I have been given the chance to work with Henry Kruger, whom I deeply respect. This is a chance I am eager to pursue. As he is a great Artist/Tattooer that I know can teach me much and is knowledgeable in the history of this trade. And is welcoming me with open arms. The development comes on a time by which the shop I am currently working at, is closing down (in May that is, it will remain open in April and only Carl will be working there). The reason behind this move without getting to involved, is that Carl is wishing to open a more private/intimate shop that he can work in and simply cannot fit the rest of us. I cannot, I repeat CANNOT extend enough thanks and respect as well as love toward Carl, as he gave me my shot in this business. And for that I will be forever in debt to him and miss him very much so. If your in the area, feel free to stop in and say hi to the old man, he's a good man. Much respect to Carl Hanes, but onto the next chapter that is Sailor's Grave Tattoo! Come by and get something fun! 138 2nd street Eureka, Ca. 707 443 0666.
Got the rest of the shading in on the 'progression of lotus' piece and did some color as well. I think we're moving along nicely with this piece and she sits really well.
Got some color in on Jen's phoenix the other day. Did some touch up in the line work in the area's that rub. This happens from time to time. Worked in the black shading for next session on the feathers, and we'll be finishing the rest of the body next time as well. Thank you again Jen it was fun!
Some fancy lettering for your viewing pleasure.
Nothing to epic here, just a fun walk-in from last week. Good times!
Moving along on JP's Sleeve. Got most of the black background in and up onto the trap area of his body. Next session should be a fun one as we'll be adding more color onto the tree and blossoms. Should be fun. Thanks again JP.
