I make a a lot of tribal turtles.

Guitar

This was a fun tattoo to make.  He had a special guitar that he owned and wanted an American Traditional version of it.

My local guy heads off to the army in a week so it’s time to finish his tattoo.  I tried a new composition trying to balance the heavy blacks and the open spaces.  It turned out pretty cool.  I have another large piece next week so I will try to work toward this style again.

Fun walk-in today.

Polynesian Gecko

It seams like this is gecko week.  It is like shark week, but sticky.

I got the chance to rework an older composition.

Polynesian Gecko

Today was the busiest I have ever seen it in the studio.  I did more tattoos in a single day than I normally do in two or three days.  It was amazing, and I am grateful for every single client that came to my studio today for a tattoo.  The clients were from everywhere; some lived here on Maui, some were on vacation and each of them knew exactly what they wanted and trusted me to make all the decisions.

This is my favorite of the day.

Manta Ray

I got a chance to make another manta ray tattoo.  It was a good study.

I like this turtle tattoo.  I went off the rails with the design, and I am glad I did.

Video Game

This is an image from some video game, I am not sure which one.  The client brought me the image, and I love playing video games so hell yes I want to make this tattoo.  Now I just need to find out what game this is from.
