Good call. He's a Virginia native and a fantastic human being to boot!

I have a serious IG crush on Tony Talbert. I heart pretty much everything he posts.

My regular artist just got a painting he commissioned from Whitehead, and it fucking rules. And I mean, I guess those other guys are ok, too.

Tattoo Forrest! Because I'm in the mood to fantasize about backpieces even though that probably won't happen for years and years.

One of many downsides to looking at stuff on the internet: it's easy to fixate on artists who live thousand of miles away while ignoring the amazing talent the next few towns over...

Bummed I missed my window with him so many times, wish I had something from him, he's so good!

Mines always been Valerie Vargas and Steve Byrne, they were the first people that when I saw their stuff on myspace I lost my shit. Chad aswell I just love how his style isn't constant you can tell it's his work but it dosnt always look the same as recent pieces,

The excitement about some tattooers come and go. I've had some major instant crushes on a number of tattooers for like half a year, like "wow this girl does the best lady heads I have EVER seen!" but then after a while it seems like it's all the same tattoo being made, but different subject matters. And then I grow tired and find someone else to be psyched about.

Some names has sticked with me for a long time and I am still inspired and amazed by most things they pull out of their heads. To name a few this would be Josh Stephens, Jeff Zuck, Rudy Fritsch, Guy Le Tatooer, Steve Byrne

Almost, very close to being on the list: Robert Ryan, Tony Nilsson, Smith St guys
