Pizza Time!

So, thank you to San Francisco for being as good as it has been for me this week. I finshed up some flowers on a hip the other day. I can never say enough how much I love tattooing flowers. Easily one of the best tattoo compositions to play with.

Also, I did Nefertiti on a thigh as well, this week. I did her on one of my favortite clients, ever. Patrisha is 72 years old and has live around the corner from the shop for the past 30 years. I did her first tattoo last summer, and she decided to get her next one, and I was all about doing it. It is about 5 inches tall, and she is a trooper. Not a single complaint through the whole thing. SHe says nothing is worse than getting dental work done without novacaine, which I am very glad to not be old enogh to have ever had that done.

And for the finally..............

So, Jake popped in today wanting to get something ridiculous tattooed. We talked for a few minutes about recent drawings I've done as I showed them to him, and he was really into it. Randomly, kind of like a blurting out, he said "how about a slice of pizza riding a surf board, with a shark about to attack it". Well, naturally, as being a child from the 80's, anytime someone even says the words SHARK ATTACK I think of the commercial for the game. Look it up on youtube. Best commercial song ever.

Well, as soon as he said those words, I obviously muttered "FUCK YEAH". So I sketched a rough up for him, and he loved it. So, this is what I came up with for him. We went the Jaws direction with it.

Life is looking up. I feel a storm a brewin'.

Monkeying around......

So today I had a very good day. I tattooed a monkey on the back of a calf, and it was easily one of the most fun tattoos I have done in a while. He works on haight street, so if you are up there walking around, keep you eyes peeled for it walking around. This is done on the back of the same leg I did the open mouthed goblin a couple months ago. I made a painting of this to give to a coworker last week, and he saw it and was stoked on it enough to want me to put it on him. I love it when things happen like that. Needless to say, I have been excited for today since then. So thank you Adam, for making my week. There's no business, like Monkey Business.

Savior of the universe!

So this week I painted two new sheets of flash. I'm having a ton of fun painting, and can"t even stop myself. If you like any of these, and are interested in getting one tattooed, please let me know. I create these to let people know the type of work I like to do.
