I finished this cool crane cover-up for Jenny a while ago, but somehow didn’t post the end product. The dot work was super fun, and I love the openness of the final design and the shape it creates on her arm. I am always happy to take on new cover-up projects, large or small. Swipe through to see before and after pics and a video of the final look. Thanks again, Jenny! I appreciate the trust! 🐦✨

I’ve been working on updating our website the last week and realized I never posted the final session of Jessie Saylor‘s Blue Ringed Octopus coverup. I love how this piece turned out and I am always happy to take on more coverup work. Swipe through the pics to see before and after. Thanks again, Jessie! I hope you are doing great! 🐙✨

I am super excited to share pics of Eric Loyer’s multi-coverup sleeve totally healed and settled! We took these healed pics a few months ago and I wanted to include before/after pics as well. Coverups are a unique challenge in tattooing, and I am always happy to help when a client needs a change.

It’s been a real pleasure getting to know Eric over the course of his piece and his sleeve is definitely one of my fave recent pieces. Thanks again, Eric! 💀✨
