Website Has Been Updated! Finally!

Yup. Spent most of last night after my astronomy class updating the website. As always, I am waiting for some tattoos that are nearly done to be completed and added to the site, and waiting for photos of others. But, for the most part, I am updated. I am going to wait to update the painting section until after the Art-A-Whirl, so those people who come and see the unveiling of new paintings will get a first look, untainted by web postings.

Monday Fun Day

Today I did a tattoo of a peacock feather on Jenny, (not pictured), she is a pin-up photographer. Her business, Gypsy Eyes Photography, specializes in all types of portraiture in addition to pin-up photography.

 Dusty finally made it in for me to get a picture of his tattoo which we completed towards the end of 2008. I am so pleased to finally have pictures of the piratey-piece...

More Pin-Ups

 I had another fun tattoo waiting for me; Jessica, who's chest piece I also did, was treating herself to a birthday tattoo. I got to do a tattooed pin-up in the traditional tattoo style, but black and grey. I think I will have to use the drawing again, I really dig it. (She is "holding onto" an existing tattoo of an Ozzy Osbourne signature that I did not do.) Check it out...

Miss Kitty Does Nature Tattooing.....

I typically do not favor doing nature tattoos, nor claim to specialize in them, but this one turned out pretty nice.  I though I'd share since I did not post it on my website of Myspace page.

Pin-up Angels...

Did a little tattooing on a client, Steve today. He is back from Chicago and back to getting tattooed. I did a piece today of some pin-up angels. As always, I love doing tattoos involving pin-ups and the female form. Tattooing someone in a tough spot, such as the ribs where we did Steve's tattoo, can present it's own set of challenges, but he handled it well and it made the piece that much better for it. The picture distorts a little as the tattoo curves around to his stomach, making the second angels arms look short, but you can get the feel for what is going on. Enjoy....

Peacocks

I finished Mazie's tattoo today. I have been looking forward to the color on this piece for some time. I'm a pleased with the way it turned out, it is a well thought out piece. Here is a picture below...

The weekend, and work...

Some blurbs about the miscellaneous...

Brittany's piercing special went great at the shop, lots of people in for some new holes.

The shop will be preparing for the Art-A-Whirl, as will I, with lots and lots of painting in my down time.  

Here's a little picture of a tattoo I did last week, a strawberry from "Across the Universe."
