Also look at Lotus Tattoo as well. Plus Kings Ave and DaVinci. Welcome and ask us any questions you like. If you have anything specific, also, let us know, we can guide you in the right direction. I love getting tattooed in Manhattan and Brooklyn when I am up there. Which will actually be for the opening @gougetheeyes, ooof, I really need to finish this painting.

Before @Pugilist got tattooed at Adorned we ate at the Blue Ribbon fast food chicken sandwich place and it was really good and from what I can recall not far from Kings Ave NYC either.

Just got this blaster today by Ron Henry Wells while he's in town at Lombard St. Tattoo. A somewhat new take on his drippy wolf designs - I'm so happy with it!

Got my lemur rose morph yesterday... it's a partial cover up, I'll get another soon with background to cover the rest. Also, the tattooist is going to go over the purple in a darker shade once healing is done in order to fully obscure the design underneath it.

I'll be there all three days!
I'm helping out in a booth with Marvin Moskowitz and Timmy Adams.........please come by and say hi...I am easy to spot! LOL

maybe his expectations are just laughable . . . ??
Matt or Stewart are both excellent choices.

I thought this was going to be another thread about wear to buy a fundoshi

Your best bet is always your tattoo artist. They draw and tattoo things for a living.

I had my favorite tattooer in the world, Erick Lynch do this on Friday at Redemption in Cambridge Ma. My girl and I have been together for 7 1/2 years and got married in October…. So, I got her name finally :-) I'll have to repost this when it heals.

@exume I love that piece. It's absolutely bad ass!!
Here is my contribution. Also by Chad. Finished about a year and a half ago. I went a bit smaller.
One heck of an experience. Some very rough moments for sure!!! Chad is the best though!
2 sessions.

A. Great Calvin Candy drop.
B. It's chaos. I always say I'm not going to go. Then I go. Then I think "man, I shouldn't have gone."
Then I'll run into friends and we make fun of Pitbulls, Al Flictions and Eddie Munsters.

For first timers of the Philly Tattoo Convention...
It can be a bit much. Think 800+ tattooers. And pit bull rescue booths with dogs wandering around. And Al Fliction from Stink Master. And Dante from Clerks. And Eddie Munster.

I recently finished a short documentary that profiles Norwegian tattooer Morten Transeth. I also added English subtitles to the best of my ability, so remember to switch captions (CC) on if you need 'em :)


Go to http://instagram.com/morten_transeth to see more of his work.
Thanks for watching!

@suburbanxcore i just scrolled through thousands of dog and cat photos in Graeme's instagram to find it

Not sure how well this will upload from my iPad, but Grez posted this one today.
Edit: should be more clear. This is not on me. I wish!!

He does more along the lines of new school work..If you want an artist that does a blend of realism/neo traditional,check out @ DAVE WAH - Tattoo Artist

Sounds like foliculitis.
I had that before when I had my legged tattooed.
I just had epsom salt baths and dry healed.
I would refrain from using any cream or lotion, likely making things worse.

I went to this convention for the first time last year and got tattooed by Ron Wells. It's kind of a shit show with the amount of people and things going on, but it's ok. There are a ton of terrible artists there, but there are usually a decent amount of solid ones. If I wasn't already getting tattooed at Kings Avenue that weekend I might go try and snag something.

Hi guys. I haven't posted anything in ages, but that doesn't mean I don't stop by regularly and check out whats new. The past year was kind of a rough one for me health-wise, but I'm cautiously optimistic that things are looking up. I only got one tattoo in 2014 but that's okay, as it was the last big spot I had left open. I spaced out getting this tummy tickler done from May through October. Just now got around to getting a healed picture (and a shitty one at that) of it. Done by my local dude Paul Pearson at Bright Ideas in Murfreesboro TN. (P.S. Although we used a print of the original Pharaoh's Horses painting for reference my plainskin Missus prefers to call it a three headed horse with a gunshot wound).

done by Chris O'Donnell at his private studio
happy new year to all

Welllllllll....if it makes you happy get another one, right?! Went and saw Paul Dobleman at Spider Murphy's last week...please excuse the inflammation


Hope everyone is having a great New Year so far!

my back piece by Chris O'Donnell

less than 30 days until appointment #1. time to start planning the travel logistics.

For those heavy flow back pieces.

I just went with a plain white sheet fabric. Now it looks like a rainbow though. Mostly red.
