Tattoos

This guy was born in England, and loves pool. Enough said!

This was another piece I did in my apprenticeship. It's a collage of almost every "All" album cover.

This is a combination of a couple flash art pieces. She sat really well, and I thought the whole piece ended up really nice.

This was my first time doing tribal freehand. The customer was from Oklahoma, and came in every Saturday for three weeks. We would just add more and more each week.

This guy wanted a barbedwire arm band(sic), but I drew this up and convinced him it was much cooler. The world has enough barbedwire armbands.

This was funny because the week before I did this, I did a deer head on his other arm. We all know what he's into huh?

This was a piece I did during my apprenticeship, it is also a cover up. I put it on here because it's my friend John's original artwork, and I'm a big fan of his style. Check him out at: diablotexas.com

This is from a Mike Allred picture. He's the guy who does the Madman comics for all you fellow comic book nerds.

These eyes were actually her girlfriends eyes. I just used a reference photo, and captured them as closely as possible.

I was very much inspired by " the Killing Joke" comic for this design. I wanted a very menacing face for this, I think I pulled it off.

This was a cool colaboration between the customer and myself. He wanted the chainsaw, but he also wanted some kind of Catholic imagery. I suggested combining the two, and the end result was really unique.

This was actually a cover up, but the old tattoo was so faint I couldn't get a picture. I originally thought of Mucha, till I saw Brandi Milne's work in Juxtapose. The customer made me add the wings, but the rest is true to Brandi's work.

Custom Voodoo doll piece. I drew this up in about 5 minutes, and the customer was all over it. I love when things go that smoothly!

I did this piece was on a local Navy recruiter. She had trouble sitting, but I was happy with the end result.

This was a flash piece with a few little tweaks. I just thought it looked nice.

This was a design for a cover up, but the customer brought his brother in, and had me put it on his brother first. He wanted to see how it would look!

My customer brought in a bobble head of this, and I tattooed it on him

Did this one on the back of one of my co-workers' necks. He digs vampires in a big way, so I designed this for him.

I have a Sailor Jerry book, and just kind of embelished the design a bit.

A friend of mine wanted a Texas themed design, which included the Miller High Life chick, so this is what I cooked up for him. I still have a little bit of color work to do on it.

Just a nice piece. I like the woodgrain look.

Did this one on a woman's foot. I used a wash line for it. I took this right after. I think it will look great when it heals.

Pretty self explanitory. I was really happy with the water on this one though.

This is part of the painting "Starry Night".

This was on the same customer with the "Mr. Horsepower" cover up. He wanted to put his wife and daughters name in a design, but still keep some kind of gearhead/car enthusiast theme in there.

This customer has a lot of WWII type tattoos on him. He wanted a skull in a Nazi helmet. I'm not willing to do any white supremecy icons on anyone, so we copromised. We had to use the goofy helmet to cover up an old tattoo he had.
