V8 Tiki

My client loves building car engines.  This V8 tiki was really fun to tattoo, and the client was cool as hell.  Today was an awesome day.

Plumeria Tattoo

This client is a regular.  She comes back to me every 6 months or sooner.  This was a pretty fun plumeria to make for her.

I really like this tattoo, and I think it is my favorite plumeria I have done in a long time.

I make a lot of Polynesian turtles, or tribal turtles.

Palm Tree Tattoo

This client wanted ghost that disguised itself as a palm tree.  So this is what I came up with.

Flower Flash Paintings

I paintied a couple of traditional flash sheets.  I have already tattooed some of these, and I would really like to tattoo the rest.  I should be able to get a few clients to get these as tattoos.

Salmon

My client is a commercial fisherman in Alaska.  Salmon is his crop.

Two Rose Tattoos

I made a couple of American Traditional rose tattoos today.  Both clients were regulars and it is always nice when they come in for a tattoo.  Today was a fairly slow day, which was perfect for me.  I have started the compositional studies for a new series of paintings here on Maui.  I have a general idea of the way I want to start these paintings, albeit I will let the paint decide the finish.

New Flash

I painted some more flash.
