Free Hannya tattoo...

2011-10-26T00:38:00.000-04:00

I have an image of a hannya mask that I would like to tattoo. If you are interested I will tattoo the first person to email me free of charge, the only stipulation is that you must get it exactly as I want to do it and can make no changes. If interested please email me. I will not be posting the image or will I send it for you to think about, buy the ticket, take the ride.

Grime Part 3...

2011-08-27T22:51:00.002-04:00

Kappa Tattoo...

2011-08-23T13:39:00.000-04:00

So, this was a pretty big deal for me, I had the honor of tattooing this kappa on my mentor Troy Denning of his upcoming Tattoo Age on VBS. This was such a huge deal for me as I have Troy to thank for almost everything that I have and am today. If you don't know his tattoos, get your head out of the sand and go look up his work and his studio Invisible NYC, be prepared to be blown away.

VBS Tattoo Age GRIME part 2

2011-08-22T17:06:00.000-04:00

Another walk in, this was this clients first tattoo, think he made a real solid choice.

Anchor Tattoo...

2011-08-03T16:28:00.001-04:00

Been real busy between work and moving so haven't posted in a while, have actually been really bad taking photos of stuff all together. This anchor was a walk it tattoo, again, more of a simply style for me, something that I have been liking recently. Sorry about bloody photo, was the best that I could get.

Liberty Bell...

2011-07-13T11:34:00.006-04:00

On my friend Mark, has been getting tattooed by me since I began, a cool person and a good friend, was very pleased with this tattoo.

This was a walk in.

New Tattoos...

2011-06-27T14:10:00.007-04:00

Here are a couple tattoos that I have done recently that I have really enjoyed. The rose on the foot is a cover up, the geometric design is from an cloth pattern that the client brought in and I tweaked a bit, and lastly is a hand of buddha that was a walk in.

Finished Hannya for Doug...

2011-06-15T14:56:00.004-04:00

Finished this tattoo yesterday that I started at the convention. Tons of color, something that I have been really into recently. After this tattoo Doug and I counted a total of 28 complete tattoos that I have done on him, not counting filler or background, couldn't ask for a more solid, easy going client. Thanks Doug, you are the best.

More filler tattoos...

2011-06-13T15:06:00.004-04:00

Mathias is a real cool guy from Sweden who has been letting me to some fun little tattoos on him recently.

Panther and Dagger....

2011-06-13T15:03:00.004-04:00

Got to do this tattoo on artist Dave Cook. We have talked for a while about trading some tattoos for artwork and I think we were both really pleased with the trade. This is his own design, you can see more of his work at dmcook.carbonmade.com.

Rose of No Man's Land...

2011-06-09T13:19:00.004-04:00

Raven and Hour Glass

2011-06-09T13:18:00.006-04:00

Had fun tattooing this on Erin.

Knot...

2011-06-04T21:50:00.002-04:00

I was really happy to tattoo this knot under one of Marina's tattoos, she is a ripper and we will miss her at Flyrite.

Dream Catcher....

2011-06-04T21:49:00.004-04:00

This is this young ladies first tattoo, she told me she wanted it very colorful, she got what she wanted.

Traditional Eagle...

2011-06-04T21:47:00.006-04:00

Walk in...

Day of the Dead Profile...

2011-06-04T21:45:00.005-04:00

This was a very specific client request. Billy wanted an exact copy of something, talked him into a few changes so that he wasn't wearing someones else's tattoo and think we both walked away happy.

Dotwork Flower....

2011-06-04T21:42:00.002-04:00

Seeing as dot shading is all the rage, I felt that I had to keep up with the Jones' and pull this one out. This is an on going sleeve and really psyched on how it is coming out.

Cupie doll on a swallow horse....

2011-06-04T21:40:00.004-04:00

This was one of the more wild ideas I have gotten from a walk in in a while. The photos aren't great, but really, when are my photos ever great? Anyway, was pleased with the outcome, like doing tattoos like this.

Convention Tattoos...

2011-05-16T23:41:00.003-04:00

Here are a couple of tattoos that I have done this weekend at the convention. I would like to thank Jeff Rassier and Stony St. Clair for drawing such amazing designs, I only hope that I did them justice.

The hannya and roses is in progress while the panther and flowers is a good example of filling in all the tiny little spaces that other tattoos make.

