Just a recap for those who tune in:

Project 001-Najwa's Snowflake: SHE GOT IT DONE. But...it wasn't colored. Apparently the tattooist thought the design was TOO INTRICATE and decided not to color it. Thats what I get for not having my tattoo studio up and running. She loved it, thats all I care about. If she's happy, I'm happy. I am super stoked about having my art on someone. It still looks good and Im glad/honored she asked me to be a part of the process.

Project 002-Dia De Los Muertos: Im still in the process of vectoring this piece. With work and moving, I havent really had a lot of time to settle down at the 'ol drawin board' and art away. I still love the piece, and am trying to make time to digitize it. Im doing it on Illustrator for those of you curious, and as you know the Pen Tool is as easy to use as it is unpredictable. If youve used it, you know exactly what I mean.

Project 003-Roberts Raven Skull: He loved it. It was a late Bday present, Charcoal on Canvas 24x36. He has a thing for skulls, and ravens are a sort of "grim mort" type of birds so that kind of went hand-in-hand.

Project 004-Julie's Turtle: I still havent received any reference photos or images that she wanted to use so im still doodling random turtles until she gives me those things.

Project 005-Sarah's Accordion: See Project 004.

Project 006-Napkin Octopus: I started combining different octopus sketches Ive done in the past and Ive come up with a tattoo idea that I would love to get done. It's an octopus wrapped around a crumbling anchor.  It has several connotations for which have too many details for me accurately portray in a post, but I will give updates on this.

Please feel free to leave comments, ask questions, start chats, etc. I am always open to meeting people and exchanging stories/ideas.
