I have been getting closer on wrapping up a few projects this has one one more session left. I'm very grateful to have the clients I do and the trust they give me to conquer projects like this, which was started about 3 months ago. Custom tattoos like this can happen with proper follow through and the endurance to make the big investment in their tattoo. Ive been tattooing in Tampa, Florida for six years now and things have been great. We are finishing fun tattoos and starting new ones. If you are interested in getting a custom tattoo done stop by the shop I'd love to meet you and speak in person about what we can do for you!! Thank you for visiting our tattoo blog here at Tabernacle…

Drawings Drawings Drawing!!! Its a part of every day life as a tattooer. But can we start to loosen up the ideas and specifications and start relying on the aesthetics of design fundamentals to bring tattooing to life!! What is the real goal here?!? We should want as tattooers, to generate intelligent aesthetics and flawless tattoo designs, there is a reason many of these tattoos have stood the test of time!! Whatever the case may be, I want to get a little more open minded to design beyond the references of popular culture that are usually brought to me. These references are valid, but I believe I can change some ideas that facilitate these pop culture tattoo designs into images that still convey the idea but also apply a readable…

Sometimes its fun to see how much impact i can achieve with pen and ink its very direct and translates well in to tattooing. With all the shortcuts in art today it a no fake it until you make it process either you can draw or not! The illustration process is at this point in tattooing is going to be the most valid with half breed tracers at best .Who do not seem to understand balance of composition or backgrounds at all. I really enjoy a natural fluent background with an organic feel as if you were born with…

Im really finally getting the opportunity to reflect on some of the things I am truly grateful for, we have been busy at the tattoo shop and for that and our excellent clients Im truly happy.  Tampa has been keeping us busy proving awesome custom tattoos but sometimes its always nice to escape one reality and enter another.  I traveled to Love Hate Social Club in Cork City, Ireland which was an amazing experience, I got to tattoo a lot of really amazing people during my time there.  Love Hate Social Club was founded by Ami James of Miami Ink and Ross Nigel of All-Star Tattoo in Limerick City, Ireland.  While I was in Ireland I had the pleasure of working with Damien Ross of Invisible NYC and Paul O'Rourke…

Tribal Madness!

Tribal Madness!

blog
The Tribal designs we see today come from various Polynesian, Celtic, Borneo, even Native American influences, plus many many more island cultures. Traditionally these were hand poked into the skin and in some native societies it's a "Coming of Age" rite. The designs the person was given allowed them to reach a higher sense of self as well achieve a closeness with their deity or whatever religious being they're into. The tattoo in the picture has a Polynesian feel to it and looks like a piece of armor for this man's chest and shoulder so he can go out and do battle with whatever life throws. Great piece to have worked on!

Actually deriving from Norway and Greenland, the term "Kraken" means an unhealthy creature or something twisted, which squids generally look. But not this guy and if you look closely, he's even accompanied by a few divers in the deep.
