sr3B54/s400/IMG_0963.JPG" width="300" /></a></div> getting inspired by Ravens and crows lately... looking at alot of artwork lately and want to do some sheets of flash and large paintings.<br /><br />I've almost got my studio area ready in my house, so stay tuned for painting studies soon....<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPbi-yQIj5vmuSAbCOloK9dIjLtOxmpnUBA6AY6sMqw8v5gz7VLDoDB6aP751tySRjPegV3IOWcfhZYkuaUb_cX5EpyEkrsk7KbJuwfTJOBlbMJIvCsH2MRKgjZXIHzHIT-BO7pLeElt8/s1600/IMG_0962.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPbi-yQIj5vmuSAbCOloK9dIjLtOxmpnUBA6AY6sMqw8v5gz7VLDoDB6aP751tySRjPegV3IOWcfhZYkuaUb_cX5EpyEkrsk7KbJuwfTJOBlbMJIvCsH2MRKgjZXIHzHIT-BO7pLeElt8/s400/IMG_0962.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFjh-nBO3RhArMlQD0K5lBfEKtnlaZtVO_W_UQkapKiW7HfF3KXdV_kIlTJ1CuGpN6ktZhGynFZsucUMuAhfHLuKV0G1dhcTKjbvSH9LkKgF00yG416-Ag89-mkwGnFhsR_BddS_HHNPc/s1600/IMG_0961.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFjh-nBO3RhArMlQD0K5lBfEKtnlaZtVO_W_UQkapKiW7HfF3KXdV_kIlTJ1CuGpN6ktZhGynFZsucUMuAhfHLuKV0G1dhcTKjbvSH9LkKgF00yG416-Ag89-mkwGnFhsR_BddS_HHNPc/s320/IMG_0961.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02454249265717014991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7891040038423083700.post-7000045332060371512011-08-19T10:47:00.000-07:002011-11-19T10:37:40.100-08:00holdin it down in NJ<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOswRA-qqBsZp48BSvYRa8VhsiaN9Os8OunsvnOMtlLdOCsdVh7D4GV2NxP6GkZLHm9uqyhIPI46PvJWXH7X7Rt_R1xc136xoMkIluvrVzLZHT8SqU_ROvnTjpYXUuoLxUJLLxGFUVZJM/s1600/P8170756.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOswRA-qqBsZp48BSvYRa8VhsiaN9Os8OunsvnOMtlLdOCsdVh7D4GV2NxP6GkZLHm9uqyhIPI46PvJWXH7X7Rt_R1xc136xoMkIluvrVzLZHT8SqU_ROvnTjpYXUuoLxUJLLxGFUVZJM/s640/P8170756.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> So it's still a bit slow over here in NJ, however I was able to get two walkins this week.<br /><br />This girl was super nice and she let me play around with blues and greens.

Any tattoo that comes in I try to take if its not on an area that I can't do yet... anything helps. I still need to print out more images for my portfolio so I aim to get that done this week. I'm not so much stressing about work because I love what I do, but moreso about money. I'm in the process of looking for part-time work freelancing and stuff so that I can take care of my bills and catch up, but it seems that no matter how hard I work I can't seem to get ahead. Hopefully soon.<br /><br />Anyway I worked at No Ka Oi the other night, got this walkin and some lettering. This was done at the end of the night, He was wearing these boots too! He was a fun dude and this was his first one. It was a good opportunity for me to practice shading and realism a bit... Still needs to be smoothed out a bit in some spots, but I had alot of fun with it.<br /><br /><br />The next one was this lettering on the wrist. this was also her first.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ciFm4dBhDtCjnIDQ4ZVcE9kIc1hezpaIgzzGigoPQ5QYCtn57UUkxFr3FmtTl3puOFYuMA4rYzWyHyWgFAONcRXM-KQrrgXPIsjkTBMEYTT_4oV5QucR6WBhVPwOsk8gpObRffV1QVU/s1600/P8120747.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4ciFm4dBhDtCjnIDQ4ZVcE9kIc1hezpaIgzzGigoPQ5QYCtn57UUkxFr3FmtTl3puOFYuMA4rYzWyHyWgFAONcRXM-KQrrgXPIsjkTBMEYTT_4oV5QucR6WBhVPwOsk8gpObRffV1QVU/s320/P8120747.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5H-qP6mEuFGgCRfR-YGBwD6iapFPjprdTOhLx5E7CeypsS8MM9V4j-Fvh_9qra5U4JRYIFjFTAPN3K7r1eoG-k181vtN7DGnhZHR9Xdj0ugAJdJR6DM1fgvK8UNB0Bad286CqBo2frOw/s1600/P8120745.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5H-qP6mEuFGgCRfR-YGBwD6iapFPjprdTOhLx5E7CeypsS8MM9V4j-Fvh_9qra5U4JRYIFjFTAPN3K7r1eoG-k181vtN7DGnhZHR9Xdj0ugAJdJR6DM1fgvK8UNB0Bad286CqBo2frOw/s320/P8120745.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>This was the first walkin of the day at No Ka Oi.

