A fond “see you later” to Beth. 

Beth came to me 4 years ago for a hand tattoo. She was so confident when she walked in and she sat down and told me about the tattoo she wanted and what it meant to her, and I asked what the rest of her arm looked like so I could design it to fit, she revealed that this would be her first big tattoo. I think she had 1 or 2 tiny linework tattoos, but she was set on her hand. I gave her my typical spiel about hand tattoos when you have no other tattoos, and despite that, she said no, it’s what she really wants. 

Beth was in a really transformative time of her life, she was ready to become who she always wanted to be. Who am I to say no to that? So we did the tattoo. Beth returned to me every 2-3 months for another tattoo for the last 4 years. She’s got her whole arm done and nearly her whole leg, mostly done by myself. We became friends, I saw her life completely change multiple times and I got to hear her work through all the feelings. She is always so incredibly thoughtful and always looking for meaning in everything. She is incredibly fun to work with because she’s so delighted by accidental symbolism and the design process. 

Now, in classic Beth style, she’s blowing her life up again to pursue happiness in Denver, and this is the tattoo we made to commemorate her time in Portland. She wanted a pigeon pinup on a blustery day, sitting on a suitcase with this specific protest frog sticker, and the logo for my shop on it, with love letters blowing around. And of course she only had one spot on the leg it could go. I had a lovely time designing it for her, we were delighted at the red shoes accidentally being a symbol from the wizard of oz, and she happily clicked her heels together before she left as she said “I can always come back”. 

Here’s a collection of the work I’ve done for Beth over the years. I’m so proud of her journey and she’s been so fun to know. I’m so lucky that this is my job and I get to be a part of someone discovering who they are. It’s an honor. Cheers to Beth in her new city. taken in Portland, Oregon by @hotdamntattoo

I did two baba yaga houses as coverups/blastovers the other day, complete coincidence. It just so happened both clients wanted one and neither told me before the appointment, so I got to be a witch architect and had a great time doing it. Here’s one of the two I did. 

I’m going to the @richmondtattooconvention in a couple of weeks as well. I didn’t get a chance to announce it but y’all found out anyway and I’m fully booked already, but if you’re at the show please come say hi! I will have stickers, shirts, and totes as well. 

I’ve started to get so exhausted by social media. I really can’t stand influencer culture and am so tired of all the constant ads we see all day every day. It makes me appreciate my friends and clients recommending things to me that they enjoy, so here’s a few things I’ve enjoyed recently - I got to see both Boy Harsher shows this weekend, and danced my butt off. The new album is pretty fun. I’ve been making quick work of the Dungeon Crawler Carl books thanks to so many of my clients that urged me to check it out. A little over-the-top but it’s a fun adventure. I have been going to Laverne’s a lot and eating the chicken nachos. They are delicious. I’m really looking forward to Wildwood coming out soon. And I’ve found a lot of really great artists recently. I’ll tag some in the comments so they don’t get too many notifications. 

I’m looking forward to a vacation in November. I’m also booking the end of March and into April right now, so start thinking about spring I guess! taken in Portland, Oregon by @hotdamntattoo

Amanda asked if I’d listen to a song they like and design a tattoo based on it, so I did. This is based on Dismantle Me by @thedistillers . I’ve been drawing a lot of bird claws recently too. It’s funny how patterns come up in tattooing. taken in Portland, Oregon by @hotdamntattoo
