2 design + 5 hours + 2 happy clients



Last Saturday was probably the best day when it come to my own tattooing business. I did 2 tattoos for 2 different client and I must say, I'm stocked with the outcome and so are they. I am getting exposure, more and more people are asking if I could do them. My response is always the same - MY PLEASURE!

Matthew, a friend I've known quite a while wanted his first tattoo and I get the pleasure of doing his first. The design is an Aboriginal cave painting of a man holding a bow. His idea was to add more as time goes by, rounding up his lower leg/ankle. It's a fairly straight forward and simple design, it actually took me longer to set up than to do the tattoo itself.

Next, was Max Croft. He was the guy whom I did a tattoo for few months ago. He saw my sketches here on the blog, liked one of them and contacted me to get it done. Anyway, for this piece, he wanted to add more colour and expand the existing tattoo he's got on his right arm. The brief was, roses, as colourful as possible and integrate the old with the new. 

The before and after shot. Sorry about the quality of the photo. I will post a better photo once the tattoo heals up.