I am stoked to work on this one. I worked on her for 3-3.5 hrs taking my time and starting this. I still need to smooth out some things, but overall I'm happy with it so far. The background is going to be very dark, so once that's in there the house will stand out more, since the house is very light. I'm excited to have this one in my portfolio when its all finished. She was really receptive to my story and the fact that I'm still new. I hope to see her back in a few weeks. Heres what I did so far....<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWNr1yVJH9QT4H5RqD9ji0ZkCegEQR4Z1iTo-FV6Yk1c50ARk3NFHtNrhH0PSugEUVIt51CgqfuAwgr0Dxt48pQyBAn_7oAg9wCAc7WDS5ebTWt-2QIoh8RVQsuu9VKF3lh-7e86aZH0g/s1600/house1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWNr1yVJH9QT4H5RqD9ji0ZkCegEQR4Z1iTo-FV6Yk1c50ARk3NFHtNrhH0PSugEUVIt51CgqfuAwgr0Dxt48pQyBAn_7oAg9wCAc7WDS5ebTWt-2QIoh8RVQsuu9VKF3lh-7e86aZH0g/s320/house1.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVqNucGuxspMXOKpmrga8ZOdLDoM_iUgxgejybSu9Rdiv6cjz0Z9yGJb_6KfwzjAdX-XOTJX8EEF7iwj17UdWAhr4s-KPIed9qkXPzwXdxsSUznoYgvEFuymtpsKu7RKdWaVcMelTJLsU/s1600/house2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVqNucGuxspMXOKpmrga8ZOdLDoM_iUgxgejybSu9Rdiv6cjz0Z9yGJb_6KfwzjAdX-XOTJX8EEF7iwj17UdWAhr4s-KPIed9qkXPzwXdxsSUznoYgvEFuymtpsKu7RKdWaVcMelTJLsU/s400/house2.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><br />The background still needs to be put in, as well as shading in the house itself.... really can't wait to see it with the evil creature and the moon with shadows.<br /><br /><br />MORE TO COME!adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02454249265717014991noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7891040038423083700.post-1303449776144057082011-08-06T15:15:00.000-07:002011-11-19T10:37:40.100-08:00<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hi, wassup everybody ?!? :)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Wow, it's been a long time without updating this blog...

Not too much walkin traffic, so i figured i'd update this. It's been slow all over the place.... BUT its always best to stay positive!<br /><br />This was my first (and only) tattoo today so far. Concentric circles upon more circles! This was definitely a real challenge, however I took my time and although there are tiny flaws in it, I'm happy with how it came out and so was she! This was her first tattoo as well.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhje5DgKR7flgZ3s9-fZM_Jrd6SwT_ow5rxQ3VEUJ2P1m-tqBsRkVXF6b-R8I5xG6N3DA1KAiJytJ2LWdxUk6v6Q34vsuiNzuKUjjGqSMz2dZ6slYJXb_6vGgsY7_5uuXkF1R9p_3HG47M/s1600/P8050729.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhje5DgKR7flgZ3s9-fZM_Jrd6SwT_ow5rxQ3VEUJ2P1m-tqBsRkVXF6b-R8I5xG6N3DA1KAiJytJ2LWdxUk6v6Q34vsuiNzuKUjjGqSMz2dZ6slYJXb_6vGgsY7_5uuXkF1R9p_3HG47M/s640/P8050729.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> I finally got to outline Simon's tiger yesterday. Since both of us had plans for the evening we just did the linework for now. The photo is a bit bright, but you can still see it ok.

