A Sexy Pair

Here's a set of drawings I recently finished. Ones simply for the sake of drawing, the other for my good friend Steve who's an amazing builder and fabricator of all things with a motor and somethings without and the mastermind and man behind Mayhem Motosports.

I'm am always very hesitant to post anything art work related on the web especially those which are even remotely line based do to the incredibly high amount of "poaching" that occurs. I'm sure it's a waste of effort but please don't be a thieving bastard and steal my shit and use it for other purposes or say it's yours, it's just grimey.

As always thanks for looking.

Slacker

When it comes to this blog it would appear I'm a bit of a slacker. I'm going to attempt to be a little more consistent on with these pages in the future. I've a lot of projects currently in the works and look forward to sharing them. Here are few few recent tattoos for your visual stimuli.

Our Time Has Come To An End

I lost my best friend today. After 13 years of unfathomable companionship and loyalty we had to say goodbye. I find it amazing how time passes, it's paradoxical. I can't remember a time when he was not in my life yet at the same time looking back it seems so brief, as if it was yesterday. I honestly can't recall grief as powerful as what I experienced at his passing and I feel nothing but tragedy at the mere thought of never being able to share time again. It has been hours and if feels like years, this world will forever be different to me and my family. I miss you buddy...

Almost There

I've been working on this painting for the better part of 2 years. It seems a little excessive in hindsight but I feel it's coming along rather well. I have very little to go( the upper most right corner) and the finish line is in sight. I'm quite excited about it and felt the need to share even though it's a little premature.

Black Line

For many years I have enjoyed creating primarily line based work with only black ink. The work done in this manner serves no purpose other than my pleasure, a personnel project if you will. Here are a handful of such works. I have future plans for these pieces and others which are of the same vein. I look forward to sharing this upcoming project with you when everything is arranged and the time comes. As always thank you for looking and your interest in my work.

Yokai

Here's my most recent custom munny, a Yokai. I had a rough time getting a decent photo, so I apologize for the lack of quality and quantity.

I've always been fascinated with the enormous catalog of Japanese demons many of which fall under the category of Yokai. Yokai are a class of supernatural or otherworldly demons which can sometimes be malevolent while others bring prosperity and good fortune. These are creatures of folklore and there's a great deal of them, everything from possessed inanimate object such as lanterns and fabric to lumps of flesh that roam around graveyards and one of my personal favorites, the "filth licker" which is a creature that has an serpentine like tongue and and can be found loitering around public restrooms and other dirty locals.  This one here that I created is just your typical variety, a generalization of the subject matter and really isn't found in folklore, the closest would be the Kuchisake-onna, or Slit-Faced Woman.

Gives You Wings

Here's a handful of tattoos that are relatively recent and I've either forgot about them or was simply to lazy to post them and somehow all three images include subjects with wings.
