it's a beard

had a cancellation of epic proportions yesterday and felt like doing some tattooing.

a very good friend of mine with a highly refined and sophisticated sense of humor requested that i add a skull rock to his collection.

these tattoos start with a simple skull, with your choice of number of eyes as well as a list of accoutrement from which to choose 3. your skull rock will also be numbered in a different language (Portuguese for this one) he chose a martini glass, a blunt and a monocle. this is how it shaped up...

on a more serious note, here are a few 'in progress' pix from a sleeve that i'm working on. cartoony style stuff doesn't come along very often, but it sure is a hoot....

new year

it's been a year and a day since we've been in our new home and i need a damn vacation!!! here's a couple morsels for your discerning palate.

first off, a lil' eire Mr. Lucky.... we don't do enough Mr. Lucky's, if you smoke or have a skull, come down and get one, or two. they ARE customizable after all!

now, a real pretty number... we did this in just over 2 hours, yipes!

i've been really sparse with tattoo pix this month cause i've been working on a bunch of bigger pieces, and progress shots aren't always that glamorous, some really exciting stuff coming up though!
