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!

Dude, love your art..I wanted to talk to you in seattle but you were of course busy doing what you do and we ran out of time.
so glad for you, good to see more work. i was *just* talking about getting custom jones soda labels made yesterday. funny. love your new work, especially the lemur on the skull, it's really intriguing as a piece of art, just like the similar paintings you've done recently.
i'll jump on the 'love your lemur/skull' bandwagon. the flowing detail is perfect
The second one is simply astonishing, especially because it looks so realistic, it's like having that little animal posted in the arm. Great artist must have been.
I would like to getting a tattoo and these desings are amazing,Excellent pictures and I am going to keep money and I will get a similar tattoo.
Hey Jeff
Was just looking at a pic on your myspace of the black and grey turtle sleave, i was trying to find some flaws but sadly i cant. The shading is just so smooth.
Ive always wondered how to blend inks. Do you have to hold the machine at a certain angle ? or do you have to place different gradiations of inks next to eachother?
Just curious :)

It's really nice man, I love tattoo's and the last 9 months have been a constant and intensive seek for the right one to get done on my back.
