Saturday

Like I've stated before - there is a first time for everything, and today is the first time I'm working a Saturday at the shop - a sort of glum Saturday at that, weather wise. There was a TINY bit of snow falling from the sky this morning when I woke up and the mere sight of it forced the thought of swallowing glass run to through my mind if only for a moment. Then again, I hate snow and am desperately praying for a snow-less Christmas, which I know is extremely unlikely but dreaming never hurt anyone.
Anyway, back to the important stuff! Yesterday was pretty quiet over here, and Brito completed a lovely memorial tattoo (below) on a client.





But it doesn't stop there 'cause I have photos of work done on Thursday as well...



This dragon chest piece, an obvious cover-up, was started by Brito on Sunday. The girl was tough and sat through all the lining, another session or two to finish this up and I'm sure it's gonna look insane!







While Brito was working on that chest piece, Sean filled in some background and details on the piece above.



Thursday was a busy day for Brito. Aside from the chest piece, he managed to knock out this pretty monarch butterfly on a client that evening. He also had another small piece he did following the one above but unfortunately, I can't seem to find any pictures of the finished product on his laptop!

Well, that's all the news and pictures I have to post now, I hope everyone enjoyed the eye candy! Have a great day everyone :)

It's been a while!






The shop's been busy and I apologize for not keeping up with the blog! Christmas is coming and business is picking up a bit, which is good of course. I don't know about everyone else but I am always BROKE around this time of year, although it's awesome to see that people still have the funds to come in and get tattooed even with Christmas creeping around the corner. And speaking of Christmas, just a reminder that we still have gift certificates available, so come get them while you can!
Even more good news: I have some photos of some recent work the guys have done for everyone to check out!

I wish I could arrange the pictures better and more to my liking but it happens to be very difficult...
The Anarchy chick right at the top is a piece Sean is finishing up for a client today and again, I'll get some pictures up of that once it's finished as well.
The Marilyn Manson up there is MY latest tattoo (not a big deal or anything) as of yesterday and is courtesy of Sean! It's on my inner bicep, was extremely painful to sit through and I am still in pain today, but looks AMAZING (clearly). There's still one more session to go to finish up but I will be sure to post some pictures once it's done.
The free-hand forearm piece was actually done on a friend of mine by Brito and turned out amazing; everyone loves it and Brito did his thing and beat all expectations, including mine! It's no doubt a very impressive piece.
Another piece done recently by sir Brito is the peony, which was done on the elbow and the colours look great!

Stay posted for more pics and updates!

GIFT CERTIFICATES NOW AVAILABLE

Gift certificates are in for the holiday season! Each gift certificate is good for one hour of service at the shop by the artist of your choice, and they're also discounted 25% than the regular cost of an hour (so they're $75 each). You can come down and buy as many as you like but keep in mind that there are a limited amount that will only be available while supplies last.

Aside from gift cards, Sean is tattooing a Japanese-style sleeve on Brito today.
