Tattoos that I’ve done.

Being around unsavory individuals and burnouts my whole life, I’ve seen my fair share of shitty tattoos. Myself included. But there’s just a certain, authentic charm about these kinds of tattoos. Very intimate, very in the moment and experience based rather than trying to look aesthetically & visually pleasing. But understanding the fact that these are (sorta) completely permanent, the appeal of fucking someone’s shit up with my hand for art became irresistible to me. I had the itch and I had to take it out on some clean virgin skin… or atleast some clean spots. Here’s what I’ve done so far. ↓ ↓

I hope to do more, but I don’t have the energy and I’m constantly traveling and moving so it’s hard to keep my word and stick to a planned appointment. These are all on my friends though, and sticking true to my love of art and socially unacceptable counter behavior, I’ll continue to only tattoo those I’m close with in completely unsterile environments, in living rooms, on my couch. All so you can have an experience and hopefully some art you enjoy on your body forever.

+ I’m light handed. I won’t hurtcha too bad :)

Also. New tattoo!
