Post 50

The last week or so has been nice and busy. Ollie's been in town working with us and will be here for about another week or so.

I've also had a bunch of appointments the last week or so that I've been able to finish or do final touch ups on projects. Now I just need to transfer the files for my website off the laptop and onto the desktop computer so I can update the website....

Here's photos from the last few weeks-

Monday July 5th
- First appointment was touching up and taking photos of Josh's grain elevators.
Second appointment we worked on the bottom of Tyler's Lancaster, and started the background. If you've followed the last month or so, you'll know he's making short work of this project. Maybe one or two more sittings and we'll be done. Saturday July 10- My friend Jon has been really great about letting me touch up and fix old tattoos we've done on him over 6-7 years ago. I owed him a fresh tattoo for being so patient, so I'm really happy to have tattooed this owl sitting on a stack of books for him. Super fun to tattoo. Sunday July 11- I worked on Chris' Moai leg. I forgot my camera that day, but his girlfriend Sarah was there so I'm stealing this awesome photo from her blog.Thursday July 15- Finished Mike's sleeve. We coloured the back half of one of the roses, the skull under his elbow, and his hand. Our total from outline to completion- 6 sessions, we started Friday June 11th and finished Thursday July 15th, one month and 4 days. Awesome.Friday July 16- Started the first colour session on Eric's frangipanis. One more and this tattoo will be done.Sunday July 18- I tattooed this awesome little snake and hourglass on the back of Trent's arm......and then touched up Trish's maple leaves. Awesome that in a month, I should have healed photos of both of these tattoos.

That Grain Elevator is one of the best pieces I've ever seen. Ever!

The best part about that tattoo is that they're the actual grain elevators from her hometown, Hold Fast Saskatchewan. Thanks Steve!
