This week was a tough bastard to get through. For a long time I have managed to keep the pains away. Tattooers knows what I am talking about. The back pains, the muscle pains, the wrist pains and the hand pains but this week I guess I did something wrong and it resulted in a few days of intense back pains. Still had to work and I think in an attempt to not overwork my back I used some other muscles in a wrong way that moved the pain to my arms. This for me is reason enough to take a couch day off. I do have piles of drawing ideas, piles of started sketches, almost done tshirt designs and paintings to be done but thet will all have to wait a bit. There is a full week of tattooing in front of me so I better charge a bit before starting again.
Well that was enough complaining, don't you think?
Now for the more fun stuff. Tattoo pictures.
Martin has become an instant regular. We are almost done with his Satanic sleeve. We are waiting for some laserwork to be done so we can do the last bit. So on his latest trip down from Norway we decided to start what ended up beeing a front piece. Pictures will have to wait a bit but it includes a satanic skeleton pope and some other cool things! I also did an exception and did his hands. No that doesn't mean that YOU can get them done here as well.
Zombie on one hand and sad gypsy on the other.
This is the Straight Edge zombie so if you don't want him to eat your brain all you have to do is drink a beer or light up the joint. No intoxicated brains for this Zombie.
This here fortuneteller chick is sad because she broke her crystal ball. It's the second this month and those bad boys are expensive.
Yesterday Olaf came for his 2 second touch up and got himself a gentleman bird. My original customer had to cancel so there was an opening so why not use it for something fun?
Other pieces was started or continued but I am trying to cut back on the in progress pictures unless it is something that will take a while to finish. Well you can see a bit about one of them on Amalies blog since she got some more flowers on her leg/knee.
For those who have asked about my Instagram my username is Unclea.
One last thing! I need your help. Tattoo Artist Magazine has asked me to do a monthly blog post on their blog. Thing is I can't come up with anything interesting to say. Help me out here. What would you like to hear me talk about? Anything? Email me on onkelallan@gmail.com or just leave a comment but ideas will be appreciated.
See you guys later. Ya'll have a nice weekend.
