Hey Ventura County, I'm back in town for a bit before going on tour. I'll be at Inkfatuation Tattoo, Port Hueneme Jan 27, 28, 29 from 3pm - ? and maybe another day or two after that. The guys down there are way cool and its a nice shop, and they welcomed me right in. I'm looking forward to tattooing with them for a few days before Gnarmageddon. I will be tattooing there more regularly when I get back in mid March, until the next adventure!
Also I'm super proud to announce that I got a spread in Momento Publishing's new book entitled "Animal Ink," a coffee table book of tattoos with animal subject matter. I love tattooing animal related illustrations. There are some amazing artists involved, and I'm super stoked to have gotten to be a part of it. I think it's available on Amazon.com if you want to pick up a copy.
If you are intersted in what's happening on the Gnarmageddon Tour, just visit the website at www.GnarmageddonTour.com. We have been making calendar and venue adjustments daily, so check back often for new updates. You can follow us on Twitter @ GnarTour too.
ArtJesso.com just went through a redesign and is now up, running, and looking better than ever! She has custom tattoo and art galleries that were specifically design for her website - and they look great!!
