New sketchbooks
Well It's been awhile since I put anything up on here. But I've got exciting news for anyone that's still paying attention. I just put out my first sketchbook. It's a collection of sketches from the past year or so printed up for your enjoyment. Mostly I'll be taking these around to conventions with me, but if you won't have a chance to catch me at any of those and still want a book, visit my website and leave a message on there so I can let you know how to get one. There should be some other sweet items to pick up within the next month or two as well, so I may start an etsy store as well. Anyways here's some pics of the sketchbook, and I'm going to try to keep this a little more updated from now on.

New in progress tattoos
Sorry the updates have been slow, but it's been a busy month. In late febuary I was in Detroit for a convention, and am now PA for the Scranton and Philly show. Andin between it's been exciting new projects almost every day. Whew, well, I think I'm going to have a few days off this week, so I''m going camping in Kentucky for my Birthday. Then it's back on the road. Anyways, here's the pictures.
first is the 2nd session on Daniel's chinese landscape half sleeve. A little out of my box for this one, but I'm really happy with how it's coming along
Next is the second session on Brian's St. Patrick half sleeve.
Then we have a supper fun zombie piece I got to do in Detroit. This is 3/4 of a lower arm.
I've also started half sleeves on some twins, Marcy and Melissa. No, they're not matching, but I'm pretty into how they're coming along.
this is a bio-mech piece outlined by another artist, so I can't take all the credit. Normally I wouldn't post a piece I didn't do completely, but I feel as though this one was in a very beginning stage when I started it, and have been able to make it my own. But, for full disclosures sake, I didn't do the outline.
Lastly we have Rick's tree, done on his leg. We're wrapping it around to the back and adding more color (there's some very muted browns and purples in there)
thanks for looking. More to come soon. Hopefully a painting update next time.

New tattoos
It's been kind of hectic lately so I haven't had much time for updates. Here's some tattoo projects I've been working on over the last month or so. First up is an Owl piece done at the Orlando Immersed in Ink convention
Next are a couple pieces I got to do at the Tattoo Arts convention in Baltimore.
I got a chance to do some more work on my friend Kassie's arm. We've been working on this arm for a couple years off and on, and it's getting pretty close to being finished
These two are a couple projects I got to start last week in the shop. I did the upper part of the graffiti piece a year ago, and the lettering was done by someone else. So this will bean interesting progression in combining those two pieces into a comprehensive half sleeve.
And lastly is the first session on a project I started to fill in another sleeve with some organic textures, feathers and herbs. I blacked out the parts I haven't done.

Color studies
I just picked up a Wacom tablet this week. A couple of the other artists at Skin Abrasions have been messing around with them so I thought I'd try it out as well. It's an interesting tool to play with, my results with it so far have been mixed between acceptable and mediocre,so obviously there's a learning curve. But I have a few pieces that I posted last week colored in with it so I'm going to post them for your viewing pleasure.
This little guy came out all right, but I'm having a hard time getting rid of that airbrushed look. On top of learning the subtleties of the tablet, I'm having to get better at photoshop and corel painter as well
This next one turned out better and was much quicker. Definitely makes a quick color study easier to do
For this one I took a sketch, repeated it and stretched it to fit on an arm. I want to play around with this sort of thing more because of how helpful it was in laying the design out on the body.
Ok, hopefull ymore to come this week if I have time. I'm going to Orlando on Friday morning for the Immersed in Ink tattoo convention, so things might be a little hectic. As always, thanks for looking.

Sketches
Here's some more biomech ideas I put together for this week. Primarily sleeve ideas. I'm going to try to come up with a bunch of smaller pieces that can be done in one session in the next week or so. We'll see how it works out, usually I don't think biomech looks very interesting unless it's done on a large scale. But I want to have some sketches ready to do at some upcoming tattoo conventions. Anyways, here's this weeks drawings.
