I’ve started calling this style “TV Static *insert thing*” Not sure if I’ll find a better name but for now it feels fitting! So here’s a little TV Static Isopod I did the other day. Everytime someone trusts me/wants to from me is so cool :,)
#tattoo #tattoosartist
A tattoo on the outer shoulder. It is of an isopod curled to the left. Its body is segmented into alternative black, gray stipple, and turquoise sections with yellow spikes down the center of them all. Its antennas are a gradient from back to turquoise and its eye is a freckle.

Flash sheet I made recently that I love so much!! Haven’t gotten to do any of them yet but fingers crossed 🤞 #tattoo #tattooartist
A tattoo flash sheet. In the top left is a worm tied into a bow with tears falling from its face. In the bottom left is a hand with long black nails with its palm facing upwards. Stabbed through the center of the palm is a red star flower that comes out of the top of the palm, with the stem curling around underneath the hand. In the top right is a fly stuck into place with a red pushpin looking distressed. In the middle on the right side is a snail with an 8-ball for a shell. In the bottom right is a bow but the center of it has eyes and antennas, looking like a butterfly. Surrounding all the designs is light blue stars and hearts. The same image as before with a blue overlay and prices/ suggested sizes over each piece. The worm a 1-time design with a 4” minimum at $300. The flower a 1-time design with a 5” minimum for $350. The fly a repeatable design with a 3” minimum for $250. The snail a 1-time design for a 4” minimum for $300. The bow butterfly a repeatable design with a 3” minimum for $250.

The contrast in your work is an absolute treat to see and the structure of your designs is always so solid!! I look at your work and am always filled with joy to see such fun shapes and creativity! Here is my baby, her name is Parlsey :)

Worms in the brain! Silly infected Kirby I did on one of my coworkers :) #tattoo
Image shows the upper back of a thigh with tattoos on it. The one in the center is a green Kirby with pink cheeks and swirls on said cheeks. On the top right of their head there is a worm coming out. With a yellow spiky impact around where it’s coming out of Kirby’s head.

not sure how this app works really but here’s some of my recent tattoos! #tattooartist
A tattoo of a dove standing with a heart on the outside of its chest and an arrow pierced through it to the other side. The dove has a trail of tears down its body. A tattoo of the demolition lovers from the my chemical romance cover with one lover on each calf respectively. A tattoo of a teddy bear with thick eyebrows holding a guitar. He has a spiky speech looking bubble behind him with comic dotted sparks coming out from all sides. Tattoo of a skull facing left slightly tilted downward. The skull has a wine of leafs wrapping around it with a few falling off. The skull’s eye has a star coming out of it with shaded beams like its shining.
