I had so much fun doing this tattoo. It incorporates a lot of elements I especially enjoy tattooing, flowers, lettering, filigree...

I started this tattoo quite a while ago and finally got to finish it a few weeks ago. This is his grandfather and I like the way this picture looks with my client standing the same way as the man in the tattoo.

This was a fun one, I liked using the braille to represent water/bubbles.

I have mixed feelings about doing coverups, as I think most tattooers do. The trick is, obviously, to make a new tattoo that doesn't scream "Coverup!" . You don't want to show your new tattoo to someone and the first thing they say is "What did you cover?" I'm pleased with this coverup. I think I was pretty successful in getting rid of a tribal ankle band.
I also tattooed Adam recently and Isaac is always excited to be there when Adam's in the shop. As you can clearly see. Who cares what the tattoo looks like when you have a picture like this?!

Most of us at the shop have participated in a book project based on Unobserved holidays. I chose Weary Willie Day (Dec. 9) and made a linoleum print using a reduction process, which means after I print the 1st color I carve away at the linoleum and then print the next color. So I basically ruin the linoleum creating a limited edition run of prints. This picture shows the block with the fist color rolled on it. You can see what I plan to print in black in the future by the sharpie I colored on the block. I made 44 prints which I will post to sell online in the very near future!
