We finished up this hip to knee thigh piece of a snake and flowers the other day. I appreciate my clients dedication to large scale pieces so much and I’m really psyched with the way this one came out

Me and Ricky are on a roadtrip to our honeymoon (we’ve been married for two years). Four days and 8 states later we’re in Galveston, Tx. These are some highlights from New Orleans

We finished this stylized owl chest piece for my client Josh a little bit ago, I really appreciate the freedom to reinterpret the original design to turn it from a print graphic into a tattoo, I’m psyched with the way it turned out!

We started the shading on this floral and lettering half sleeve this past week. I really like being able to show the process of an outline turns into a fully realized tattoo

If you ever ask me to do whatever kind of lettering I want, I will always choose Old English as long as there’s room for it. I really appreciate the commitment that Chance put into this rib panel, it’s one of my favorites!

I finally got to explore some woods I’ve had my eyes on for a while looking for glass insulators in the wild. I only found a couple of ceramic ones but being in the woods was definitely what we needed
