Had a fun day with Anja who flew up from Malmö to get tattooed. We got most of her lower arm covered in 3,5 hours, then she pooped out.

When in doubt, use brown and yellow for everything!

I finally got around to cutting together these photos of a shoulder tattoo I did on Marcus a few months ago. Just your average beetle crawling out of a cup. And a flower. I drew the beetle on there so it could walk on his other abandoned tattoos and snap its biters when he does the chicken dance. Good, clean, sterile fun for the whole family!

I started this Japanese 3/4 sleeve today. Really fun stuff. The motives correspond to his family’s birth year animals in the Japanese zodiac calendar. Him and his wife as the tiger and snake, and their three kids represented with (hopefully correct, client’s research) signs on a hanging banner, all in an autumn setting with maple leafs and chrysanthemum flowers and buds. This will also, ironically enough, be a coverup of his western zodiac sign on the upper arm; a scorpion that Nille did back in the day. Ha!

One of my most devoted regulars Nima always has good ideas that I can’t draw in the end so he let’s me do simple stuff like this on him instead. Thanks for paying me to do whatever I want buddy!
