Freehand Tattoos at the Brighton Convention

These are the pieces I did on the Saturday.

Fujin sleeve, 2nd session

All the line work is completed, starting the shading in two weeks.

Busho

He is finished for the time being. We are starting Fudo Myo on the clients stomach and chest in a couple of weeks. Then dragons on the arms, once they are completed we will add in all the background.

Fujin sleeve 1st session

Long way to go, but I will be working on this every two weeks. So it should progress along nicely.

I was lucky enough to be invited to include my work in Omerta Publications tattoo book Nunquam Dormio Volume 1.

The first edition is limited to 150 copies and retails at $80. For further info click on the link

Something to think about

It's not often I read something on social networking sites that 'speak to me' as most of them are filled with trivial shite. However one of my Facebook friends posted this and it pretty much reflects my views on tattooing and creativity in general, hope you enjoy it.
If you want to check out his page follow the linky:

"Proud to call myself of Tattoo Artist and a lover of the craft, yet i am insignificant, a house guess in the halls of the tattoo fathers. Tattooing belongs to those that came before us and we rent it till we inherit it by rights of your age in the industry.
the Goddess Tattooing will out live me and by my death, if i am lucky, my name will be in script in her skin."

 

Busho

This is at the end of the 4th session.

Handmade badge

This is a handmade badge I did for my wife. I have a few more planned so keep your eyes peeled.
