Had a really fun day finishing up the remaining bits of ’s cool Pacific Northwest nature piece the other day at ! It was a real challenge to incorporate her existing flower pieces, but I love how everything came together. Swipe through to see the before/after pics. Thanks again, Jamie! I’m super happy to have met you and do this piece for you! 🐝✨

Had a great time doing the finishing touches on ’s rad ribs/stomach piece yesterday at ! We originally started with the two rib panels, expanding and reworking an existing playing card piece on his right ribs. Afterward we designed a complementary piece for his left ribs. We then tied his chestpiece and rib panels together with the central boar and goat piece, transforming the existing pattern on his chest into the horns of the goat. I really love how his pieces all work together, despite being planned at different times. Pretty much everything is healed here, except for some small tweaks.

Thanks again, Andrew! It is always a real pleasure catching up with you, my friend! See you soon! 🐗✨

*the tribal tattoos on arms and chest are not my work.

Really enjoyed catching up with the other day at ! This session we added Bran Castle to finish the top edge of his 3/4 coverup sleeve. We still have a few smaller sections to finish as well as some highlights with white, but I am stoked with how his coverup is coming out. Thanks again, Sam! Looking forward to seeing you again soon! 🐺✨
