Tearing out a septum is no fun (click through for another view of this rejected septum)… On one hand I want to say that this placement was too low to be stable anyway, but then I keep thinking “what if it was a traumatic injury… maybe it’s lucky it was pierced too low!” Either way, ouch!

Eze Nunez Tattoo Collage

Posted on April 26, 2007 by Shannon Larratt

I’ve mentioned it a few times, but I’m a big fan of the tattoo work of Eze Nunez (BME gallery, although much of his work is spread out across multiple galleries). There are a lot of great artists in Argentina, and Eze is definitely high on that list for me! He does the convention circuit as well, so if you’re interested in work, check out his site for a schedule.
