Sign Of An Open Eye

Here is some more photos from the amazing Blekk Metal Event this year in Bergen, Norway. These are from one of my favourite shows, Gaahls Wyrd. More shots and alternative versions can bee seen on my photo blog HERE

Unholy Night

Using these holidays to post some stuff on these here old blogs. I guess it is about time and waaaaay overdue.
In November I was a part of a very special and historic black metal and tattoo event in Bergen, Norway... Blekk Metal. Go check out the site to see more about what you missed out on. And miss out you did if you weren't there. This was a once in a life time kinda thing!
Besides being there to tattoo I also brought my camera to capture a few of the bands playing there. Some of these photos have been posted on my photo blog and more will follow soon. Go HERE to see them.
Here is a couple of alternative versions of some of the shots.

Day 31

Got my boy Lucifer back. Had an amazing lunch that turned into an all night dinner with Kinga and Mattias. Good food. Good tunes. Good vine. Good company. Good day. 

Day 30.

Went exploring abandoned buildings today with my Swedish brotha Mattias. Always inspiring to be on photo safari with this amazing photographer. Doesn't matter if it is in Tokyo, Berlin or abandoned hospitals. Always learning something. 

After picking Kinga up we went to see some amazing doom jaaaazz, "Bohren und der club of gore", followed by beer and hangs with good people 

Day 29 maybe I think... Oh it's a mess.

So many days behind and so many photos from today but for now you will have to settle for one because I'm sleepy and I don't know where i put the rest. 

More tomorrow. 

Lunch and beers with my Swedish buddy Mattias. 

... I figured I could just add to the post so here is one more. More beer with Mattias. By the river. So much beer all day. Nice. 

On our way home from ramen at cocolo, we Kinga, Mattias and I decided to drop by Sarah to say hi and have another beer. 

Day 21

What an awesome Sunday. 

Kinga, Lucifer and I had our first full on day off in a loooooooong time. 

Coffee were had. Walked a marked and had beers with our friend Sarah on a graveyard. Ramen for dinner at our favorite ramen place where we got free stuff from our chefs. Soooo awesome. Then walked all the way back home in the nice summer eve. Ended on the couch watching a movie. Not bad at all. 

These two!! Tired after a long day of walking 

Say 20... I think

Sorry for the delay in posts. There was supposed to be some cool shots from karaoke on my birthday... But the place was full so it never happeneded. 3rd yeah in a row where birthday karaoke doesn't happen. I guess it's not meant to be. Still had an amazing day with good people. 

Today's post is of my friend Ashley who did a guestspot here today. 

Day 25

Burning hot Sunday. 

Ice coffe, house fixing and home made burgers and Rambo while the thunder was banging outside. Much needed after 37 c heatwave for two days. 

Day 24

Decorating a living room wall can be a pretty delicate matter at this point... Also one of the only things we could manage to do in this 37 c heatwave. Also icecream, icepressos, cold beer and geek food. 

Day 23

Burning hot day in Berlin. Practical stuff is happening. More moving around and getting rooms ready. So here is some older photos. I would rather shoot this honey than move stuff around 

Day 22

Awesome day. Good tattooing. Beer in the sun on my stairs while our guest artist Scott finished up. Delicious dinner with good company at favorite Italian place. Got a big plate of desert on the house while the owner took lucifer peeing. He loves him. Good day 

Day 18

Tattooed my friend Matt who has gone through some changes and has come out as a new and improved person. In the best way. I love positive new Matt.

Also got to tattoo a new Berliner. Hope it won't be the last time. 

Then my amazing girlfriend Kinga surprised me with an early birthday present and a surprise... She arranged for one of my absolute best friends to come as a surprise!! I love you both!!!!! 

Day 17

Answered emails and a interview all day. And some home improvement. So here is some shots from the living room. 

Day 16

Missed yesterday's post even though it was a good day... Just forgot to take a good picture. 

Today was also amazing! Sunday!! Coffee!! Babes! Much hang. And we fixed a bunch of things in the apartment. 

Hope you all had a good weekend too. 

Green streets and coffee with Kinga and Lucifer. 

Day 14

I forgot to take a picture with the Instax today but I'm not gonna skip the second week anniversary of blogging for the Instax diary. In stead you will have to settle for a picture from Instagram. What?  It's informative and at least there is something. Right? Yeah... 

So here 

I have been working on a new set of rose flash. 

Day 13

Finally got my little boy back. He has been missed. 

Also finally got water in the kitchen. Woooo hooo!

 

For those interested.. There won't be time for walk-ins this Saturday. Only a small one from 12:00. 

There is time next week though so come by. 

Day 12

Present from my Canadian customer. I love my customers. Later I got to hang out with my girl, my friend and colleague, my Canadian friend Sarah and finally got to meet her boyfriend Uno. 

Day 11

Say hallo to my new little friend. Old Austrian military bike! 

Can't wait to ride this. 

Sorry for missing yesterday's post... But no one probably missed it anyway so ha! 

By the way... New items in the conspiracy inc webshop. Go shop!!

June and July Offer

So... as mentioned before I kinda screwed up with my bookings for June and July and that has left me with holes that I can't seem to fill. I tried to tease with free limited prints but no one has taken the bate yet so I am hoping this little tease will help. 
... Did I mention that they will be for free?

So here it is again....

If you want to book an appointment in July you get a special limited print of this girl. Printed on nice Hahnemühle papper. 

Add "July deal" in the subject to get on this one!

For June you get 2 prints since it's super short notice. 

You get the girl and a print of my first Linoleum print on coffee stained Hahnemühle paper. 

Add "June Deal" to get on this deal.

So to get on these deals all you have to do is book an appointment in June or July by sending me a mail with your idea, placement, size and a few dates to work with. 

Onkelallan@gmail.com

If you want to take your chance then I will be painting and drawing new flash this upcoming Saturday  the 20th (from 12:00-17:00), Monday the 22nd, Tuesday the 23rd and wednesday the 24th from 12:00-19:00 o'clock where I will do walk-ins.

Remember that the shop is on:

Hauptstrasse 155 in the 2nd Backyard...go all the way through.

10827 Berlin

In case these days should get fully booked up before hand I will post it the day before here or on my twitter.  

I already have a bunch of line drawings waiting to get tattooed and everything I work on those days will also be available... If someone would want a fresh flash design, straight out of the oven.

So don't worry if you don't know what to get... I can help.

So let's do this! Come get tattooed!

Day 9

Today was a Mumford And Sons kinda day. There was supposed to be a photo of Kingas new tattoo but that has to wait till the next session. 

Day 8

New painting and new Gorgoroth album.

 

Day 7

I almost missed this post due to a sugar crush on the couch after too much icecream. But here is another new painting on its way. Maybe for the give away for June and or July appointments? 

I apologize for the not so good or exciting photo. I'll try to make up for it tomorrow. 

Day 6

Hung out with friends. Hung stuff on walls. Hung lights. Finally got some decorating done in the apartment. Much needed. 

Day 5

One finished. One in progress. One started. 

I'm gonna spoil you with a photo of the finished painting. I'll post a better one soon. 

Day 4

Was too tired to work on my painting after tattooing all day. So here is a photo of photos. Still figuring out how to do this Instax diary.
