The frustration about not having anything new to post here on my blog has now forced me to make a blog post...without pictures!! Ughrrr..! I hate blogging without pictures but I don't wanna post a pitty picture either. The hard life of a blogger.
It feels like forever since I have finished anything that I could get a good picture of. It seams like I have been starting a tons of things and finished a bunch of old pieces and some new ones where I just couldn't get a good picture because swelling or bleeding or the annoying contrast between old and new. Even though I have posted pictures on my twitter and Instagram it just doesn't feel the same as keeping you dear followers updated. So once again sorry for the absence but it has nothing to do with not wanting to blog.
I wanna use this post for something good anyway. UPDATES!!!
First up: Artshow. I did a flash painting for the Cut N Color for the Tattoo Flash show at The Pretty Pretty Collective in San Francisco. It will be for sale but since we want you people near by to go see it and the rest of the pieces in person there will be no pictures of it until after the opening. Go check it out. It should be a great show with some great artists. I am stoked to have been invited to join. Wish I could be there for the opening! Hopefully we will be able to drop by San Francisco on our holiday this summer and say hi to the nice people behind the last two shows that I have been a part of.
The show opens on March 12. Go here for more details.
Our Japan trip is getting closer! Can't wait to be back in my happyplace!!
Workdates should be kinda in place so if you wanna get something done in Japan then write me an email with idea, placement, size and what dates you are available for. Write me on Onkelallan@gmail.com
As always I will be working with the amazing Ink Rats in Koenji, Tokyo. You can also email Hata on inkrat00@yahoo.co.jp to book an appointment. We will be in Japan from the 30th of March till the 7th of May.
I have also been invited to join the Tokyo Tattoo Convention organized by Tokyo Hardcore from the 29th of April to the 1st of May. Again should you be around and want to get a piece done then send me a mail with placement and Idea but remember that it is on a convention so there will be places that I won't be doing in order to not destroy my back.
More details about the show when I get them.
Bizarre magazine has just finished a thingy about me that will be in an upcoming issue. Looking forward to see the finished print with fancy pictures from the new shop.
Speaking of shop. Some might have seen previews of the new workroom on the Conspiracy blog. It looks amazing!! There is still many things that needs to hung on the walls but it is already looking really really epic. Flora have been changing our drawing room too. Looks better than ever but also needs a few last touches. Drop by to see for your self.
Speaking of Flora: Check out her new and improved website that she made!
I am currently trying to get into making a bunch of paintings for tshirts, prints, stickers and businesscards. Got a few prints that I wanna do but I'm trying to figure out what size and paper and so on. Hopefully soon there will be new goodies to spend your hard earned money on.
It is time for me to go renew my passport and then go finish another old piece that I won't be able to get a good picture of... Sigh...
Thursday and friday should be new one shots so hopefully there will be something new to look at soon.
Until then.

Pit Of Doom!
I have found myself with a few minutes of energy and time to Blog. No new pictures or anything but here is a picture of the pit of Doom where we are supposed to have a front room. We are still debating whether or not to keep it like this but with a small bridge from the door to the office...ad a few sharks with laserbeams and we are rocking. "hi, can I get a tribal armband with a kanji in the...ARRRGGGGG" BZZZZZZZZZZZZAP!!!
Even though we wont have a front room for a couple of weeks we are still getting closer to an awesome shop. We will start moving and finish stuff from this Thursday to Sunday...We gotta be ready for working monday morning so we got to get our busy hats on and get this moving/fixing-up party started!! Yeah!!! If you find yourself wearing said hat this weekend in Copenhagen then feel free to come join us on Schleppegrellsgade 7, 2200 Copenhagen N. There will most likely be a cleaning party and moving boxes and crap party but, hey, if you ain't got nothing better to do, Right?
Amalie and our friend Corey and her friend Sara and I went to this HUGE flea marked yesterday where I found a bunch of the things that I have been thinking about putting on the walls for like forever but the old shop just didn't seem right for this stuff so I was happy to finally be able to do it. I have decided to start colloecting the following:
Old cool keys and locks...specially the more ornamenty kind.
Antlers... You know I loves me some antlers!!
Skulls... well duuuh!!
Big old scissors.
Cool old crosses and rosaries.
I promise that there will be plenty of pictures of this as soon as we get the new shop ready for picture taking!!
I also added a few cool frames to my ever growing collection of frames. Now I just need tp produce stuff won't I?
We got some cool lamps to.
I can't wait to make this shop of cool/mystery overload!!
We also finally got or trip to Japan planed out.
We will be in Tokyo from the 3rd of April to the 3rd of May...mmmmmm...just in time for cherry blossom goodness!! Of cause I will be back with our good friends at Inkrat tattoo. If you wish to book an appointment for a tattoo then please contact Hata at Inkrat.
So that was a bit more update than I have been able to give for a while...I will do my best to keep it up!
See you soon!

Little boxes
Here is a little blog update so you don't forget about this blog.
Busy busy as always with the tattoo making and then also taking care of my wife and trying to make sure that we can have a shop from the 1st of march. Thanks to our friends and handymen it looks like we might just make it in time...well there is still small details to be fixed like the missing floor in the front room. It will come...eventually!
This weekend we decide to do our part to make it look more ready so we joined our painters and, well, painted. Today we also made it to a ginormous fleamarked where we found tons of goodies to put in the new shop. Can't wait to put things on the walls!!! After that little trip we went back to the land of brushes and pits of doom to sling some paint on walls and toilets. We are getting there...
But here is a bit of what I have been putting on people. More later and also more shop stuff soon I hope. 3 more days of work in the old shop and the it's time to move!
Femke from Belgium came back after 4 years to finish her rib piece but since she was finally here she might as well start her other side...so we did. It's a start. A bat and a rose is to be added later...hopefully sooner than later!

Ole's wrestler arm is almost done! Almost!! Awesome!!

Sam dropped by from England. She were kind enough to bring about a ton of candy AND home made cake. AWESOME!! With her home she got this sloth...now named Allan. Thanks Saaaaaaaaam!

Hank came over from Sweden to get his Cello playing antler lady. After a bit of a late start we got her outlined just in time to throw him in a cap so he could make it back to Sweden.
Now, shower and the last episode of the 5th season of Weeds!! Suck that it has to be so short!!
