Jeremy’s Lucky Day

Posted on by

Jeremy went to the tattoo show at the DVA Gallery in Chicago at the end of April, and while there pop artist Mitch O’Connell (“one of the rockinist artists ever”) — who has never drawn on anyone in this context before — drew a bunny on Jeremy’s arm using a sharpie marker.

After Mitch drew it, oMs (below) at Revolution Tattoo and Art Gallery tattooed it permanently in place.

So now Jeremy has an original piece of pop art on his arm, and the first (if not only) “true” Mitch O’Connell tattoo.

  29. I think I like the Tippy the Turtle tattoo more than the MO’C one. Becoming a ‘real’ artist by means of that crappy infomerical was my goal in life when I was six.

  47. At first glance I though the post was about how long had lasted the tattoo…
    “Look, the artist became hairy and beardy before he finished it!”