I had some trouble stretching this area... still need some work with that.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />The phoenix was another walkin on 4th street. This chick was really sweet and really open to ideas. She originally came in wanting a portrait of her cat, however the image she had wasn't of the greatest quality, so we went through her list of other tattoos she wanted and came up with this. She was really great to talk to and I had a good time tattooing her! Such a good experience when your client/customer has a good attitude! <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCya6xxAbjD5fUqpiO_coZdEFNlwyd6FXrWFKFVNhBhy2ewvmAfwEL_4RcaxJkJwoMbBA54DdV0j7LBsUqaV2BJwhy_rI9EJsmWMOWqUv5mBIFVpc1BuwraNHcOczecYQGFS7aDl0iSVg/s1600/P8010721.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCya6xxAbjD5fUqpiO_coZdEFNlwyd6FXrWFKFVNhBhy2ewvmAfwEL_4RcaxJkJwoMbBA54DdV0j7LBsUqaV2BJwhy_rI9EJsmWMOWqUv5mBIFVpc1BuwraNHcOczecYQGFS7aDl0iSVg/s320/P8010721.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_3YuAY8WtJdFkPqZ-q_2EIsL2U_2ZRgpmz59GIYC1f1XgUxvZJtV-Vhg_O7kavsYPSOAwI4R6gnbVKlC90lt1jFoJrYIUZqCgVBaTfQzbg-ab7KXrv9FCHEmKbJM17Uctaicpocgcd8U/s1600/P8010719.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_3YuAY8WtJdFkPqZ-q_2EIsL2U_2ZRgpmz59GIYC1f1XgUxvZJtV-Vhg_O7kavsYPSOAwI4R6gnbVKlC90lt1jFoJrYIUZqCgVBaTfQzbg-ab7KXrv9FCHEmKbJM17Uctaicpocgcd8U/s320/P8010719.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Walkin at the end of the night.

Since it's a bit slow and I haven't been doing too much big stuff, I figure that in order for me to feel like I'm doing alot, maybe I should post everything still. Until then I guess I'll stick with the current program.<br /><br />Kanji done on South St.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgo0Dbtrj61VOcvGyXkfJg1zGEhSBh4Ki0c51KTX4AcMnRJphBh6N-B6rvXUVeIjQ-_aY2QKU3YTHqUcGzGwsxFhGc4QNnYXFw3Ly_MWQf8pNnMHPvcA1Pqo98ViVTothY54To_0Ir1zT0/s1600/P7310717.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgo0Dbtrj61VOcvGyXkfJg1zGEhSBh4Ki0c51KTX4AcMnRJphBh6N-B6rvXUVeIjQ-_aY2QKU3YTHqUcGzGwsxFhGc4QNnYXFw3Ly_MWQf8pNnMHPvcA1Pqo98ViVTothY54To_0Ir1zT0/s320/P7310717.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Same one on her husband<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_IbpVdvVQkluHhaM_x8H8_ZgebYWZwIzMWRocSyzimjrhKwlOW7bItYfYDRYyvy-ZZNCKILvB1zD6tzoVC0Thm3Phv6u6iF-M8OnzUgH04pKn2rmIUsE_0f7pmxrPxWYAo3Rxg5J3kLA/s1600/P7310716.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_IbpVdvVQkluHhaM_x8H8_ZgebYWZwIzMWRocSyzimjrhKwlOW7bItYfYDRYyvy-ZZNCKILvB1zD6tzoVC0Thm3Phv6u6iF-M8OnzUgH04pKn2rmIUsE_0f7pmxrPxWYAo3Rxg5J3kLA/s320/P7310716.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>nautical star <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7W4cR8rz7JnhT0uQbT_5RYqgbxDVbJvcR91_7W6MbNQTpGPDgkExPUk3nywcx2vkbM0oDGgGx3Cre5_suFiPXd6pUVOLPzC1JWZ9Ef7Gi0RdxjW5SjE2KC_3Dw0dNUcoahPlZwUQZggU/s1600/P7300713.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7W4cR8rz7JnhT0uQbT_5RYqgbxDVbJvcR91_7W6MbNQTpGPDgkExPUk3nywcx2vkbM0oDGgGx3Cre5_suFiPXd6pUVOLPzC1JWZ9Ef7Gi0RdxjW5SjE2KC_3Dw0dNUcoahPlZwUQZggU/s400/P7300713.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>This one was a fun one! A walk in while I was working at No Ka Oi this weekend. This was his first tattoo and wanted his birth date all fancy-like on his back. This is what we came up with. I worked on him for a while and am happy with this. Looking at it now I would change a few small things about the border around the letters, but overall I took my time and played around with the drippy-drips on the outside of the letters. I want to get more stuff like this to do!!!! Never a shortage of lettering requests walking through the door everyday.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg061WsitKCxfG99ZPvzf3PrU1vUWUExFFaXNLg6qtmwHTi4yPzgCzn9bnWr3F29I35IaSajywTnF5F7OuvKqR5P3E6INO7lI1T9Nl3Br9JLMzM1Yb34jDZFxAuMJkj5xjNk__lk_vAdEo/s1600/P7300712.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg061WsitKCxfG99ZPvzf3PrU1vUWUExFFaXNLg6qtmwHTi4yPzgCzn9bnWr3F29I35IaSajywTnF5F7OuvKqR5P3E6INO7lI1T9Nl3Br9JLMzM1Yb34jDZFxAuMJkj5xjNk__lk_vAdEo/s320/P7300712.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Another first-timer at No Ka Oi.