Spider tattoo

2011-04-28T13:43:00.005-04:00

Black Flag spider for Charles around some other really cool tattoos.

Day of the Dead Sugar Skull Tattoo

2011-04-28T13:42:00.007-04:00

I said the other day that I had never really done a day of the dead skull, then within a week I do 3, kinda weird. Anyway, this one has poppies for eyes as you can see.

Zen Circle...

2011-04-26T14:09:00.009-04:00

Inside of arm.

Gingher Scissors...

2011-04-26T14:09:00.008-04:00

I was really happy to squeeze this tattoo in at the end of my night yesterday. This is on a really nice lady who is a seamstress and wanted this exact pair of scissors that she uses. I was really happy with the tattoo and really psyched to meet her and her husband who were really nice, easy going people, a real treat sometimes when most of the time you barely get a "thank you".

Black and Gray Tattoos...

2011-04-22T13:06:00.004-04:00

I usually work with bold colors, but I did 2 black and gray tattoos today that I really enjoyed. The first was on a client that didn't even know he was getting tattooed, came as a friend of Mike Lucena's client and decided to get a tattoo. The second tattoo I am a bit more hesitant to post due to the fact that the client brought in a photo of a pre-existing tattoo and wanted it exact. If i knew who the original artist was I would give credit but alas sometimes the internet does not work that way. I tried to keep the integrity of the piece as much a s possible.

Peony and Butterfly Tattoo

2011-04-21T14:03:00.008-04:00

This was a walk in that request more tribal coming from the pre-existing tattoo. This is what she got, in my opinion way better.

Lotus Flower cover up...

2011-04-20T15:08:00.009-04:00

This is a cover up of a roman numeral tattoo, one of my personal favorites.

Girl Head and Kablamm comic book style tattoo...

2011-04-20T15:07:00.004-04:00

Here are 2 tattoos on a repeat client, cool guy, fun tattoos. The Florida orange is bright as day, Time Tells pigments, best I have seen in a while.

Never Again...Discharge Tattoo

2011-04-20T14:54:00.006-04:00

Redid this fucking great Discharge tattoo, I couldn't say no. This thing was originally done by Elio Espana on Adam, the original bass player of Agnostic Front. Brought it back to life after 20 years of hard living.

Zombie Girl Head finished....

2011-04-20T14:49:00.004-04:00

Finally finished this tattoo from almost a year ago. There are a lot of subtle colors used for the bruising that don't really show in the photo. This is going to turn into a full sleeve, can't wait to continue.

Traditional Dagger and Heart...

2011-04-14T13:01:00.005-04:00

No Dame, No Pain, what more can you say? Did this tattoo today. My client was mid forties and this was his first tattoo choosing to go big and tough. Was super pleased with the outcome and pleased to tattoo such a cool person who let me do it the way that I wanted, doesn't happen that often.

Girl head and Scissors....

2011-04-13T18:14:00.007-04:00

This is a girl head, those are scissors.

Family Crest Tattoo...

2011-04-07T21:03:00.006-04:00

Started this today.

Painting for Marco Serio...

2011-04-06T22:55:00.003-04:00

This is a crappy iphone photo of the painting that I have made for Marco Serio for when he visits. Marco was and always will be a HUGE inspiration in my career and without his help I wouldn't be here, this is just my way of trying to thank him. Will be making prints if interested.

Amber's taxidermy mouse...

2011-04-04T21:49:00.002-04:00

I got this lovely little mouse business card holder from Amber, what a treat. She made it for me in her taxidermying class.

Painting...

2011-04-04T20:53:00.001-04:00

Did this painting for the shop, might make a banner of this for the New York City Tattoo Convention in May.

Torch Tattoo...

2011-04-04T14:17:00.005-04:00

Pretty straight up torch with cloud backgrounds. Going to be finishing this sleeve with a bunch of filler tattoos, should be fun.

Bread and Butter Tattoos... Script, Rosary, and Circles

2011-03-30T23:43:00.005-04:00

I love doing every and all types of tattoos, and to be honest, what makes up most of my day are tattoos like the following. They might not be the most mind blowing tattoos or the most original, but I try very hard to give them all my best. The following are some that I have done recently that I am proud of. The circles are entirely drawn on, no stencil. The lettering is super blurry but I think held well, no blow outs. The cross was stenciled but the rest drawn on and the script is just script.

