As some of you may know I’ve been taken out by a neck injury and then a torn tendon on my tattoo hand. 😵😮😵. Haven’t been able to really tattoo much over the past month or 2. However after seeing the surgeon again I’m able to do smaller sessions🙌🏻🔥. I’m pretty excited cause I really like doing art on you all. If you have shading that needs to be done on piece I’ve started or outlined and would like to get back on it let me know. I have quite a few people I have to get back to and you should be hearing from me over the next few days. If you see this just call or text me. 🙌🏻. Thanks everyone! 💕