Not too bold and way more depth and realism than the mediocre color pieces people do these days. </div><div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLqJ0bNkeqi1KJSI-vUvEYXscmNUGLsN7I-Edlx0nJg5_soo3bAbvzm9x3XSQe6couMKGki6jaQJScu1VPPXW4GoAwiij6Kj_uiO-vETFIWGOrhZtgslExsaLQ8uXTmj5CXWY0wg0g9i5v/s1600/IMG_1663.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; "></span></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtgBC9jk9RSq3hR18y2U8x2_eYiparr9EhqQwkkydbgs5tvZDIzifEuaYOslWfZV8LWWsgmxjFecj5kKJeqUUHZy_l72q-B3GGmEaBbjWr1l2TiKvrqpYwxdgYxce2aDrfdU-9pjLm84pe/s1600/IMG_1474.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 299px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtgBC9jk9RSq3hR18y2U8x2_eYiparr9EhqQwkkydbgs5tvZDIzifEuaYOslWfZV8LWWsgmxjFecj5kKJeqUUHZy_l72q-B3GGmEaBbjWr1l2TiKvrqpYwxdgYxce2aDrfdU-9pjLm84pe/s400/IMG_1474.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5632387140722593410" /></a></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Can't believe July is almost over.

Pretty sweet considering I used to play this game when I was little with my brother growing up. This one was challenging since it's a perfect circle. I'm getting better at taking my time.... slow and steady. Need more practice with color blending but this helped me out alot. Thanks to James and Mike for these!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl5OGSAjrWr5fpXBDhIjkEpGW2a0-yZ6x5FbJPFG3j3AIL6Isa3hEqJJusD-XDsyZeEuUO0ZQxpeZCwRLXt0K5iPkZb0YZibrK6vBxayaAInySoYeNPAUflknunMYGBwmr9zbYbTQUvik/s1600/P7160676.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhl5OGSAjrWr5fpXBDhIjkEpGW2a0-yZ6x5FbJPFG3j3AIL6Isa3hEqJJusD-XDsyZeEuUO0ZQxpeZCwRLXt0K5iPkZb0YZibrK6vBxayaAInySoYeNPAUflknunMYGBwmr9zbYbTQUvik/s320/P7160676.JPG" width="320" /></a></div> Saturday at 4th St<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwxQb_zompw1Fy1OYxWKaoznCZtQCnyIWr82OFhaUYe7YqAkkz-DfNnpvA9jgZMVKfSJsUnxw2Law2UrqCVFwRAG1vduYL6yi4fCRP8Em34lnD2_guIyLiOOXSorgawNEHqmz3EKMsnNg/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwxQb_zompw1Fy1OYxWKaoznCZtQCnyIWr82OFhaUYe7YqAkkz-DfNnpvA9jgZMVKfSJsUnxw2Law2UrqCVFwRAG1vduYL6yi4fCRP8Em34lnD2_guIyLiOOXSorgawNEHqmz3EKMsnNg/s320/photo.JPG" width="240" /></a></div> Another walk in<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuXVnGW6QrKPzyFJRE5HxjEXlHOHnc4EOeiPPrpuUrbaF3COUfLV7gkdNhoWj1xlWDtd5t2PTwzWSHa-FKCZZl4aYj0Z0Iq9zP8lEgc0Fs9V1WpXIFqSXcf3nnodJdB3_ismY4F5I0FPA/s1600/P7160675.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuXVnGW6QrKPzyFJRE5HxjEXlHOHnc4EOeiPPrpuUrbaF3COUfLV7gkdNhoWj1xlWDtd5t2PTwzWSHa-FKCZZl4aYj0Z0Iq9zP8lEgc0Fs9V1WpXIFqSXcf3nnodJdB3_ismY4F5I0FPA/s320/P7160675.JPG" width="320" /></a></div> Walkin...hard to tattoo this area, really weird when you get by the tendon at the back of the ankle.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2xcuaABcPRHDb1XGrujKioSOkW_esxvXTBlCPLJOP_M6Bk_rvY62Dh2EDHgXgB46TvHKz7MAQhoonkzfnsaP-ScvtsyitJ87CIBjYCTgnLH7Yhg92yvEPFprvEyJHhUCsZNMms_gI_Eo/s1600/P7150672.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2xcuaABcPRHDb1XGrujKioSOkW_esxvXTBlCPLJOP_M6Bk_rvY62Dh2EDHgXgB46TvHKz7MAQhoonkzfnsaP-ScvtsyitJ87CIBjYCTgnLH7Yhg92yvEPFprvEyJHhUCsZNMms_gI_Eo/s400/P7150672.JPG" width="300" /></a></div> Kudos to Kali for letting me do this awesome design on her!
