T-shirts

Add comment August 23rd, 2008

After years of designing shirts for people I’ve decided to throw my ring in the hat and do my own thing. I still design for people, I’m actually working with a women for her own clothing line that will be out with in the next couple of months, but I make sure nothing that conflicts with what I am doing personally. Right now I opened a Cafepress site for print on demand because buying and building an inventory is money and space consuming and this lets people order one at a time and have it shipped directly to them.

I am having a site built to show the full catalog and that will let people purchase in bulk from me directly and save them major for large quantities. All designs are tattoo related from tattoo machines to actual popular design themes. I’ll be adding designs every week. The Cafe press site is still being tweaked so bear with it still

A potential client recently told me they liked my work and said they saw some of my stuff on another site. Confused I asked what site and he sent me a link. The link brought me to a pic I did of a custom turtle on a guy’s sleeve.

The site is www.eviltattoo.com. Now I never gave permission to have the photo used and all the photos on the site have no credit given to the artist. On top of all that the site is marketed as free tattoo designs for anyone to use.

I have already sent an e-mail telling them to take it down and I urge any other artist to go through the site and see if any of their art is being bootlegged.

I don’t do a lot of flash designs and I don’t think people would appreciate their art being tattooed on someone else especially if it has a lot of sentimental meaning.

Lets try and put an end to someone steeling our hardwork

Painfully Traditional Koi

The title says it all. Not because he hurt and even though this is my business and I shouldn’t say that and there were some times he wasn’t too happy. The fact of the matter this is the most straight up traditional Japanese tattoo piece I have ever done.

This was artwork taken from a photo of an old Japanese back piece that consisted of just one lone fish. I did this as close too humanly possible in regard to shape, size, color and every scale. I’m very pleased with the final result and in the next months we will be adding flowers and traditional wind and water bars
