Pegasus tattoo

Finished this Pegasus tattoo on Sylvia's thigh today. I based it off an old huck spaulding flash design. Two sessions, about 2 hours each. She sits SUPER well, and I'm really pleased with the results.

Yokai on the mind

So I haven't had very many opportunities to tattoo Japanese stuff lately, and I've had even less opportunities to do some cool yokai stuff. I love Japanese demons and ghosts and such, so I pulled out my Kyosai book and began looking for cool demons that I thought would make fun one shot pieces and started drawing up some cool little guys to tattoo.

This guy is the first one I've done so far. Im Speculating that He's some sort of kitchen spirit due to the bowl on his head. Took me about 2 hours to do. Lined with a 3 and shaded with a 14 round. Thanks Eric!


Also got to shade some of Jay Garry's chest piece. Black is done, color next time. 


Thanks for looking!

A few new pieces


Skull and rose tattoo I did the other day on Chris. This was one of my "free with cash tip" deals that i did to fill a schedule gap. I wanted to do kind of an odd color scheme with it and I dig how it came out. 


Started this fruit bat on Josh from Redscroll Records in Wallingford. They deal in new and used vinyl and specialize in a lot of metal and hardcore stuff. Very cool shop. 


Outlined this parrot on Erica from Mass a few weeks ago. Can't wait for color. I also did the lily and butterfly at the top left, but not the skull and rose below it. Those were done in Hawaii and I don't know the name of the shop or artist, even though she's told me a million times. 

Also I will be traveling to Mooncusser Tattoo in Provincetown Mass at the end of this month. I'll be there for about five days or do for some fishing, tattooing, an partying with their crew. Kevin Berube from The newly opened Sharktank Tattoo in Easthampton Mass will be rolling out with me. Contact Mooncusser if you want to get in for an appointment. 

Thanks!