Japanese Benten Tattoo...

2011-03-30T23:28:00.005-04:00

I started this over a year ago and finally finished today. I also know that this is not exactly a Benten but I don't know what else to call it. Horiyoshi II.

Devil Tattoo and Purple Peony Tattoo

2011-03-29T21:03:00.006-04:00

Did this Rassier flash on the assistant at Fly Rite. I have always wanted to do this tattoo and was psyched to get the chance, hope I did it justice. The peony was a cover up walk in, she was a real trooper for sure.

Home Sweet Home...

2011-03-27T14:56:00.000-04:00

Finally got everything hung up in my station, feels real cozy now. Steve Huie did a great job revamping Fly Rite, looks great and couldn't be happier to work here.

Hannya Mask Back Piece, Session 2....

2011-03-27T14:55:00.005-04:00

Was really full of my self here, told Chris that we would at least get all the hair done. I am a horrible judge of time, took a lot more out of both of us than I thought it would, live and learn.

Tribal Native American Haida Style Bird Tattoo...

2011-03-23T15:53:00.005-04:00

This is one of my favorite tattoos that I have done recently, feel these designs make a perfect tattoo. Was really happy with the outcome.

Tyler Two Tat and Tommy One Tat...Elephant, Skull, and Eye tattoos

2011-03-23T15:49:00.004-04:00

Stayed at the shop the other night till around 2 tattooing 2 of my good buddies, Tyler and Tommy. Tyler really went for it getting TWO whole tattoos in one night, what a beast! Tommy picked a cool Dan Higgs design.

Finished Mermaid and Eagle Tattoo...

2011-03-23T15:47:00.005-04:00

Finished this piece of Garver flash on Dean the other day, was happy with the turn out.

Photos of Snake and Dagger, American Eagle, and Coney Island Stomach Tattoos

2011-03-16T01:21:00.005-04:00

When I was learning to tattoo I was taught that taking a good picture is sometimes as important as doing a good tattoo. Well, I learned that the hard way today. Have been using my fiancee's camera for a bit getting good results for me, till today. Did the lettering and eagle tattoo today and took healed photo of snake and dagger. Was real happy with all tattoos till I saw the crappy photos, realizing that I took all photos on the wrong setting. Live and learn. Will try to get better pics of all shown.

Hannya Backpiece...

2011-03-10T12:10:00.001-05:00

Thanks to Chris for toughing this out, it was not easy. This is the beginning of my first large scale japanese backpiece, will add new photos as works continues.

Flower, Heart, Executioner, and Bat Leg Filler Tattoos...

2011-03-08T14:25:00.002-05:00

Did these three little tattoos last night. Were a lot of fun on one of my favorite clients. I did both the bats a while back too.

Healed Cobra...

2011-03-07T16:39:00.005-05:00

I know I posted this way back,but got some good healed photos. This is one of my personal favorites.

Black heart with dagger chest tattoo

2011-02-15T23:27:00.003-05:00

Dot shaded this large black heart, it is all the rage these days. Birds on chest done by Eli Quinters.

A Moth and Skull Tattoo on Gillian

2011-02-15T23:25:00.004-05:00

Gillian is one hell of a talented artist, you can find her tattooing at Invisible NYC and Infinity Tattoo. She also sat like a god damn champ.

Garver Flash...

2011-02-14T15:15:00.002-05:00

Did this on the shop guy Dean at Invisible NYC. He is a good man and does a good job picking up where I left off.

This design is of Garver's flash from 2000 I believe. Very cool set if you can find it.

Tiger

2011-02-11T17:13:00.004-05:00

My girlfriend and I went to get tattooed by Mike Perfetto, one hell of an experience to say the least.

Punk Rock Chris' Chest...

2011-02-11T16:45:00.002-05:00

I like this one.

Ship for Chris...

2011-02-11T16:42:00.002-05:00

One of my best friends from growing up. Chris wanted a ship, so I tattooed a ship on him. That is a true story.

Another hand walk-in...

2011-02-11T16:28:00.001-05:00

Still think it is weird when people get there hand tattooed on a whim, but who am I to judge. Client wanted this Steve Byrne design, changed it up a bit.

2011-02-10T18:57:00.000-05:00

One of my favorite tattooers, this is the epitome of a bold traditional japanese tattooing to me.
