minor site updates!
I’ve rearranged and freshened up a little.
there’s now a garden page, I will be fleshing out a little better.
I finally put in a portfolio gallery, it still needs a little work.
And the main page has new image and links!
fresh tattoos under the fold.
some recent works, smoky days

I’ve been tattooing as usual, though:
putting together the art studio
all of my gear has been packed up for months waiting to be moved into the studio building.
the last few days I’ve started to set up.
flash vs “want to do” art – what’s the difference?
22×30″ sheet of flash.
it’s pretty simple.
flash is a drawing or design that a tattoo artist will do on anyone, repeatedly, it’s not a unique or singular image.
they’ve drawn or purchased the rights to tattoo it as much and as often as they want, and it’s often really cool.
“want to do this” means the artist has drawn a custom design and wants to do it, once, on one person.
the word “flash” is the difference: flash means images you can “flash” to show customers what you can do.
in the old days it was up on the walls, or in racks, in every shop and you would walk in and pick something.
it was all pre drawn, repeatable, ready to go.
