Rafael drove through from San Diego to begin his big project for his full leg sleeve. The theme of the leg piece revolves around beauty, so we started with the angel.

This piece still needs many more hours to go, check the blue eyes,courtesy of Megan Fox..

Thanks to the big homey Rafael, have a safe drive.

Nick drove through from Arizona to add onto his sleeve we started in AZ, inner left bicep. We started it off with graveyard scene, a mourning angel standing next to a tombstone in tribute to his cousin.

Still have a few sessions to  go, thanks goes out to the brother Nick, have a safe drive home. 

Larry came through to slip in a skull amongst some of his old pieces that he already had. Lower left back sleeve, just below the elbow.We chose just to focus on the main points instead of the l full cranium.

Some things in the mix..

Every now and then I need to turn to the old masters to clense out the bullshit. Check out these larger than life Rodin sculptures.

Nobody  goes to museums anymore-Norton Simon was like a ruin, a bunch of half asleep guides and old folk, and masterpieces of art-lost in the darkness .

These pieces became the foundation for the artist that followed Rodin’s work..

Sic…., speaking of masters, you need to check on Cartoon’s blog, (right skull) and see the man at work! Don’t cheat yourself, treat yourself!
