And just like that…BOOM!… Jayson has a FLOWER LEG!
Actually part of a piece that runs the length of his body…but more of that to come.

Thanks Jayson!

This was such a fun time!
I super enjoyed this piece and the time I got to spend in it.
This Hornbill was a new bird subject for me. And there’s still a LOT of birds I have yet to tattoo. Let me know if you have a fun idea, bird or critter or imaginary composite or whatever.
HORNBILL with MANGOES, thanks Xinci!

KITTY all done—another view of this KITTY-GRIFFIN, black-footed cat edition.
This one was so fun, and took some serious dedication on the part of my client. I always love the big, weird, and wild ones!
Many thanks Sarah.

And I’m happy to announce this show happening in Alameda, CA, Mar/Apr.
A celebration of BIRDS, it opens Mar 13.
This is one of my pieces in the show, but there will also be prints at very affordable prices.

The full image of my piece NOVOCAIN for the upcoming show “Imagine”, opening at Nannygoat Gallery in Petaluma, CA on Feb 20.
………………………..
The prompt for this show was to imagine a perfect world, unfettered by the dark or negative things.
Well, for me dark is not necessarily negative, but instead just the other side of light (the natural consequence of being raised by Jungian psychoanalysts!). So here is my dark little Utopian vision of a world after humans, where our tools are nesting material for everyone else.
……………………….
If you’re in the area, come to the opening—this new-ish gallery deserves our support, when we needs art more than ever!

CHINGA LA MIGRA
We will close our doors tomorrow in observance of the nation-wide shutdown to strike against the brutality and illegality of the ICE reign or terror.
We support our immigrant neighbors and the protestors who object to their mass deportation, the terrorizing of their communities, and the government’s racist agenda.
We stand with the Twin Cities and mourn with them.
……………………………………………………………………………..
Please consider striking to the extent you are able. At very least, avoid spending money since credit card transactions are a critical part of the machine (and please support your community businesses on Saturday).
Do whatever you’re able to demonstrate your outrage to the system.
……………………………………………………………………………
Red Kestrel will re-open Saturday
