I've been out of the game for a few months, but I think I'm going to email Scott Sylvia about something else from him at the Prestige Convention in Philly in May. Just have to think about what I might want...

On Sept 14th I have 5 hours booked to start my second sleeve. I am an old school hip hop head so its going to be themed around that. Problem is that its less than 2 weeks to go and I don't have a plan. If I don't come up with some thing soon I may have to reschedule. I would love some suggestions... I grew up on and never grew out of 80"s and early 90's hip hop. RUN DMC, Beastie Boys, EPMD, Rakim, etc... Anyone have some artistic ideas for me?

First rib tattoo coming up on Tuesday. Should be an experience. 

 

I've been trying to tell the people in the office that Tattoo Tuesdays would be a great morale booster but they just laugh and blow me off. Guess this will show 'em. 

 

So, when I got done with that piece on my ribs Tuesday I walked out of the shop thinking "That was intense, that should do me for a while"  But then I woke up the next day thinking "That was a pretty awesome looking mace they had drawn up hanging on the wall. I wonder if they are just waiting for someone to get that?" 

Turns out they had just put that on someone but I was kinda surprised that after the most painful session I have had I was ready to jump back in before it had even scabbed up. 

I feel like I'm about to go on a run of a bunch of tattoos in really short order.

@Boiled Dove This! I remember calling my husband as I left the shop after having my right ribs done (four hours). I told him to remind me of that moment if I EVER said that I was doing my left ribs. Well, that lasted about 48 hours until I was planning to get the left side done. :) Congrats! Enjoy your bender!

Managed to get in with Greg Whitehead at Kings Ave for the weekend. Excited to see what I end up with! After that Grez for a lower stomach piece in the summer and hopefully a couple of smaller ones before then.

Congratualtions man! I see Greg around Atlas and he's always pumped on tattooing not to mention the work he's putting out is bananas!

Awesome. Can't wait to see what you come out of that with!

I have to email Dylan about getting in with Grez again since my plans for next weekend seem to be falling through at the Prestige convention. Haven't been up to Grez/KA since October, so I'll have to remedy that!

So I'm searching about the interwebs for artists in NH and I come across this guy in Portsmouth, about 45 min from me.

I'm thinking his stuff is pretty solid so I go to look up his IG and it turns out he is also Klaude Cloud. Perhaps I will have to take a little drive.
