I have more to show you than just this, but I couldn’t wait to put it up. I’m so excited about this project! Angela wanted a big, beautiful peacock tattoo on her arm. I am really stoked to work on it again. Check it out:

I’ve been busy the last week or so, but that’s all I’m showing off for now. Other than tattooing I’ve been knitting, hanging out with my guy on New Year’s Day, seeing movies, watching soccer (Everton! Who wants an Everton crest? I’ll cut you a sweet deal), and of course eating black-eyed peas for luck on the first day of the year as well. I didn’t know until I moved up here that, apparently, that’s a southern tradition only. Don’t worry, I got some collards in too.

On the work front, I’ve got a painting date with Alice next week and lots of fun things lined up – today I’m doing a big Pacific Northwest love tattoo on one of our lovely shop-girls, Candace! Yesterday I started a big coverup, of which I will post photos in a few days.

Hope the start of your 2012 has been as good as mine. See you soon!
