For those of you wondering what Santa does in the off season (cutting it kind of close aren’t you Santa?), this photo by my friend Lane at the Berlin Tattoo Convention 2005 may answer your question. For those of you who don’t know, Lane is really a remarkable guy that I think could make big changes in the entire body modification industry over the next ten years. Keep your eyes on him.
Yeah, me to, but swap “burritos” for “sweet mary jane and blowjobs”. This was photographed by Big Rick at the Del Mar (CA) Tattoo Expo in November 2005.
Nice portraits of IAM:andreas-anden and his girlfriend (PS. cute kid too).
My friend Marisa (IAM:FREE) who you also know from the great tattoo couture blog Needled as well as her legal writing on BME is getting married — Vegas style — later today to another friend, the brilliant tattoo artist Daniel DiMattia at Calypso Tattoo (who also has a BME gallery).
Best wishes to both of them and I’m sorry I couldn’t be there.
I’m not so sold on it, but Rachel is a fan of ranch dressing. That said, she’s definitely not as big a fan of it as this customer of long-time BME contributor Chris Govier (check out his portfolio for some nice portrait work by the way) at Dragon Ink in Swansea.
Edit: I messed up my files somehow; this tattoo is actually by Shauncey Fury on Brandon from Across Five Aprils. My apologies to everyone affected!
It is so nice to have all the servers back online!
Is that an octopus in your ass, or are you just happy to see me?
They say that sometimes tattoos are a cry for help…
God Bless Andrew WK.
