better late then never

California love
Loved doing these quails and poppies they made for a great tattoo.
I randomly had another request for a poppy tattoo in the same month as the foot. California imagery that is out of the ordinary is the best.

Fancy cat tat, with a gold mouse cane.

long over due

Some fun tattoos, these people were the perfect customers. I was lucky and happy to make them some sweet tats.
Day of the dead lady head.
Did a little something different with the water, and I'm really feeling it.

I think I'm turning japanese, i really don't think so..

I have more tattoos to put up, just haven't unloaded my rig lately.
Finished this Koi tattoo, she had existing tattoos on her upper arm that Im going to incorporate a japanese background into to tie it all together. Had a lot of fun busting this out.

Got this Koi half sleeve project referred by an old customer about an hour away. And he hunted me down. It was a pleasure making this guy a tattoo and I also made a sweet day of the dead tattoo for his lady. We did double wammy sessions, tattooed each of them for about 4 hours each time they visited me.

Healed pic of the tank tattoo. We won first place at the Tattoo Hollywood Convention for best chest piece! My first trophy, yee haw.

Portland, Oregon here we come!

My beautiful friend Carlos Rojas made the painting for this flyer. Can't wait for the IPA's and some Voo Doo Doughnut!

Tattoo repair

These project are always a challenge but I always give my best and I am very happy with the results. In the near future I'm going to make a portfolio of just fixed or covered tattoos.
This rose tattoo was fixed for a friend of my cousins. More flowers to come on her arm, we are sticking with all black and grey.

This is Aram, he works near the shop and came in asking how I would be able to fix this tattoo. The red lines are the beginning of my sharpie sketching on his arm...
Here is the fixed product. The church is the Etchmiadzin Cathedral in Armenia, this church stands in the home town of my client.

a before b and c

Updizzle, 3 in tha A-Mizzle.....
And eventful past couple weeks eclipsed, as we anxiously await our second child.
A betta fish tattoo for a long time customer of mine. This lady can run her ass off.
P-40 Warhawk tattoo for my wife's homie, this was pretty fun. Wish U could glide my hands across one a real one.
Booze and bowling chest tattoo, in progress, a tribute to his parents. His mom is a bartender not a wino.
Added the magical background to the owl tattoo I did about 5 months ago. And she had the awesome idea to do some cholo script, very sweet!
Finally got to make a custom tattoo for my friend George. I made him a sweet throw back tatt of a kewpie doll holding a cross.
A twist on an old favorite, the sugar skull. The drawings I made for this customer spawned a new idea for me to play with, turning animals mexican! Here is an example...
A cat turned mexican, for anybody seeking a tattoo of any subject matter "turned mexican" holler at me.
thank you, and have a wonderful morning.
