Recently discovered this Clockwork Orange tattoo design in my archives. We went with more traditional concept with the client, but I still love this one. Up for grabs!

You already know why you like this.
Some of us learn by doing damage first.
Not reckless. Just wired differently.

There’s a difference between chaos and speed. What looks impulsive from the outside is pattern recognition happening too fast to explain.
Trial, error, impact. It’s messy, but it’s honest. We’re not broken, we’re just not built for slow lanes.
We move, we collide, we adjust. That’s not failure, that’s accelerated learning.

You don’t remove guilt by pretending everything is good. Guilt usually shows up when we lives outside a script we didn’t agree to in the first place.
You remove it by owning the full cycle:

* you chose
* something happened
* now you have material

That’s it. That’s the whole game.
* You don’t control outcomes.
* You control what you do with them after.

People get stuck here:

* “What if I mess up?”
* “What if it was the wrong choice?”

But the real leverage is here:

* What did you gain?
* What did it teach you faster than thinking ever could?
* What part of you got sharper because it went sideways?

That’s where most people choke.
Not on failure, but on wasted failure.

My Saint of Bad Decisions isn’t glorifying chaos.
It’s honoring the ones who:

* make the move
* take the hit
* keep the lesson

And If you think about that, all my art isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being honest. Because being “nice” is a social strategy, not a personality. The cat doesn’t regret jumping. It just lands, recalibrates, and decides where to jump next.

We made the choice. We got the spoils.
What you build from them is the only part that’s still undecided.

By wearing my ink you control intimidation.
You don’t actually have to do anything. The tattoo does it quietly in the background. Every interaction about your tattoo from now on becomes a stage. You control the story, and therefore the perception.

Despite the fact that athletes fall into a very narrow category of people whose lives and performance can genuinely benefit from tattoos (we’ll break that down in another video), they’re usually the first to deny themselves one. The reason is simple: no time for recovery and healing.

When your entire life revolves around training, stepping out of your schedule feels dangerous, almost criminal. Even I often sacrifice the chance to add another piece to my own skin just to stay on track with training. Ironically, the urge to get tattooed hits hardest when you’re at peak condition.

During the off-season, though, athletes tend to slip into a mild state of anxiety or even depression from the lack of activity, which is hardly the best mindset for putting ink under your skin.

Looks like a dead end, right? Not quite. Under the watchful eye of an experienced tattoo artist, you can afford more than just a tiny souvenir tattoo. You can go bigger. Something serious. A full back piece, for example.

Allow me to introduce: Tomas Figueira, an MMA fighter from Portugal. Last week we added another solid chunk to his tattoo. As you can see, the healing process is going perfectly fine, despite his daily training.

Truth is, tattoo artists tend to be overprotective. We often insist on a complete break from training during healing. Not always because it’s absolutely necessary, but because it’s easier to avoid your reality and cover ourselves in case we miss something or fail to catch complications early.

My rule is simple: trust, but verify. Tomas and I stay in touch every single day, so he doesn’t get even the slightest chance to mess up my work.

If you cannot skip training, consider using Chlorhexidine. The one and only antiseptic fighting off airborne bacteria and preventing inflammation that you could use on your healing tattoo.

The routine will be as follows:

•Apply Chlorhexidine to kill any airborne bacteria that might be on your skin.
•Wait two minutes for full effect.
•Wash your hands with soap.
•Wash the tattoo with soap.
•Let the area dry completely.
•Apply Chlorhexidine again to eliminate any bacteria that may be in the water.
•Allow it to dry completely.
•Apply aftercare product.

NB: These antiseptics also aid in drying out scabs. But it’s essential to allow the substance to evaporate, ensuring the gel adheres to clean skin. Prolonged contact of antiseptics with the skin can result in dermatitis, a type of chemical burn, making it crucial to avoid such prolonged exposure.

Stay clean, stay sharp, stay wicked, and heal quick as a roundhouse kick

It took us 4 minutes just to peel the stencil paper off the skin, and about half an hour to assemble it in the first place. Truth be told, we rehearsed it twice. The first fitting session (see the previous post) took several hours and revealed a few hiccups that called for design adjustments. The second fitting session was much faster, but still took more than thirty minutes. As you can see, though, it saved us a lot of headache on tattoo day.

We also discovered that trying to distract yourself from the pain by listening to podcasts through earphones leads to sensory overload and makes it hurt even more. Staying present in the moment, breathing and humming in unison with a coil tattoo machine, swearing, laughing about it, and listening to the right music works better than painkillers. For the customer as well.

A smashing team-building exercise. We continue this Friday.

The part we already have will be presented to the community at
We’re also testing how long the stencil survives. Still there after three days of aggressive showering. 🧼

9 tattoos in two days, bringing the total to 37 tattoos in four years.
Quite a score. All of them are flash designs from my catalog. No custom s**t. Always choose the artist’s flash. I’ll explain why later

While working on this waffle design, I occasionally introduced my customer to the concept of a Slavic Rainbow. She got so enthusiastic about it that I had to draw it just to shake the thought out of my head.

At first I simply saturated the original rainbow, but the tonal cacophony was driving me nuts, even in greyscale.

So I fixed it: the intensity now shifts evenly, smooth and controlled, and your eye can enjoy it instead of filing a complaint.

So now I see that black tattoos help when grounding is needed, while coloured ones boost your energy, if you have any.

Now it’s yours. The “helpful” tattoo flash, charged up for mental health and creative success. It’s strangely calming somehow, innit?

When you’re exhausted, what does your brain suggest?
Rip your eyes out, pierce your ears, or crawl out of your own skin?

Dear Lord, give me the strength to put this flash in my web catalog. Don’t let it go in vain. And by “Lord” I mean the hormonal balance that keeps you calm, focused, and confident. In the name of Witte, and Body, and the Evene Balaunce of Humours.
Amen.

Dear stranger,
