Grief is the cost of love, but knowing that makes it no easier to pay. RIP Dipstick, Companion, Friend, Protector, Strength. While I never got to pet that good dawg, I’m honored to memorialize her in this tarot card tattoo. We mixed a bit of her ashes into the ink we used for the eyes of the tattoo. Tattooed or not, the animals that come and go from our lives will never be forgotten.

It often seems that we humans don’t really deserve dogs, but I think they’re there to help teach us to be better—to love one another, live life with boundless enthusiasm and to live in the moment.

Check out my Anime tattoo! Pictured here ~1month healed. When we did the consultation about this I had no idea what a Vocaloid was and I could feel the wrinkles in my face deepening every time I was like, “what? A baguette? But this isn’t from a cartoon?!”

Many many hours of research, drawing and tattooing later I now see Vocaloid memes everywhere and the Bowser peaches song that gets stuck in my head is the Miku version.

A tattoo about,
Medieval Madness Pinball,
and some dope Haikus.

Released in 1997, estimated that there are only 4000 copies of this game out there, fun for novices, complex for competitive pinball siege masters. Medieval Madness is hella cool and its coolness is only surpassed by Trent, probably the only fan to ever get a tattoo about it. Be cool like Trent and get a unique tattoo.

Freehand sick ass displacer beast for Kalena. Gap filling between her rainbow DnD dice (which I added a little color to but did not tattoo) and the snake and dagger (also not by me). Buuuuut you can also peep healed tattoos of script, left chest and element emblem, craft collage and comic panel that I did. Kalena is an amazing client and friend whom I’m super grateful to get to work with. :)

Nudibranchs and a cat skull. Pretty cool first tattoo if you’re asking me. HMU for your tattoo of sea slugs or feline skulls or whatever other weird stuff you wanna ink into your skin.

Pictures aren’t as popular as short videos, but I think sometimes it’s nice to look at something where the movement is in your head and not in the rectangle in your hands.

Sometimes I feel like posting something more than once is cheating somehow—do other people feel like that? As if there’s rules in Instagram, and there are, and they’re mostly unspoken. I’m probably breaking one now talking about it, but you know. maybe that’s why the company is called Meta.

Anywhy, I already made a reel about this painting but I want more attention on social media and I thought maybe someone might like to look at this painting for more than the 3 seconds it appears on screen at the end of my 40 second video where I’m trying to be clever. Here it is. Ta-Da 🤗.

If you wanna take something beautiful like a flower and f it up a bit digitally stretching and warping it to be a little uncanny or glitchy and then make that a permanent tattoo in your skin-suit, maybe I could help with that. DM me and we can chat about the metaphor of grinding chrysanthemums up in photoshop.

Do you grant me permission to post still images of art I’ve already made videos about?
