Snake and Chrysanthemeum

Started adding some patterning to the snake today...

Kenryu

Finished this backpiece about a year ago (arms not by me)...still need to do clouds in the background, but the main image is complete. Did a session on his leg the other day and forgot to get pics, just photographed this one.

Still trying to figure out how to take better pictures and get rid of flash burn and what not...

In any case, this is what a big tattoo looks like after a year or so of wear (and he is a surfer, so there is lots of time in the sun for this one)...

He's pretty motivated to finish off the rest of his body and we'll be seeing a lot of each other in the coming months.

Goldfish/Peonies/Water

Outlined this sleeve about a year ago.

First session in on the shading since then. Looking forward to getting back in the swing of things. She sits amazingly well and we're both having a good time with it...
