Zach's new tattoo

My childhood friend Zach has been tattooed by me a few times before. I always get to tattoo fun stuff on him with no restrictions. Thats always good. I am always happy to tattoo my close friends because its a good time of telling stories, talking shit, talking family, and usually doing cool tats. The only thing bad is that you hope you do your best on the design and not fuck up. Well, thats the case for me. I don't tattoo zombies usually but I am always whiling to try new things. I am very pleased on the outcome of this tattoo and I would like to venture out a little more in the zombie world. This tattoo reminds me of some 80's skateboard graphics or metal band designs. I have always been a fan of that stuff and thats why I had a lot of fun with this tattoo and I would like to do more of them in the future. Thanks again Zach for the opportunity.

Kali's new snake dagger tattoo

My friend Kali's snake named Jesus out grew his cage. So she asked me if I would like to have it. I have been wanting to get a snake for while now and figured having an empty cage to look at would make the process of buying a snake happen faster. I asked Kali if she would like a tattoo as a way to say thank you for her kindness. So this is what tattoo design we came up with. Looks like I got two gifts, awesome cage & awesome portfolio photo. Thanks again Kali!

Jamie's new tattoo

Jamie from Grizzly State records was looking to get a new tattoo and was recommended to come see me by my friend Mogli. He wanted a rose for his mom but didn't want the words. I like when people can just get the art work without having to get the explanation. I personally, am not too keen on having words put on my or under my tattoos but I am a personal kind of guy. Jamie ended up being an awesome guy and we had good conversations on keeping a positive outlook on life. I was happy he decided to let me tattoo this design for him and hope to do more tattoos for him in the future. Thanks for the music and the fun tattoo!

Lance's snake torch tattoo






Lance is a friend of mine that I worked with me at my last tattoo shop. He's was a shop helper/apprentice at the time but now he has started to tattoo and I wish him all the luck. Lance, I would like to thank you for asking me to do this awesome image on you and for letting me have all the free range with designing it. I  hope you as happy as I am with the outcome!
