Drawings n studies n doodles from earlier this year

A wonderful start to this Coelacanth piece for Cassie 🖤 I love the living fossil! Thank you for the trust.

I made this drawing a couple years ago when I was first making the decision to start learning to tattoo, and it has always had a special place in my heart.

very special placement and session thanks for looking!

pictures of intimacy

things I’ve been enjoying lately:
-CDs, tangibility
-I finished the game night in the woods for the first time and really loved it
-finding different ways to get into drawing. draw sessions on YouTube is a cool channel/ motivation
-serj tankian’s memoir (Reallyyy good)
-warrior cats series (on the first book thanks Elaine)
-game night playing blokus

I’ve got really exciting news to share soon also!! For now here are some drawings that could also be tattooed :)
