This is from Jeff Rassier's blog. I rarely use the word brilliant, but I think that it is appropriate here.

Hey guys!
To celebrate Mother's day here in the UK, me and Stewart have painted a couple of flash sheets with Mother tattoo designs.
We're putting them up for auction (originals only, there won't be any prints made) with 100% of the winning bid going to our charity of choice (mine is Age uk and Stewart's is Cancer Research UK)
If you like what you see, please bid away and help spread the word, the more bids, the more the charity will earn! the winning bidder can also have them signed to them or have a message written on the back.
We will also be tattooing mom tattoos on the day itself so should be fun and busy at the shop, can't wait.
Thanks for checking this out!

Done and done. Apologies to whoever had the high bid before, because I just jacked it up another 50 pounds. :)
Thanks, Stewart and Valerie. This is a great project and I love the sheets.

My first one done when I was 15 years old

Not bad for a 40 year old tattoo
My latest two weeks ago

So I'm pretty much a packrat. And I have 1000s of hours of VHS video in various rubber maids around my house. Some commercially produced stuff. Some literally one of a kind transfers of old 8mm films that were left to me when older friends passed away.
I found out last night that my "dazzle" video hub doesn't work with a mac, so I put an order in for a Apple compatible device. Soon I'll be transcoding old films to digital.
I'll try to remember to post links to anything I put on youtube here, though some of the footage (Cliff Raven tattooing naked) may not be everyone's cup of tea so I'll use discretion.
First up is some NON naked Raven, some classic Realistic Tattoo stuff with Hardy, Irons, Salmon, Zulueta and the gang. Just have to wait for the hardware to arrive!

i met my girlfriend/future wife in brooklyn 2007. i was doing a guest spot at saved tattoo, she was my final appointment on my last day there...we immediately knew we'd be together. after visiting her every month for 9 months, she moved here form new jersey in 2008. i owe EVERYTHING in my life to tattooing.
