Some photos i took while in Erie last weekend

My last trip to Erie carried and extra surprise in the form of fresh inspiration. I received the privilege of being around some of the best graff writers in America. Here are some of the photos I shot while in town for my  last guest spot at Ink Assassins. please enjoy.

just when you think two of your favorite things cant get any better!

Ernst Heinrich Philipp August Haeckel

recently ive been looking at some of the works from famed German biologist and artist, Ernst Haeckel.

Phaeodaria, top, is probably one of my favorite works.

the war within our hearts

Fridays opening went off with out a hitch, attendance as well as spirits were high, I will post pictures as soon as i can. Thanks to everyone that come out to celebrate the arts, please call if you'd like to make an appointment for  tour of the works. The show will run to April 2nd

horiyoshi iii hawk

Heres a Horiyoshi III piece I did on my friend Nate. Being that I am a big fan of the great master's work this was a humbling and very enjoyable piece to do. Keep an eye out for this arm later it may be a sleeve next time you see it!

death vans

I did a pair of vans for my friend Cory, as a gift to his little brother. These were the first pair I've ever done  and it turned out being a great experience, lots of fun, and it got me outside of what i normally do. Hope you enjoy.

tree frog for april

I got asked to do an African Tree Frog by my friend April, who works near the shop, I see her nearly everyday and she had been wanting this particular tattoo from me, her first tattoo.  In the beginning I tried to stress the fact that I may not be the best for the job, but she insisted so I, always eager to please, told her would try my best to give her what she wanted, a few hours later this is what we came up with.

kiyo dragon

  

 

Here are a few photos of a dragon ive been working one for the past few months by request of one of our patrons, Mitch here at the shop. It probably has about eh, 14 hours? in it, i cant quite remember, but alot of the credit for its layout goes to the wearer. Overall its been a fun and very challenging experience, i can truly say that I have taken away a great amount of knowledge from doing this project, and there is still yet more to come. Also a big thanks goes out to Al Garcia for his help in making this photo possible.
