good points, i'm just too lazy and post all my pics from my iphone these days, as my camera gathers dust. on a side note, i see a lot of hacks making laughable tattoos watermarking their photos, as if anyone would want to steal them! these are the same guys who write on their websites "DO NOT STEAL OR COPY!" hahaha...and they suck!

This is something that encounter at least once a week..... you know how when you have a dentist appointment you try to cram 6 months worth of flossing into 15 minutes before your appointment? or if you have to go to the doctor, you try to shower up before you go in for whatever is ailing you? WELL PLEASE FEEL FREE TO TAKE THE SAME LIBERTIES WHEN YOU ARE GETTING TATTOOED!!!!!!!!!! brush your teefs so it dont smell like you been munchin on shit sandwiches for lunch. if you are getting your foot or cankle area tattooed, please wash your dawgs and wear a clean pair of socks! dont come in after working in the sun on the job site with your work boots and wool socks. and for you goofy hipsters.... wash your feet, borrow some socks from your dad, and wear a pair of shoes other than the sorry ass moth holed pair of vans you bought 5 years ago and have been wearing EVERYDAY since. you're gonna spend hard earned cash on a cool tattoo on your foot only to slip said foot into a pair of sneakers that smell like onions and vinegar?! not so smart. do the right thing. and while you are at it, wear some pants that fit you and put your girlfriends shirt back into her closet.

Im not sure how much exposure he has had but ~ Tom Moser - at Goldrush, wow is all I can say, all the pics of his work are insane but a few that stand out to me are the blue yellow and red cobra that goes from the guys waist line to his chest, tiger head on the guys hand, panther on the hand, and the tiger at the end on his portfolio. I looked at most of the other guys pics at gold rush and they are all incredible, looks like these dudes are top of the food chain.

Yesterday I walked into a bank in Orinda, which is on the other side of the tunnel from Oakland, and is very much another world. One of the tellers jumped up and said "I like your skin." It didn't make me cringe, far from it, she really meant it, and I liked that she saw it as my skin and not a tattoo that could somehow be separate from the rest of me. Anyone else ever get this comment?

Doc Webb- San Diego « Occult Vibrations Remember this one? Hosted by Peter Fonda. I taped it off "Discovery Sunday" on Discovery channel.

Thats a silly question. Of course ill be in a tube top.

there are so many great variations on tulips.

shawn pretty much made my year by doing all these videos. thanks again buddy.

My wife's name is Felicia, and there's a flower called felicia, so I've got a few incorporated into a piece on my leg: I also have tons of roses, peonies and cherry blossoms, but I still want some nice Filip Leu-style mums.

I will have to take some pics with my camera tommorrow..the ones i am taking with my phone do not tell the whole story...but believe me...he is a monster....and he will never forgive me for posting something he wouldnt want out there... so is Angelo Miller and Mike Bruce at inksmith and rogers....Poor Angelo...every tattoo he does is either before or after one Mike wilson does....Tattooers get his Ink products they are calling it "Time Tells"....and Mike Bruce...he works at the Atlantic Blvd shop....real low key but just amazing...Eric inksmiths forearm...i thought Rollo did it but it was Mike Bruce.... All three do not care for alot of attention...but they are all real real good.... It is funny...there are so so many good tattooers now.....

The correct response: "Calvin Klein. Wanna see?" And that's when you start to unbuckle your belt.

This is the best I have so far! The lettering and negative drop shadow was done by Dave Cise at the Baltimore Tattoo Museum.......the photo was taken by my good friend Lauren Barnhart right after the tattoo was finished! Lining on the lower neck (woman blowing leaf petals) was done by Jon Glessner and his art as well....and the color was added by Brady Duncan! And everything on my chest you can see is by Brady as well!

i say work too. i sort of feel like everything else outside of tattoo just sounds awkward, but that's my own personal preference.

You are some sort of a saint Shawn. Thank you.

What's great is I've had a few messages from folks who were all "you know, I have a bunch of VHS tapes in storage somewhere".... I'm encouraging them to convert em to dv, even making lists of stuff they'd need and how to do it- or hell, send them to me and I'll do it. I just don't want this stuff fading away.

What ever Chad Koeplinger does next

See that was the point though. He was trying to find my breaking point. Me being a chill guy I was just like "eh whatever" and ate the sandwich/food anyways. It takes the fun out of the prank if you don't respond to it.

His name was Miller Cotton? Was this during the Civil War? And did he dress like Colonel Sanders?
