Half Back done by Yokohama Horiken of State of Grace Tattoo in San Jose, California.
Unfortunately the camera on the phone doesn't do it much justice. :P

The *original* NYC Tattoo Convention - NYC Tattoo - Home
Its on for 3/7 to 3/9 in NYC at the Roseland Ballroom. My artist, Studio 69 Tattoo, will be working and I have plans to take a couple of hours of chair time one of the 3 days. It would be nice to see some people from here show up too.

@Cork thanks! Seems like every time he is at Northstar, I go there the Saturday afterwards. Dana is an amazing artist and he has been doing a killer job on your back piece...congrats again on the progress. Maybe I will get to see him if he comes up to NY for the convention in March.
Hopefully one session of sumi black to go for the koi in the end of March and then onto color in April. Feels great to have the background done. Oh by the way...think you mentioned earlier...have a new reference for pain when getting work done...it was livable but that rotary was humming ;)
