Thanks! These are some older examples. The non-pinup girl pieces were made when I was starting out and are my versions of other artists work. Like I said, I unsuccessfully pursued tattooing, so I don’t have much understanding whether or not any of these designs would be practical as tattoos - they’re more or less just pieces created with Jerry’s style in mind. They are attempts though.
Not good with introductions, but I am a tattoo enthusiast who once attempted to pursue a career in tattooing. it didn’t really work out but I still enjoy creating flash though, in the traditional style. I prefer creating pinup girls, but, and I hope it’s not a big deal, I create digitally. Norman ‘Sailor Jerry’ Collins is my main influence, and I started by buying his books to study and emulate his style. I’ve come to the point where I’m bringing in more of my aesthetics to aspects of the classic style, hoping to stay true to the spirit of it, while working toward achieving something that’s also original.
