BUDDHA.

It's a wrap with the brother Drew on his Buddhist half sleeve. Check it out...

MEMORIAL DAY X VEGAS (Iphone edition) .

I spent the last four days in the Tower Suite at the Wynn hotel in Vegas with my fam. Maaaan I'm tired! This extended week end was epic. I wish I could have take better pictures because most of them came out blurry. Why? Because your boy was intoxicated most of the time haha… 4 days of partying with no break, popping bottles in the club to partying hard in the cabana at pool parties! We had so much fun, even though we've been to Vegas a lot lately, it's always a different experience. Now we're back at the studio ready to come up with new tattoos and designs for our new collections. Work!

Grinch and I like to keep a nice smile...

  I love room service!

 Can't get enough of this… I probably ate 8 of those in 4 days…haha

 Work hard play hard

 My favorite to fight the hangover.

 I grabbed a pic of GZA's arm. Still unfinished. 

 You got to keep them clean yo!

First you Turn UP and then… You turn down… haha J' Racks was on one.

FINAL TOUCH.

I did a final touch on this one today.

PRAYING HANDS.

The brother Alex was at the studio yesterday to lay the first session on his chest plate. You can' t go wrong with some praying hands… I still want to do an other pass on it.

CHERUB.

Today David was at the studio to get a cherub piece on his lower back. In order to optimise the space, I chose to freehand the stencil. (Inspired by Chuey Quitanar)

NEW VIDEO.

FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS.

My boy Johnny was at the studio yesterday to get his leg started with a portrait of Johnny Depp from one of his favourite classic movie ''Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas''. Johnny sat like a champ for 11 hours. It was an extremely long night and we ended up leaving the studio at 6 AM! Just to come back at 11 AM to start a new project on another client. Haha.. 

GZA.

It has been really hard to find the time to do a session on my brother Glen lately. Even though we both work in the same building and see each other everyday, we both have been really busy and never have time to work on his sleeve. We managed to pull a baby session on his arm tonight, right before a business meeting. I still have a lot more work to do on this piece and eventually complete a sleeve… Stay tuned.

DOODLES.

I have been so busy lately in between tattooing and working on designs for D9 Reserve. That's why when I have a chance to draw, it's either free handing things on skin or doodling on whatever stands in front of me. Here is some characters I drew with a ball point pen on some brown paper bags. I'm going to try to do more of them so I can build up a  collection and one never knows do a little art show.

LATE NIGHT.

Jeff came from New Jersey to start a half sleeve. I was really happy with the ideas he bought to the table as we managed to come up with a really strong, meaningful piece. I enjoyed working on this tattoo BUT it was one hell of a long night! By 4:30am,  we managed to get it finished!

Enjoy!

SISTINE CHAPEL.

Horacio was back at the studio for a second session. I worked on the gap he had at the back of his arm. I can't wait to finish the entire sleeve. Here is my interpretation of a section of the Sistine Chapel ceiling from Michael Angelo.
