Mark Ryden Inspired Fairy Tale Princess
This peice was inspired by the Mark Ryden "St Barbie" piece. She didnt want an exact portrait replica she wanted it a little more illustrative. and with some changes that were personal to her. She flew all the way from California to West Palm just to come see me. It was really a fun tattoo and she sat like a champ for me we knocked this bad boy out in about 5 or 6 hours.

Sublime Slushbox
First off all before you ask. I hate that fucking band, this painting has nothing to do with those jerk-off’. Prior to that band forever ruining that word it used to be a pretty cool car color. In fact it’s the color of my 1928 Model A which looks strikingly similar to this painting for a reason. I took a little liberty with the blower on the motor and technically i painted a 1930 model a not a 28-29 but whatever.. let’s call it a wish list. Also before I go on I feel I must mention this; If one more person brings in a CD of their horrible music and ask me to play it while they are getting tattooed, I don’t think you’ll like how the tattoo comes out. I’ll probably just tattoo two gay unicorns humping on you. Or in the event that you actually asked for said unicorns, I’ll tattoo a big dick on you with a banner that says “I have shitty taste in music please kick me in my balls or vagina and suggest better bands to me”.
This one really kicked my ass. For anyone that has painted with acrylic in this style I’m sure you ‘ve figured out the secret is to paint form the furthest point back and paint layers on top.
So the entire time you have to keep in mind the order in which to paint each section of the painting.
For example…
The blue background first then the gray ground. Then the passenger side of the car, and passenger floor boards etc, then the door panel and shifter and the seat etc… all the way out to the body of the car. Oh wait first you have to paint some of the engine so that the cowl sits on top of the distributor and bell housing… even the door has a few distinct layers to gain a true three dimensional effect.
There are about 15 layers on the engine alone. I think the biggest headache was that I painted it on Illustration board instead of Masonite which really messed with my speed as I had to let some of the acrylic soak in before I could get an opaque coat.
But i digress…
It’s fun to get back to some OG hot rod shit. I haven’t really painted much of it in the last year or so. Damn Tits and Tats project took up too much focus. (I know I let a little bit of tits and tats creep in, old habits die hard) So I’m going to try to get some of these Hot Rod sketches I have laying around finished keep an eye out...
Shazzam Fuckers!

Bang! Bang!
I tattoo a lot of my paintings, and sometimes I tattoo something and love it so much i have to paint it too. This was a collaboration of both. I had the sketch worked up about three months ago transferred to canvas and ready to paint but it kept getting delayed and I had a little creative block on it. My friend Jenna saw the sketch and wanted it as a tattoo. So basically I had no idea what colors or how this was gonna be painted so i ended up working out the colors as we tattooed her. We went balls out on the bright pink hair and the style of the tattoo was very smooth and pop realistic, So i carried as much of that as possible into the painting. So glad we rocked out the pink hair. Thanks again Jenna!

darth vader backpeice session 1
First 2 hour sitting for a Darth Vader backpeice. More to come.
Just for future reference if any one asks,
Hey would you like to do a (fill in any Star wars character) tattoo?"
The answer is always:
"Fucking absolutely Yes, sit down and lets start!
Even a Jar Jar Binks tattoo as long as it involves him getting fucking with a light saber while the yoda takes a shit on his head

Seppuku
I've had this painting stuck in my head for a while now. I finally got around to painting it. I’m really happy with how moody and somber it came out. For those who aren’t versed in Japanese Seppuku, the practice was part of the samurai bushido code. When the samurai brought shame to their feudal lord or shogun, also instead of falling into the hands of their enemies or as a form of capital punishment.
it was done with a wakizashi (shorter sword then a katana) or a tantō (knife) with a cloth wrapped around the blade so they wouldn’t lose their grip or cut themselves. Which apparently was important even though they were about to disembowel themselves..
After the left to right cut was made the samurai’s chosen second attendant, (kaishakunin) would take their head to lessen the pain. It was supposed to be done so that only a thin piece of flesh remained to keep the head attached.
Granted this was usually done in a ceremonial white silk robes but then you wouldn’t get to see her sweet back tat!
