I think my smile at the end tells you how I feel about this one. My first hand painted flash in a while and I'm happy with how this turned out.
I am realizing as I'm posting this I have been out of corporate almost exactly a year. A full year of being my own boss, making art, and tattooing people as my full time job.
I'm so incredibly grateful. Truly. I know being a tattoo artist right now can be difficult but I'd rather have a year of ups and downs in the world of creation than go back.
If you read this far, please comment, share, and save this post to help keep me a float as an artist so I can keep doing what I love.
