These are various drawings I've done. Some are for tattoos, some are just for fun.

Angel pinup
This is the Monroe style angel. The actual tattoo is partially done on a friend's leg, but he hasn't been around to finish it.

I started a set of pin up flash, but got lazy and never finished it. This was one of the pieces.

Space girl
Another piece from my unfinished pin up flash. I've actually started this as a huge side piece on one of our artists. I'll post pictures when it's done.

Samurai
This was just me bored at the shop. I drew it up with no intentions of doing anything with it. Just thought it looked nice.

Salma Hyek Angel
I drew this up for the shop owner's side. He wants to add some other stuff that we're disagreeing on, so I haven't done it yet. I do think it looks like Salma Hyek though.

Medussa
This is the drawing for a calf piece I'm in the middle of right now. I think one more sitting will do it. Each snake has different little details, so I'm trying to take my time.

Flash page
As I said before, I start flash projects and never finish them. Here's a whole sheet, but that's as far as I got!

martini girl/black and grey
This is a design I'm working on for a friend. I thought I'd post the sketch and the color study.

Here's a color study I did for the same design. It's still in the idea stages right now.
