Jellyfish begins

I began the outline for a jellyfish tattoo this evening. Very exciting. I was having one of those art days where right of the start everything was going smoothly. The transfer went on perfect, the ink went in as I wanted, and the client did her best to no laugh or giggle as much as possible. It feels good when things come together..now heal so we can get into the goods!

Once again, the client and I had a tattooing marathon. 3 days in one week. Whew! We both needed a rest after that week. We got the majority of the color work in for the left leg. A couple more months and we'll do the right leg! then....FEET! Doom doooom doooooommmmmmm No where near done with these....it is going to be a long road. Fun, but long.

Okay, well the floral lines are done, healing and waiting for color. Very excited. No I didn't do the block or the hand print. Just the flowers weaving around them. Hooray!

Tattoozzzzz

One of these days, I promise I will have photos of healed lovely tattoos. Not red raw angry tattoos. When that happens you can rest assured that I will soon after launch my web site for Tyrant Art. 

I am so glad to be tattooing. It is great, amazing, wonderful way to make art. My clients have been awesome, fantastic people. All of you. Seriously thanks. To my clients as well as the people in my shop who are so supportive of my learning process....

Flowers, paper planes, and taboo...

The client loves pilots....what can i say?

Whoot! This client was so much fun. What a pleasure working on this woman. Funny too.

Ze Bats......

Ze BATS! I had fun doing these. Though I am not quite sure if I will ever get used to hurting my clients. I know they are agreeing to do it and all, but I still have a hard time. I guess so long as it's hurt not harm 'eh?

Fishies revised

I love the blues in this,......I know I know....I need to take photos after the heal! But I often times don't get the chance. So I have to take them when I can. I will try and get a shot of this one after it heals all the way. The clients skin is awesome for blues

Dragon Phase 2...almost done.

Water Dragon: Phase 2...color......
....next phase. Finishing touches....clean up and HEAL!

More ink, More people..

My most extensive lettering so far. Way fun. My volunteers are great!

A lot of my beginning tattoos are touch-ups of old tattoos friends have that need some new life

This one is a left and right arm.....the client had me copy her mom and dads hand writing.....awesome fun

Sea Dragon: work in progress....I'l be sure to post color picts in a few more weeks when its all healed up.

HUGE work in progress.....both legs....ankle to upper thigh...
My client was a BEAST she was so tough! I cant WAIT to do the color on this. The line work here is light so the color can take main stage. 

 The flying fish and the waves. Another tough girl....tattoos the arch of the foot! YOUCH!

Hectors Paw Print......This was loads of fun to do....

 Work in progress......fish !!! Super fun color....I love blues!
