Bumblebee!

Couple of tattoos I'm really happy with, I guess I really needed the vacation!

panqueque!

Memorial rose

A young lady came in to get a memorial rose for her grandmother who died of emphysema and aunt who died of lung cancer. This hits a little too close to home, thought I was going to be misty-eyed ha.

all the houses are stable mates.

I have Victor the Cowboy-bot on the inside of my arm now, he looks great! Huge thank you to Thomas Kersnowsky, a very talented artist and I'm glad I work with him, I learn a lot!

Victor isn't just about being from my favorite video game (Fallout: New Vegas, if you are not privy), but also my favorite culture: the wanderlust of the cowboy. I think it may be why I like old western music, it's always about the wanderer, and I feel like I identify pretty strongly to it.. I've been working on a series of paintings to further explore that feeling of the lone traveler. Every painting is about the lone oasis in the middle of the night- the rest stop, gas station, or diner.

new stuff

Been a busy lady, and I've got a week until Atlanta.. so excited!!! I miss my little family and all of my friends.

So red and angry when I took this pic.. I really need a healed picture.

the very next day, a couple of guys came in from this client's gym, what a turnaround! Too bad they wanted something bigger, I passed it on to Thomas.
I've been on a Mad Men and comic book marathon as of late. Plus, painting a picture of waffle house for a friend.. still a busy gal!

I could sleep

Big Band of Horses kick right now, and back to Pinback.. good bands

Busy bee cont'd.

In the midst of all this work, I also had an art show to prepare for.. these paintings will be part of a show completely dedicated to cancer research funds. I'm proud to be part of the list of artists in this show.

Busy, bee!

America!!!

socks of red.

Fun lil' banger... i don't know how long that negative space will last in red though

blerg

Worst personality I've had to deal with thus far.. which isn't saying much, i'm lucky :)

forever humbled..

Keep up or fall behind.

Busy day tattooing and just finished a full page panel of the comic. Feeling mighty productive :D

one small step forward..

in progress, a good day. i hope i figure out these colors soon..

The P.O.W. was tattooed on a guy who reminded me a lot of Clint Eastwood.

cash rules everything around me.

A delightfully ironic end to the night. :)

Decided to take advantage of two stations being open today, and tried to get as much painting done as possible on the bigger piece. Pretty happy with it :)

Decide you must, how to serve them best. If you leave now, help them you could

Started, and it figured- I finally get poor Logan in for a session, and my first line on the stencil people start walking in. 3 groups of people! So just line work it is..

SO excited start this one.. we'll see how it goes!

Don't rain on my parade.

There's an awful lot of bitching in tattooing, gossiping and bitching. If you're not careful, it can suck the motivation right out of you just to listen to it..

On a good note, I received a very nice, very motivating message from a successful artist in Atlanta. Reminds me what I really want from my work, and not let the stupid little shit from outside sources become a speed bump.
