Why yes I have a raccoon holding a cat, a cat screaming into a microphone and an opossum on a fence available for tattooing this week. Come play with me! #tattooflash #racoontattoo #cattattoo #karoketattoo #karaokenight #qttr #availabletattoos #illustrationtattoos #cheyennehawkthunder #tats #stencilstuff

I am deeply drawn to the symbology of mystical creatures and have been my entire life. Bringing these four into existence do that “ting” which happens for me when someone is singing and their voice is transcendent. Shivers happen down the back of my neck and I think.. Magic. All of us need magic in our lives. Another artist I really enjoy is @tori.lewii who does a whole bunch of deeply symbolic/ritual tattoos for people she comes in contact with across the states. I really enjoy her. She’s nomadic, so follow that soul while you can, and add some ink therapy to your life. #tattooideas #ritualtattoo #inktherapy #blackwork #qttr #love #conceptart #tattoomagic #availabletattoodesign #tattooartists

Couldn’t quite make the #shareyourstudio day happen for myself because I wasn’t actually at work, but you know what @patreon I love sharing my studio. So here’s an #availabletattoo of a #capricorn #mergoat and a knowledge that my studio is my sanctuary. My solace. My space to create weirdo art that turns into something beautiful. To all the artist studios out there- holding space for artist hearts.

Brandon's nephew is 19 months old and has been fighting a type of cancer that if it doesn't kill him, could make it impossible for this little boy to ever walk. But! And! Also! His nephew went into remission! So Take that! Fuck Cancer! Yes to Uncles who love their nephews enough to get a fuck cancer tattoo. So proud to put this on this Uncle’s arm.

The Spaces Between... an illustration I’ve been working on this week. Who’s getting a version of it tattooed? Let’s do this thing.

According to National Geographic, “Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the largest meat-eating dinosaurs that ever lived. Everything about this ferocious predator, from its thick, heavy skull to its 4-foot-long (1.2-meter-long) jaw, was designed for maximum bone-crushing action.”
What National Geographic forgot to mention was how much young T-Rex loves bubble baths!

Got to start this dope piece on @rekabnaes this week and I feel honored to begin his #herbalsleeve together. Sean is incredible and he slings herbs for #NewSeasons, totally gets collaboration as a client and also brought snacks, mushroom coffee samples and a tincture of #ashwagandha which is the herb we began on him.

Got a suprise visit from my old buddy @olskoolarts and he took this shot of me working on a little traditional rose in my backyard. It was nice to see him. Nice to talk tattoos. Nice to talk art and murals. .

Had fun with @drc3p0 finishing up the shading on their little thigh fox friend.

Got to tattoo two worms on the tops of @aloe_viscera's feetsies today. She makes me laugh so much, and I really enjoy her company and her tattoo desires. *grins* Shout out to all the gardner/healer/acupuncturist/herbalist/witchy women out there. You make my heart happy. .

Channeling a little Salvador Dali in our collaborative photography dance between Annch and I. She and her sweety (dude on the post right before this one) flew into PDX from France and Germans to get some old English script poked onto their bodies. Annch is a delight and makes me wish Instagram offered me an easy way to do an auditory overlay of her learning English outloud while lecturing Jason, and of her squeaking in outrage while we tattooed her ribs. #adorable .
.
Also, not featured, is the way this tattoo is hidden from the front and from the back if you're facing her straight on. We lined it up with her exact outer shape. How fun is that?!
.
.
I love my clients. I really appreciate their stories and the ways they come to the tables with their bodies in order to show up for their own lives. Some people come to me for healing. Some come for transformation. Others come for decoration. Each person who comes to me comes with a story and one of my favorite things about their career, is we are set up to spend good physical time with our clients, learning one another, building trust. .
.
Thanks Annch! Happy Travels. .
