Crooked rice in Fort Courage! - - There's a story attached to this piece that'll no doubt become a tune/lyrical strain.

"FRUIT ROTTING ON THE VINE" - - I'm going to occasionally smash out pictures like this called "one minute sketches" as a challenge to myself to be more instantly precise and less overthought which tends to ruin the process. - - https://www.patreon.com/samhaycroft - #adoptanartist #supportthearts #aussiebattler #penonpaper https://www.instagram.com/p/B_3ZbcYgSs-/?igshid=r0zsz1ok6kzv

BONE CHICKEN & BUTCHIE BOY I put down the pen & paper for a few minutes whilst tending to a garden matter and the girls drew a portrait of a butchie boy and its travels around the page that they'd found nearby. Hey @nikkiglazier !!!

Isy made me a timetable so I better get crackin! - Smudge food into my face (too easy) - Do a poo (clear cartridge/clear mind) - Get dressed (jarmies) - Draw (commission pieces, future tattoos, kids book) - Record music (@chaosatplay @iamduckeye ) Those last two items will be exclusive via my artist subscription site so your support will help carry me through this employment hibernation period. Thank you kindly. https://www.patreon.com/samhaycroft #adoptanartist #aussiebattler #supportthearts https://www.instagram.com/p/B-8NmT3BNEo/?igshid=1f2qwfs3fruxy

Today I inked my first tattoo in store at @dead4eva_designs in Cowes, Phillip Island! Thank you so much to everyone near and far, too many to name but you know who you are, who've supported me. Whether offering your skin for my art, subscribing to my Patreon artist site or just plain enjoying my art, I am truly grateful for your support. My studies of this fascinating art over the past 18 months, with over 100 hours of self tattoo, were validated today in a simple 2 hour sitting; a dream come true. Feel free to browse through my recent line drawings to get familiar with my style and what I'm confident in approaching given my current skill set as an apprentice. Should anything pique your interest or feature elements you'd like, we can always collaborate and draft something up here behind the scenes or wander into Dead4eva Studio 90 Thompson Ave Cowes to flick through my portfolio. Anyway, once again, truly thankful to Dead4eva Designs Senior Artists Jason & Nicole for taking me under their wings and giving me a red hot crack at it all! Stay tuned and watch my new artistic endeavour develop, maybe even get amongst it ya ratbags! #tattooartist #tattooapprentice #aussiebattler #thankyou #supportthearts https://www.instagram.com/p/B9giUmYhV4_/?igshid=1kds4rjxsngkd

"Nah, sorry Guv'nah, Icy's got swimming lessons in the arvo and once again you've double booked me when I'm gettin' some of her tattoos inked in.
