Hamburg - Nov. 2020

During Covid I had some time off to visit friends in Hamburg, Germany...
Great dinner, good laughs, chatted about Art & even made a new friend named Sammy, aka Harry The Dog.

Whenever a tattoo is executed the subjects matters face would have to be a minimum of two thumbnail sizes... This would properly balance projecting from 5 feet away.
Also would enable you to touch up if needed 15 years from now with
the guarantee of a non undesirable dark cluster but a clean looking new tattoo.
So when I spoke to my dear friend I suggested the inside of the fore-arm!
We call it the "La Creme de la creme " meaning it is the best place for details seeing he wanted a full bodied angelic subject matter. This area is special because the Sun never hits it and you don't have to worry about banging it around like so many mechanics I know! not to mention one of the loudest canvas spaces to tattoo because when you go to shake someones hand it definitely catches attention!

As far as the outer fore-arm, hand size is the minimum size because as you can see the sun does hit that particular area and the tattoo can cluster into darkness... simplicity is key!
Also hand size is the typical size that can balance almost to any human body depending on how tall the client is.
This piece is in progress.

Amour - Nov. 2020

I Tattooed Ben Savage in my earlier years from Boy Meets World but this year I was blessed to tattoo my second Nickelodeon super star Alina Mour one of the most humblest sweetest souls I have ever meet.

Symbolism - June 2020

There was a time people would create, just to give something beautiful to the world which we are so blessed to live in and a time when people understood the work of all of the arts. I was blessed to embrace the culture of the past recently fast forwarding into the present while walking through the cobble stone city of Praha.
Here is what reflected through my studies while embracing timeless sculptures sketching away.
Prague. Praha.
The name actually meant.
“threshold”

Happy 4th of July

One flag, one land, one heart, one hand, one nation evermore...
God Bless America and all the ships at sea !
A piece that took me 2 sessions in detail but was so proud of its ending results and its intimate significance.

THE 3 ELEMENTS - August - 2020

The 3 Elements
Integritas, Claritas, consonansia
The 3 Elements of a Beautiful Life-
Integrity, clarity & harmony.
Emilio & Julia
A month ago I snuck out of Germany into Prague jumping on a plane & barely making it to Sweden on a mission.
“ never let a good crisis go to waste “ aka corona.
I left to see others behavior during these times but also to find myself more.
A spiritual journey if I may....
I came to find out that a simple adjustment of attitude is all that was needed so that working becomes living,
true balance.
Allong with my personal studies god etc.
I came across many more people that carried this with them, very stunning ! “Magna Anima” Radiant soul-
As they stood out I let life play & well as I am an artist I started my journey documenting it...
life’s treasures for whom carries this magical energy between each other.
The cocept of beauty is fascinating. That which is beautiful has proportion in harmony, clarity, and integrity.
Real Beauty vs. Skin-Deep Beauty
The experience of being exited when meeting someone who is then outwardly beautiful but unfortunately only to be repelled when they open their mouth?
Beauty is in fact skin deep, this applying to lives as well as faces. Sadly, our popular culture seems to consist more of beautiful zombies living ugly toxic lives.
But every once in a while you run across one of those special people who may not be supermodel but is nevertheless incredibly magnetic, attractive, and appealing.
The person’s inner light. These people have lives of proportion, clarity, and integrity. Their lives are beautiful and they love living. You can’t hide the light inside them.
