heres one i did recently on a buddy of mine

"This is my blog. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My blog is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My blog, without me, is useless. Without my blog, I am useless. I must fire my blog true. I must blog straighter than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must shoot him before he shoots me." There may be something out there like that, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't start your own. There are a million tattoo blogs out there that get updated 10000 times a day, but I love mine and think it fills in a little niche- you should do the same.

Tatts Thomas

Now, i dont know a wide variety of artists but im learning! I know he was mentioned already at the top of this page but i really really like the panthers that Nick Colella does. the way he does the facial features and the body(the way the back curves), its all amazing! i dont have pictures but while he was in Toronto at the beginning of May he did a couple on the a few members of the Speakeasy team. i got to see one of them in person and it was B-E-A-U-tiful!! lol after getting my little A. Dietzel piece i alomst wanted to stay to get my own panther!

you'd pay $2500 to watch me eat all of 'our' soup? SELFLESS.

i totally agree.. your portfolio can be more than just a tattoo portfolio.. there are no rules.. why not have an art portfolio out there instead? clean lines clear work win clients over but that doesnt have to be your entire book. if you are at a loss of direction with art, here's the best advice i ever recieved... keep everything you do in art. to find out where you are going, compare where you are to what you did 3 years ago. evaluating your progression can help your direction.

My wifes back at Frith Street on Sunday being tattooed by Stewart Robson and I am getting tattooed by you on Thursday.
