As much as I love reels (sarcasm) , I always love seeing healed tattoo pictures more. The ability to zoom in and actually look at the artwork instead of watching gimmicky cuts with trending audio is what I prefer.. so I’ll be doing both from now on. Gimmicky reels and photo posts to appease everyone like myself and all the kids. Anyway here’s a healed jackalope at night running through the forest themed sleeve I finished recently. Oh and it’s got lots of #coverup in it as well. Thanks for looking as always! And remember supporting local artists is free, just like comment and share and you’ll be helping me out tremendously!
I've been quiet on here, but trust me, I've been busy with some awesome projects. Take a look at this #Kali #backpiece I'm working on - there's still a lot to come, including flames and a snake! What do you want to see more of from me?
Photo by @jsintaylor, making me look like a whole snack. But honestly when I am concentrating I make crazy faces and apparently can look stern. But anyone who’s been tattooed by me will tell you I love to talk and make lots of jokes. I honestly feel good conversation makes the whole tattoo go smoother and faster. I love to get to know you during our appointments, it’s one of my favorite parts of the job. #portlandartist #pnwart #tattooartist #tattoodad #malemodel #plussizemodel #plussizefashion
Happy 40th birthday to the most gorgeous and amazing wife ever @jd6185 ! This magical lady rocks my world and makes every day wonderful!! She keeps the madness in check and the wheels of this amazing family greased and moving along nicely! Show this amazing woman some love and wish her a happy birthday!
Had a wonderful trip to Hawaii with my good friends and amazing wife @jd6185 ! I miss my Hawaiian friends already and can’t wait to go back! See you soon!
Here’s a peek at a very fun amethyst #dragontattoo that’s in progress! This sleeve is commemorating thier favorite #dnd campaign. Rendering a fully gemstone dragon has been a challenge but also a very fun time. I can’t wait until this piece is finished and I can show you all of it! Lots more to come! I’d love to do more #dungeonsanddragons related art and tattoos. Is there anything you would like to see me create??
I finished this back piece a few years ago and unfortunately my client moved away before it was healed so I never got any good healed photos. Which is the primary reason I never posted any pictures of it. I do love it though and feel like it deserves some attention. Usually if I feel like the picture I take won’t do the tattoo justice I don’t post it.. not because of the tattoo itself but because of my own insecurity. The internet is a wild place full of meanies. I’m trying to really put that part of me aside and just post the images regardless of my own hangups. Anyway thank you for looking. Please , if you want support and help hard working artists, it’s free to like comment and share. #backpiece #backpiecetattoo #tattoo #tattoos #tattoolife #tattooartist #tattoosformen #tattoooftheday #tattoosforwoman #tattoosofinstagram #cooltattoos #colortattoos #illustrativetattoo #ink #pdx #pdxart #pdxlife #pdxtattoos #portlandlife #portland #portlandtattoo
I remember in December of 1989 when the Romanian dictator, Nicolae Ceaușescu, was overthrown for destroying the country’s economy, starving and murdering the people, and ruling with extreme authoritarianism, secret police (the Securitate), censorship, and brutal repression. I also remember seeing video on Christmas in 1989 when him and his wife were sentenced and dragged outside and shot to death by a firing squad. Cults of personality and authoritarian regimes that forcefully try tell you how to live, how to be and what to believe never end well. It always ends in disaster and bloodshed. You cannot claim to love freedom and embrace authoritarianism or authoritarian leaders.
