Finished up my chest piece by London Reese in Lake Forest, CA. Took 18 hours on my back to
piece together this dragon. Was inspired through various influences and references. London is a really cool and easy going guy. 10/10 would get tattooed by him again.
Vatican Studios is seriously wicked too. Rad artsy layout, with some seriously talented artists.

Got a few more hours in on my custom dragon chest piece! So close to being finished but so stoked on how it's come together.

2nd session on my Mandala half sleeve by Daniel Meyer https://www.instagram.com/dasleitbild/ was pushed back a month, to November 10th! Started it in the beginning of September.
A little bummed on waiting, but its only a month. and i'll have better time to heal on the 10th with only one day back at work, before the weekend to rest.

Hopefully finishing up my Jondix/Chad collabo back piece next Wednesday 10/19. Appointment with Chad at State of Grace! haven't been tattooed there since 2010, so i'm excited to feel that vibe again.  Dreading more pain on the back, but hopeful it's the last time!

Such an awesome piece! I'm so impressed! Your tattooist is so talented!!!
Bahamut wings are so beautiful <3

Many people have seen this all ready I guess. By Jondix, 11 days ago. Had such a great time. Stayed at the shop past midnight, talking and eating after the session.
Everybody should get something from him. Super good heart, attitude and knowledge of tattooing and art.

"So you just up and made a major life decision without any second thought about it?!"
- my dad after seeing my chest plate
LOL
he was pissed... poor guy. too conservative to think rationally or openly at times..
i'd love to respond to that with "...pray hard"
i'm torn between being a pacifist by nature and my desire to wear art of which holds a negative connotation to those who believe in such things..
