Japanese Dragon

From yesterday, but whatever....

Pat's tattooing a dragon today. Oriental style, half leg sleeve. It's the biggest piece I'll have seen him do. He's only doing linework today, using a 5 and dark green and golden yellow for the chest plates. The design is unique, he used koi scales instead of snake scales. This piece is being used to take away from a Hanya head that was done on a whim and almost immediately regretted. Pat also plans on reworking the Hanya to make it look better.


Today, I'm doing a skeleton key, my first one! I plan on using a 5 and dynamic black. We'll see if she has anything to add as far as a reason behind the choice. She brought the picture in so I didn't even have to draw anything for her, just did the stencil and now I'm ready to go. Unfortunately, she won't be here until 5:30.


Pat is tattooing today, a phoenix, on a kids side/ribs. He's hurting bad, but I can't see because Pat is standing and doing the tattoo. So I'm sitting here waiting until Cat comes in or until there is something to do.



So my chick came it for her appointment and all went well.  The tattoo turned out decent, she was happy with it, so all is good.  She said she wanted it because when she was little she was obsessed with The Secret Garden and ever since then she's had a thing for keys.  She also said it's there to unlock the past, present and future.  I got a lot of facebook comments on it.  My friends mostly.  They love me though :)
