I finally put the finishing touches on Kelly's sle I finally put the finishing touches on Kelly's sleeve. We did the top half, 12 years ago. Kelly decided to bottom half earlier this year. 

It is a thrill to see my work age over time. It's even more thiilling to be asked to do more. 

Thank you, Kelly, for the trust. 

Healed pics in a month or so.

Scott was a customer of mine for about 5 years. He Scott was a customer of mine for about 5 years. He and his wife, Sheila, would come once a year and get tattooed together. They are two of my favorite customers. 

One or the parts of being a tattooist that I love is that when people come to me to get tattooed, that they carry a part of me around with them for life. If the person becomes a regular client, I feel a closeness to them. I never lose sight of the honor they bestow upon me, to mark them for life. 

Sheila contacted the shop and told me Scott passed away on December 7th. 

It is alway a sad moment when I hear a client has passed on. Thank you Scott, for the trust over the years. 

Rest in Peace.

It's been a long year. The most challenging of my It's been a long year. The most challenging of my career. On November 5th 2024, a massive portion of my clientele disappeared. Most have not returned.  It's the first time in my career I have faced a monthly challenge of survival.  I am super grateful for those that have been tattooed. 

Here is a sample of what I have been doing. There is nothing new in this post. Same images I keep posting.

Thank you, Hudson. Fineline hummingbird by Jason. Thank you, Hudson.  Fineline hummingbird by Jason. 

Hudson asked, "What kind of tattoos do you like to do?"

"Traditonal and Japanese are my jam. But to be honest, I just like giving people a nice tattoo. I got into tattooing, because I can draw almost anything."

It's true. The longer I tattoo, the more it's all about the client and their desires, and less about Me and what I want.

The rumors are true. I am old. I listen to old mus The rumors are true. I am old. I listen to old music. I tattoo old designs. 

With age comes experience. 

I saw a post by another tattooist about being old and mediocre.  I am old.  Nothing mediocre here.  I have been tattooing traditional tattoos before they were cool. Fineline black and gray before your Mom wanted a tattoo. 

I have plenty of time available because old school tattooists tattoo until the job is done. These kids and their books closed bullshit. Real tattooists never close. Always busy. Always available. Always grumpy. Always real.
