Thanks to everyone already showing interest in these! I’m super excited for this fun project! I still have to paint the flash to make prints but the line drawings for tattoos are ready and I wanted to share them! I will be posting painting progress over the next few days and also added a few of my frogs from Every tattoo comes with a signed canvas print of one of the 4 flash sheets the design was chosen from! The prices are flat rates range from small designs $125- $200-$300 and large designs $400 prints of the series will also be for sale for any collectors not getting tattooed and I can offer free US shipping DM for international shipping.

Celebrating my son Quinton’s high school graduation this month has me looking back as we approach 19 incredible years this coming October in this shop. To celebrate this milestone and thank the community that raised him alongside me, I am offering fixed rates on tattoos from a series of 4 flash sheets of my original designs including a free hand signed and numbered canvas print of the sheet the tattoo was chosen from. Stay tuned as the sheets drop this coming week or shoot me a DM and I can send you the sheets, pricing and info to book before I make the official post! Most of all thank you for your friendships and support over these years as I have raised my boys. I’m looking forward to the exciting transition of being an empty nester dedicated to my art, tattooing and sharing our stories of life along side some good laughs together!

Added onto Nicks arm…. I can’t stress enough how awesome it is to have the opportunity to friends children and connect and watch them grow as years pass and see them develop into adults. Like it’s so cool! The only way I can describe it is- time kind of stands still in my studio and then one of these kids comes in and blows my mind. One second they are 18 getting their first tattoo, then graduating from Mass Maritime and then life-ing and being a grown man while dating my other long time friends daughter. LIKE WHAAAT!!!! lol anyways thanks for always coming back and keeping me in your loop ❤️🥳 Thanks for reading my deep thoughts and I have time for tattoos next week 😆🤣
