Just got this from David Parker at Black Heart Tattoo in San Francisco. Do I really need to say how I feel about this tattoo?

so we went to the Fresno,CA tattoo expo yesterday and had all saturday afternoon with Oliver Peck. Central Valley Tattoo . I got these two, . . . . and this one on my left lower thigh,it's a little bruised now. and Saniderm on it. . . . and my wife got this . . . . we had a really great day getting tattooed together at a convention,it was awesome.

I've been gone for a while. I'm stoked to see so many great tattoos being done. Started my back with Horitomo in December.

May 20th and 21st. Anyone going to be in Dallas for this? Elm Street Music and Tattoo Festival

Yesterday i had my first session (~6 hours of tattooing) of my first tattoo, on my inner forearm. The pain was a little unexpected :o, especially around the wrists, but i can't wait to have it finished! WIP, done at Radical Ink in Bucharest:

hi lanelle relax there's nothing you can do now but wait and not worry about it until it is full healed. don't let the post tattoo anxiety get the best of ya there is a high probability the tattoo will be...just fine !

yep ! I have an old one from 95 when my mom passed away,it's an old school tattoo. she was sick with cancer,so I got the main tattoo so she could see it,then I added the RIP & date after she passed,but I was very happy and she liked it when I got the heart and banner.

I think I'm getting tattooed for the first time since last summer on the 5th, this coming Saturday. Also, backpiece consultation. Wooooooo. - - - Updated - - - I think I'm getting tattooed for the first time since last summer on the 5th, this coming Saturday. Also, backpiece consultation. Wooooooo.

My $0.02 A G-rated tattoo shop...jesus haven't tattoos been watered down enough? A play area for kids...its a TATTOO shop not a dermatologist office...lots of swearing, war stories, casual nudity, dirty and taboo humour, mystery, intimidation and no bullshit. That to me is what belongs in a tattoo shop. Not a friggin ball room to keep the kids occupied for a couple hours. Its a tattoo shop not a McDonalds or Ikea. Get a babysitter. Sit down, shut up and don't move...that's what a tattoo shop is to me. And I don't think that sounds very fun for a kid. I got tattooed in shop and a tattoo enthusiast popped in with her kids to visit and say hello. It ended with mom spinning her brat around in one of the empty chairs and the kid bumping into the table while I was getting tattooed. I don't want to see your kids when I get tattooed. It's distracting. Tattoo time is my time. And you probably don't want your kids to see my balls hanging out on the table when I get my belt line tattooed. Get your ass-crack tattooed and then reevaluate your business venture. Keep tattoo shops R-Rated and 18+ (fake IDs accepted).

Booked in a month from now to get some filler glyphs around my armpit from Jondix. Looking forward a lot! Also it's going to be cool to get tattooed at Seven Doors, only visited before. Some days before I get my left elbow tattooed by Rudy Fritsch at the Scottish Convention. Iain Mullen did my right elbow back in 2012, second time I met him. Last year at the Scottish Convention Iain and Rudy finished my back. So having the other elbow by Rudy now feels like full circle in a way. Beautiful

Unfortunately after I finished my back the itch didn't stay scratched for too long. Started this piece on Thursday. I have been shitting myself about starting the front and I wasn't disappointed, there were some seriously ouch spots. Have to keep telling myself the end result is worth it. :)

I got this done today by Dan Climan, real stoked on it! I'm pretty sure it's based off a Owen Jensen design but I haven't found the original yet. I'd love to see it if anyone knows where to find it.

Heh, heh. Well, if you're going to wear heels, @SeeSee - then @Cork has to, too. Just being fair, here . . .

I still can't get a handle on what a Hipster is. Maybe the generation gap lets me down. Are we talking motherfuckers who change their style depending what the current trend is? In Australia we have a simple term for them types. "Wankers".
