Fishhook

A nice walk-in Polynesian fishhook tattoo.  It has been really slow lately, maybe that is because of the insanely fucking negative energy that’s been vomiting all over the studio over the last few months.  I’m gonna move on soon if this shit doesn’t change.  I am a happy guy, and I love this place deeply.  I cannot in any way handle the consistent negative energy of unhappy people.  I have tried my very best to improve my friend's life, to help him get through whatever it is that he’s going through.  It’s not working, and I am about to call it and simply make it all about me.

Enough about that rant, here is my favorite tattoo of the day.

Polynesian Tribal

This client came back for a second session to add some forms onto his fishhook he got last year.  He is going to be back in a few months to complete the bottom of his leg with me.

Adding on to Polynesian Tribal

Al came back again.  He and his wife get a tattoo from me every year now.  I added to his work, filling in some spots that were empty.  He will need a full day of work for what is there now to be completed in my eyes, but we only had a day to work together.  It looks great, and he is cool to work with.






Mahalo, see you next year.

Tiki Flash

I made this Tiki guy from my flash with an ax from this guys favorite game, "Diablo."
I like my flash, and it is pretty popular these days.

Hawaii #2 "To Slide"

I have completed my second study here on Maui; it is simple.  I was working with the octopus and its name “he’e” meaning too slide as it slides along the ocean currents.  This is still all preparation for my large composition.  It is nice to get my hands back to where I want them to be.  









I am still not ready in anyway whatsoever to go on to my formal composition.  I need a year of study and character development first.  It’s definitely fun so far.


Vouge

I have a history of theatrically posing with my paintings.



Athena and Trev are going to use these pictures for the Atomic Tattoo Hallway.
