Tattoos

[TJ]

I saw them a few weeks ago at Slim's in SF.  Great show.

Tony is one of my very close friends.  A well dressed chap to say the least!  He writes for GQ style and coincidentally has many Thomas Hooper tattoos as well!

also I wonder what he'll come up with as a first sketch!...

This is another one of mine.

I'm thinking about having Billy do another one similar on my other calf. I highly reccomendation his shop in Paia Maui Hawaii.

Justin, who also works there did this one for my wife.

Man, I'm so saddened Riff had to turn me on to Thomas Hooper. I'm so in love with his work I spend hours looking at it. I'd love to have him sleeve my right arm…too bad he isn't taking clients. Here's a cool look into his studio. I can't quit drooling. Tattoo obsession.

ATTN: Berlin Guys and Gals, Fabian Nitz opened a new Shop in Berlin-Neukölln, it´s called Rose Of No Mans Land. It´s a custom street shop, you´ll get quality tattoos without waiting months for it.

I just spent an hour laughing my ass off at those, then I realized I knew someone on there. Yikes.

[riffblaster general]

Sorry bout that joe!

[joesaintjohn]

^^
I'm seriously in love with his stuff.

[unharmed]

Hooper is brilliant. I have a few of his drawing reference books that are also great.
