Wurlitzer Juke by Graham.
Tattoo career and comics career cross over for the first time when I tattoo a character from my own graphic novel Good Dog, onto my buddy Mark…
You can see more of my comics stuff here:

and, as usual, you can check out more of the tattoo stuff here:
This is a cover-up of a large color tattoo of the goddess Diana - with a larger version of the goddess Diana. I will probably refine the color and shading a bit when it has healed up, but we are essentially there :)
Awesome red tiger, by Graham.
The customer brought in this sketch of a duck and got tattooed on her arm, just as it was - not every tattoo has to be tightly-rendered :)
She already had the bird - we spent an hour or so figuring out how best to frame it and eventually came up with this - totally fun to design and totally nail-biting to execute.
Hope she comes back so I can see how it looks healed :)
Tricky small black and white design from an old bike logo…
This is still in-progress…
Two-headed fawn, from an illustration by 18th-century naturalist, Albertus Seba. I colored this in but need to wait for it to heal to get a decent picture of it - stay tuned :)
Not all tattoos have to be huge…
