Ribbon of Souls Tattoo – update

I‘ve been spending a lot of time in the cafes of Prague, penciling and inking the Ribbon of Souls tattoo design for friend and client, Chris Lefler.

The pic features about 2/3rds of the eventual design and will be coloured once the inkwork has been completed in a couple of weeks.

Original BRUTE! Artwork on eBay

Every couple of years, I go through my files and put a few original ink pieces up for auction. Here is the the latest selection:

Big MIKE


Another buddy pic, this time of Mike Cusato, a superb guitarist and a credit to his native Wales.

I met him and his buddy Marcus when I was living on Merseyside, UK.

One autumn, we went to a small cottage in Anglesey, North Wales, and recorded low-flying jets from the local air base all weekend.

Great days, great guys…

I scanned the doodle into Pshop, coloured it; ran the black and colour layers through Cutout and then dropped in a Creation background.
