Me little darlin'.

So heres my 3 yr old little TwistedMs.

Shes like a Halfling of destruction.

A midget of the Apocalypse.

The other day she asked me for a marker.

I held it out to her but before giving it I asked her;

"Will you use this marker for good or evil?"

She looked up and said "Evil!"

Thats my little darlin'!

Self Portrait

A local skate shop wanted something funky so I did a self portrait.

I think it really shows my personality and brings out my eyes.

Cover-up

Guy came to me with  what was left of a Sailor Jerry style ship.

Nearly every bit of black just vanished.  Never seen that before.

Ive seen the prison tattoos and the Kitchen Wizard home jobs where the black turns blue or purple, but the only hint of the old tattoo was the faint colorwork and a hint of the kids names, which I had to work around.

It was only like 10 years old too.

Before and After;

Even more differenter.

Okay, Ive been posting my charcoals here pretty much everyday for like a week or so,

and I would like to thank everybody for the great input.

I just started doing them less than a year ago and have been undecided as to how much energy I should be putting into that venture.

As some of you know, Ive been a dental lab tech for like 15+ years now, and despite the ROCKIN' image that title portrays,

its really not all that fun.

No really. It isnt.

You may be thinking its all glitz and glamor but uh, no.

So about 3 years ago I started into tattoos.

Yes, a common vocative progression; bouncer, lab tech, tattoo artist.

I'm a walking cliche.

Anyhoo, just because Im running out of postable scans (still a few on my camera I havent loaded yet), I thought I might stick a few of my tattoo jobs up for shits and giggles.

 

This one here is actually my very first client. Like many aspiring tattoo artists I practiced on grapefruit, pigskin, unconscious winos and also myself.

This brave soul is a chaplain at the hospital. Hard core Buddhist, he told me the imagery he wanted

and left the design and installation to yours truly. Still a lot of work left to do, (more color, more coils, etc etc)

but you get the idea of where its going.

The blue/green Venom blob on his shoulder he had done somewhere else.

Heres a closeup of the four armed Buddhist Boogeyman;

Completely Different

Now for something completely different.

Today scribble is a charcoal of a house someone grew up in.

They gave me a photo the size of a postage stamp that looked like it was kept in their wallet for 50 years.

I really didnt want to do it, so I quoted a ridiculous price that they immediately agreed to.

 

So here we are with the pic, framed ready to go.

Not even a scan, just a digicam shot because of the hurry they wanted it done in.

Apparently the recipient (Im guessing Linda) was going away so this involved a few late nights.

 

If I never see another goddamn brick in my life, it'll be too soon.
