For those of you who don't do "myspace"... I thought I'd show you one of my new paintings. I did a tattoo of a death moth on a friend of mine and was inspired to do this painting. It's on a gallery wrapped canvas so it doesn't need a frame. The price is $1200 plus shipping costs. Also canvas wrap and paper prints will be available soon, in a very limited number. Probably 25. I apologize for not having my painting gallery up on the site. I'm working on it. Thanks for your patience. If anyone is interested in this painting or any other painting, give me a call and leave a message, or email me.

Thanks so much,

jeff

appointments?... if you have emailed me...

I want everyone to understand... I have a clientele list of close to a hundred current projects. Close to sixty are one to two year projects (i.e. a back piece averages 40 hours, which adds up to an average of ten appointments, equaling one to two years, assuming an appointment every month or two.) The rest need multiple sessions. I work on one to three clients a day, five days a week. That means there are a max of sixty appointments a month. with over a hundred current people to try to service... that means it takes at least three months to see everyone just one time. I get tons of emails, and phone calls, and people coming by the shop, everyday, in spite of my blogs, and phone messages stating that I am currently not taking any new clients. It is nothing personal, if I haven't returned your calls or emails. I am unable to. It would add two hours to my, already busy day. If you want me to work with you... check back every couple months or so, realizing it could be a year before we connect. There is no waiting list. There is no back door. there are no exceptions. If it's not worth the wait... There are tons of amazing tattoo artists out there... Of course, if they're that good, you're going to encounter similar circumstances with them.

Bottom line is, good work takes time. Be patient, don't compromise, and don't take it personal.

I'm deleting all my emails to date and starting fresh. I'm going to try and respond daily to all inquiries.

My sincere apologies, if I've given you any false hope for something sooner.

Thanks SEATTLE!!!

Hey everyone! Wanted to say thanks to all who attended and stopped by the booth at the Seattle Tattoo Convention... Gloria, Damon and Staff, Crash and Kent from Tattoo Artist Magazine, Jones Soda Company. Thanks to everyone who let me tattoo them. This was one of my best shows! I loved every piece I got to do, and am just so honored each time someone trusts me to leave my mark on their body.
I got 1st place for "tattoo of the day" on Friday and Sunday, which are going to be on the new "Jones Soda" bottles... look for them in stores soon! Also got 1st place for "best Leg" Thanks for coming Dawn! Crash, the Editor in Chief of "Tattoo Artist Magazine" picked me for a feature in the spring issue!!! What an honor! They're launching their public version of the trade magazine, "Tattoo Collector" look for that in stores too. Got lots of encouragement and of course was humbled by all the good work being done. Keeping me on my toes!

Next Stop... LONDON!
