There's new video on YouTube made and about Jeff Gogue. It's him getting his 101 hours of work on his back in Japan, but also includes his work. He talks about have to surrender to be able to get a piece like that. Some interesting thoughts.
I love his works and really enjoyed the video.
Jeff Gogue - Surrender
thanks for sharing @JAC1961 !
i remember watching these when he originally posted them. he took a bunch of them down and i was kinda bummed. glad he compiled the experience into this new video!
I use the wet heal method - A&D covered by saran wrap for 2-3 days, washing and reapplying a couple of times a day. Then I use a little lotion a couple of times a day for about a week. Less is more, no need to stop using lotion if it's still itching. I try to remember to put cocoa butter on all my ink once or twice a week.
I don't think I've posted any of these:
Grim design by Morten Transeth at Blue Arms Tattoo in Oslo:
Morning star by Siggy from Death or Glory in CPH, done at Tattoo Nation in Kristiansand:
And a little dragons head by Hanse at Blue Arms Tattoo in Oslo- who is currently at Idle Hands in SF till the end of February.
Went back for another session today. Made great strides of progress. Shop was quiet on a weekday. I took the gang a box of hot wings and a chocolate cake. Artist thinks we need one more touch session after everything heals to get the final blending and shading. The areas near my armpits almost had me standing up.
