new prints and shirts: which do you want first?
rebuilding my print/shirt shops and I want your opinion! Take the poll and let me know.

reworking my patreon with YOUR feedback!
I’m rebuilding and restructuring my Patreon today, and I’m wondering what you all would like to see:
- for free (there will always be some free content there!)
- for small monthly subscriptions (what would you pay 3 bucks a month to look at?)
- for bigger amounts (tattoo classes or info that’s more guarded? art tech? readings from my books? what???)
- physical goods- books, preprints, zines, art prints? early access to sales of originals, discounts?
if you have suggestions, ideas, things you’d like to see, thoughts about what you would pay for or what you think would be worth paying for (and your thoughts on costs!)
please let me know. you can see my patreon at this link.
feel free to go look at the free content there, see what I’ve been posting behind the paywall with the previews, and let me know what you think. I’m interested in YOU and your thoughts; your criticism is more than welcome!

come in costume if you want, but you don’t have to- I just love halloween.

I’ve been tattooing as usual, though:

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.

spring thoughts ’23
I’ve been broke this month because I was sick in March. I’m thinking about doing a trunk sale, just maybe ten pieces. I’ll probably go on back to social media to see if there’s any interest.
I’ve been working:
and I’ve been busy in the garden as always.

I’m backing away from most social media as a primary posting location, it’s a process, but my work and essays and events will be announced here and on Patreon going forward. reposts from the site will go to sm after a brief pause.
I’ll be maintaining groups, friendships and portfolios at all sites but am in the process of removing content and migrating it here.
love you guys. thanks for still being around!
Halloween week!
