Maurice Sendak Tribute Flash

Maurice Sendak was one of my biggest artistic influences and probably one of the first illustrators I became aware of.  I grew up with Where the Wild Things Are along with his Pierre books and many other of his illustrated books.  When he passed away last week, I was inspired to create some wild beast flash.

Here is is.  I really love how they came out and it reminded me of how much I love drawing monsters.  I would love to tattoo some of these so come and get them at Brooklyn Tattoo!

How to get a tattoo from me:

Commissioned Tattoo Designs

 

I've been asked to create a couple of tattoo designs for people who do not live or are willing to travel to Brooklyn.  Here is one that I created for a nice guy in San Francisco.  The letters represent his wife and two children.

If you do not live in the tri-state area and are unable to travel to Brooklyn to get something actually tattooed from me, you can commission a design.  Since I am not tattooing it, I treat it as an illustration assignment. 
Rates are $150 - $400 depending on size and complexity.  You get two high res files, a stencil outline and colored illustration, to print out and bring to your reputable tattooer.  The finished design will be executed in either colored pencil or watercolor.
If you wish to purchase the finished illustration or painting, I can work that into the price.
You will be asked for half of the quoted price for a deposit.  When I finish the commission, I'll ask you for the remaining balance before sending you the files.  

I want to stress going to a reputable tattooer to get your actual tattoo.  Your tattoo will only be as good on your skin if you get it tattooed by technically skilled artist.  Don't cheap out! If you need help finding a tattooer, I may not be able to personally recommend an artist, but I'll be able to point you towards some reputable shops in your area. Of course it would be more cost effective (tattoo cost wise) to visit Brooklyn Tattoo and have me tattoo it on ya!

Email me to get a price quote and get started on your awesome tattoo!  

Valentine's Day Flash

 New Flash Sheets for Valentines Day!

 

Valentine tattoos for the loved and broken hearted...
 You can get any of these for $60.  If your a couple or pair of friends getting matching tattoos, I will tattoo them for $50 each. 

In addition to whats shown here:
You can get custom sweethearts (two 4 letter words will fit).
Any initials in any script. 
I am willing to do some alterations within reason.

I'll be doing this flash sheet through February.  This is going to be the last of my tattoo specials so get them while they are cheap!  Oh don't you worry, I will continue to paint lots of flash and tattoo really cool tattoos on you, but for a higher rate.

Taking Care of Business...

Taking care of business in a FLASH!
This sheet is a little late for Elvis's birthday, but tattoos ARE forever.  I'll be doing these for $50 for a limited time, so book your appointment at soon!

As I'm nearing the end of my apprenticeship, I really need some more experience with lettering.  I want to get good at the scripty stuff, but I am up for ANY kind of lettering.  I'll be cutting deals left and right on any kind of lettering.  Shoot me an email or book an appointment to take advantage and save yourself a little cash.

New Year / Winter / Apocalypse Tattoos

Happy New Year!  Here's a new tattoo special celebrating the coming apocalypse!  ...And some wintery stuff thrown in the mix.  

 You can get any of these sweet babies for $40 - $50 depending on size. I'll be offering these up at a discount through January.
Any of the FTW/2012s can be separated.  I will do small alterations within reason.  

I'm also currently offering discounts on lettering, so if you ever wanted some fancy script, your girlfriends name, or a bible phrase, now's the time!  

I will do any word or initials for only $50.  Phrases are $10 a letter.  It doesn't have to be the above script.  I can come up with something custom or we can lay it out on the computer. 

You can check out some the tattoos I've done on Flickr.

You can also check out some more of my apprentice flash on Flickr.

I will still tattoo from my other flash sheets for $50 - $60.
